Newspaper to decline advertising from N.C. Lottery CommissionReply
It was an observation that there apparently has been no net increase in funds from the lottery to MA towns - if there was, there would be plenty of money to keep fire stations open. The fact that towns could afford to keep them open in 1970 before the lottery started but can't now even with additional funding from the lottery shows that the something is wrong with the system of taxes and/or the lottery. The reasons behind it can be investigated and debated but the facts can't be denied.

MegaMillions and Powerball in same state
Texas lottery officials are working behind the scenes to add Powerball to their game lineup. If approved, Texas would be first state to have both jackpot games.

lump sum or annual paymentsReply
It has to do with the present value of money. Over a period of 20-30 years the dollar will decrease in value as inflation and costs increase; therefore you will actually get less than the original dollar that you won. Get the lump sum invest in real estate and let your money work for you in other ways.

Mega Millions at $18 million......Reply
Mega Millions probably saw an increase in multi-draw tickets hoping for a record run which carried over to these draws since the jackpot was hit. Or maybe Mega Millions had starting jackpot Lotto Fever!-weshar75

Powerball (moneyball) or PowerplayReply
It all depends on whether you would rather double your winnings if you win or double your chances to win something. If you play lottery games that have no multiplier you can double your winnings by playing all your combinations twice which is considered foolish. With the PowerBall multiplier you can increase you winnings by 2-5x which is a little better and now with the 10x replacing one of the 5x ball it's even better.
