power play is for idiots. I plan on winning the jackpot, or nothing at all

"Each Powerball ticket costs $2 and drawings are held twice weekly at 10:59 p.m. Wednesdays and Saturdays. Five numbered balls are selected from 59 white balls and one red ball — the Powerball — is drawn from 35 balls. Sales of tickets are stopped at least 59 minutes before the local drawing time and winners can select an annuitized prize paid in 30 payments or a lump sum payment, according to its website.

I need to crush the hopeful, childish part of me that wants me to get a ticket every time the lottery is this high.

It really is stupid to buy tickets only when the $s get high. It makes the odds of winning that much more closer to impossible. And what difference does an extra $100 million make? (with all that said, I did by my second lottery ticket yesterday)

How do the odds change when it gets high?

It makes the odds of winning the jackpot by yourself more unlikely.

so with it up to $550mil now, how many tickets does that mean were sold?

Certainly that number is greater than 275 million tickets, factoring government profit and admin costs. what portion of the ticket sales go into the pot?

given the pot size, this means enough were sold for at least every person in the US to have purchased at least one on average.

Haha, I went to get some tickets and ended up getting two. Was going to get more but I only had a five on me and didn't want to dig up change.

RIP $4 NEVER FORGET

Man, I could have bought, like, a sandwich with that. I'm not sure how I can go on now, knowing that.

When it gets this high i'll usually pick up a couple of tickets. The extra joy i get from fantasizing about winning for a few days is worth shelling out a few buckazoids.
