The current mega millions jackpot is estimated at $586 million! By Tuesday night's drawing it could surpass the all-time record jackpot of $656 million.

Get out there and buy a ticket, they're only $1!

Facts:

1. The odds of winning the Mega jackpot have changed from 1 in 176 million to 1 in 259 million.

2. However, the overall odds of winning "a" prize have increased.

3. It is estimated that between 65%-75% of the possible number combinations will be in play for Tuesday's drawing.

4. You have to play to win.

I always buy a ticket when the jackpot gets this high.

The feeling of taking part in something bigger than yourself is worth the dollar.

The winner is gonna have a lot of old childhood friends and distant family members all of a sudden taking interest in their affairs and wanting to "reconnect."

If one of you win, please donate the extra $50/month to upgrade ISH servers for enough bandwidth to have 100px avatars, a search function, polls, no need to disable shit when the Heat/Lakers win or lose a game, stuff like that.

If the odds are 1 in 259 million and the jackpot is bigger than that, by all means, spend half your winnings and get 259 million tickets for a dollar. In theory you should have a great chance to win. :oldlol:

I've always found this hilarious about the USA. I remember reading a while back that the winner of Survivor was in trouble since he didn't record his winnings under tax, etc.

From what I understand here in Australia, anything you win or find, is not taxable. Although the interest from the winnings is if it sits in a back account.
I honestly don't understand how some of these lottery winners go broke. If you have even something like $30 mil sitting in a 5% account, you don't really need to work or anything, and can spend your money pretty comfortably.

If I randomly stop posting here, either the Illuminati killed me for being too real or I won this jackpot.
Either way, I'll be in a better place.

Most stores stop selling tickets around 9pm on the day of the drawing, possibly 10pm in some areas. Drawings for the Mega Millions take place every Tuesday and Friday night at 11pm.

I wish. Although laziness is the only thing that stops me from wasting money on tickets. I'm not driving to a liquor store.

It seems like only certain areas ever win. Has anyone in a Watts or Compton or other ghetto areas ever won?

Jackpot ended up being $648 million, just shy of the $656 million record. Two winning tickets were sold, one in Cali and one in Georgia. Jackpot has now reset to 15 million.

I didn't win anything on my tickets.
