It is true that every option has its pros and cons. I feel sometimes one needs to incorporate all of them at different times. When the jackpots are a billion plus, we are all in with serious purchases. When amounts are low, we hope around. Bottom line is to keep it fun I guess.

Thank you for your perspective. As the current jackpots stand, I would not even spend the 500K a year from the annuity. Spending 20K a month is so much for me to fathom. I know there are people that can spend 100K a month on consumer goods and I respect that. After all it's about choices and personal preferences.

will you play the new $5 mega millions?Reply
Time is money and the $5 should cause faster rolls. That being said it isn't the $5 that bothers me it's the rape-a-plier. Having the rape-a-plier forced on every ticket is a huge ick factor which will cause me to turn into a big jackpot player. They should have gone with an optional bigaplier for second prize and a smallaplier for lower tier prizes. It will be several years before the next game structure change so by then I probably will be well trained to wait for the $2 Billio

Texas Lottery bans lottery courier servicesReply
Instead of them worrying about how many machines people have they may need to focus on changing the games that increase their jackpots over time. Maybe they should stop increasing the prize amount when it is possible to buy all combinations. Having a place to go to where they have a lot of terminals printing out tickets is a great thing when you hate standing in line at some store with one or two terminals. Couriers are even better for convenience. More people play the smaller nonjac

The right call would have been to educate the legislature and work with them to eliminate the specific problems with targeted rules. Yeap, that part. The law should not apply to small games like the Pick 3/4 games. Pick 3/4 players should be able to buy tickets online wherever they want to, even if it's in a different country. If we want to take that risk it is our risk to take. Why take our freedom to play away because games where you can buy jackpots which had nothing to do with

Oregon Lottery reveals $328.5 million Powerball jackpot winnerReply
Wise choice for Abbas to take the cash option. If he went with the annuity, he would be 110 years on the last payment, mmh. If I win any of the jackpots in the next five years I would take the annuity . Wish me luck people I will let you know I won

$825 MILLION: Massive Mega Millions drawing set for FridayReply
Yeah, early this morning I thought what a paltry sum those two winners receive. Better than nothing I guess. Todd, thanks so much for the research into these jackpots. No doubt she'll jump up again before Friday night. Now for the morning laugh. Had contacted GA lottery to come to their 'headquarters' in Atlanta and got off Piedmont station where it was nearby. Well it wasn't much of anything. A corner office on the second floor. You could buy tickets there and quite a

Winner who claimed half of $395 million Mega Millions jackpot sues California Lottery for other halfReply
What if there never was a second ticket and it was a made up, announced, second ticket by someone in the office of the California lottery? Does anybody know exactly what happens to the money that does not get claimed? Does the state where a large jackpot does not get claimed get all the money or does it get distributed to all the states according to the number of tickets sold for the drawings since it was last hit? I assume the states already got their share of the tickets sold, before
