I want an F-22 Raptor. Even the mega millions cant buy and fund me that.
Because those fuckers are always grounded. ALWAYS.
I'd open up gas stations around the country and take a loss on selling gas for cheap to under sell them all forcing them to lower prices or GTFO
thats what a lease is forI want an F-22 Raptor. Even the mega millions cant buy and fund me that.
can't afford it? just lease it
money = power
run for senate or congress
BOOM you're flying a raptor
you're thinking too small, you need to expand your options to endless

Maybe because they've sold all possible combinations of numbers?
The jackpot is only 'estimated' as it's calculated as a percentage of ticket sales after federal taxes (the lotto commission's taxes, not yours. They're allowed to operate because they generally fund public projects...like schools), and store profit are taken out.
I would buy two homes. A nice 10 million dollar one here on the east coast and a waterfront 20 mill prop in cali, OPRAH STYLE. Then, a million to my dad/step mom. Same to my mom/step dad, and each of my siblings. There's quite a few people at work I'd give money to. Get a few trust funds set up. About half right off the bat would go into CD's and other long term investments with decent gain and low risk. Then my dream cars/bikes. I'd really like to do some travelling of the world, that'd burn it quicker then most think. Oh and 10 million to the ASPCA so I can not cry when watching commercials.
nobody won on Tuesday and it was 360 mil.. i'm guessing a ton a people played, thus increasing the jackpot..
The problem there is that you eventually end up with spoiled 'old money' spawn that contribute nothing good to society.
This!! 2 or 3 1/4-mile and road tracks in every state. No more whiny punks complaining that they're too far from the track!
The rest would go towards a SuperPAC funding B for pres. (Had to get it in there).
heard on the radio that there will be a winner as every possible winning combination has already been sold. possible multiple winners
how do they calculate the chances too? the website says the chances of winning the jackpot is 1 in 175,711,536
but by my calculations there are 1,075,354,600,320 different number combinations.
5 different numbers between 1-56 + 1 number 1-46. 56*55*54*53*52*46. right?

wiki says
Normal balls (pool of 56) Mega ball (pool of 46)
5 1
Jackpot[13] 1 in 175,711,536 (56C5×46)[14]
and google proves answer:
https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=(56+choose+5)*46

oh. i didnt know about this whole "choose" thing in math. my calculation doesnt weed out the same numbers in different orders. ( like 1,2,3,4,5,20 is the same as 5,4,3,2,1,20)
edit: hmm that didnt work as planned the code tags didnt work as i had hoped
this link explains it in the combinations section. http://mathforum.org/dr.math/faq/faq.comb.perm.html
heres a story from 1992 where some investment group bought 5million tickets with 7million:1 odds and a $27M jackpot. they won.
