never buy more than 2 tickets. if they are 1 $ each and you only get the powerball you still make a profit.
I got my state tax return back took the change [2$] and won 3$ so the state just gave me more money lols.
you have a much better chance of getting struck by lightening TWICE than you do of winning the powerball. So…
You need to get struck by lightening once. live. get struck a second time. live. then go buy a powerball ticket and stand at the top of a grass field holding a metal pole in one hand and the lotto ticket in the other…
you then have a better chance the lotto than to get struck three times and live.
so your ticket will win or you will die. And that will be the solution to your money problems.
“It’s always fun to see some foolish people by 20-100 tickets at a time for a lottery drawing. The math challenged in this world don’t seem to understand that even 100 out of 175 million isn’t much better than 1 out of 175million.”
It’s 100 times better, moron.
Also, these stats are for just one lottery ticket. Most people who buy lottery tickets buy many throughout their lifetime.
Ha, how about Mega-millions? That’s 175,000,000 to 1.
