Apparently the Powerball lottery prize here is $900,000,000.

Kek. Wish me luck.

So how's the lottery in your region?

"If I'm not going to catch a fish, I might as well not catch a big fish."

Same here.

Didn't they say they would be hosting it in a secret location? I don't see what there would be to steal though. xD

I put in 16 for the Powerball but I was thinking 13. And now...the winner was 13...

I dun fucked up

Only had 32. Fail.

Lol. I only spent four dollars, but I actually wouldn't have even known about all this if my wife hadn't told me about it and said to go buy a couple tickets since I never buy them in the first place.

Guess I might as well try my luck again though seeing as nobody won this time around.

With the lottery, you're not paying for a chance to win. You're paying for those glorious few hours where you contemplate what life would be like if you won. 

I'm a Canadian, but if I won, I'd buy reddit and spend the rest on hookers and blow. 

Wanna hear more? 

Take the ad revenue and  my CEO salary, and use it to get more hookers and blow. 

It's times like this I wish CYS had a like button.

That's one hell of a plan...

Someone said even if you bought out all of the numbers for around 500 million you would still make profit, it was on reddit so idk xD

No. Just no. 

Apparently, most people who win the lottery end up homeless or in debt.

It's bad enough that the government does a huge "Fuck you" and takes 30-35%.

I would spend the money on Vidya, Drugs, and Hookers.

At least then when the hookers leave my broke ass, drug addled, STD-ridden self, I'd have a New 3DS XL.

That's because people are stupid and blow it on shit they don't need right after.

True.

You're left with roughly 500 million after. If you put that away, it will generate about 30 million a year. 

I could deal with 30 million a year. 

If you have 500 million, you can live comfortably for the rest of your life, and are free to do whatever you want without the restrictions of a job and time. People have no fucking self-control, and just get dumb shit like a private jet or something, though.

If I won, I'd buy a new PC for Fallout 4 and just use the rest to keep me alive for the rest of my life.

JK, I'd blow the rest on heroin and cocaine.
