You know what they say.

If you don’t play, you can’t lose.

Figure the odds.

Now, if the powerball people really wanted us to buy more tickets, they also have a thousand chances at a one MILLION dollar jackpot.

I’d like to see 100+ people win it.
No, I don’t play lotteries.

Any ticket matching the 5 non-Powerball numbers wins $1M ...pre-tax.

If an irresponsible doofus wins it, then hundreds will also win as the doofus blows through cash buying their real estate, goods, and services.

Well, that’s inflation for ‘ya.

$1.2 Billion in ponzi-scheme green-inked-TP fiat, fixed in the case of the “lottery” give away.

“irresponsible doofus”

There have been a LOT of them winning lottery cash, and doing stupid things, winding-up broke and in financial trouble. Such is life.

I bought a ticket. I’m happy to participate in this fundraiser for a citizen of California.

More than likely the winning ticket will have been bought at a Publix grocery store.....it’s uncanny how many times that’s happened.

Does Publix accept EBT for tickets?

Correction. An illegal alien from Mexico, living in California at the taxpayer’s expense, will win the jackpot. . .
