Lottery winners question Calif. Mega Millions prizesNews Story

Her second-prize payout was half that of a California resident who played the same five numbers - 27, 36, 43, 49 and 54 - and also missed the Mega Ball on the same night in the same drawing. That person took home $503,851 before taxes. I thought it was one lottery, equal for everybody, said Givens, of Stark County.

What's with NY Sweet Million??Reply

The odds are about 4 million to 1 to win either second prize in Mega Millions ($250,000), second prize in NY Lotto ($181,000, prize amount given out in latest drawing), and the first prize in Sweet Million. Based on this information, I think NY Lotto and Mega Millions are a better value than Sweet Million (as Thrust posted), because I have a 4 million to 1 chance to win second prize on Lotto and MM while still having
