But imagine if you give all of the money to charities. The respect you'd get from people almost offsets the huge material loss, not to mention how rich you'd feel inside.

Lol good joke. :D
 
The lump sum cash option is apparently $359 million now, which would you take?
 
I've decided, If i won, the first thing i would do is put in my 2 weeks notice. (i like my job, i wanna let them go easy) when i had time i would fly out to Cali, buy a ferrari (probably a california) Drive it to my friends in Oregon, then drive it home. I live in Michigan and i feel that driving it cross country would rock my sox off! sooooo much fun! and i have the money i can afford maintenance when i get home, and of course i gotta get a Delorean when i get home. *dreams away*

I want to take the payments, that way i have the money for the rest of my life, but the money goes bye bye if i die so.... i guess lump sum. taxes may be a bitch but who cares!

Btw, I also plan to donate to a charity. A LOT to a charity too!

The lump sum. You'll have more money than you could ever spend either way.

Everything is all tied together I'm sure. 47 people won $250,000 though. :dopey:

I still haven't checked my ticket.
 
Going to go buy a couple tickets, and then maybe a $50 million Powerball ticket while I'm at it.
 
Wow that is a crazy amount.


It's up to $500M now.

I'm only doing three bucks this time. Also three bucks on the local lottery. Wish me luck!

Only way I'd do a cross country in a Ferrari, I'd hire Solid Lifters & Michael88 from the "Real Guns" thread as my escort. This is after I have bullet-resistant glass, and kevlar installed on the car.

Sylvester Stallone on cross country: "This is a scary country we live in man."
 
Why haven't you won yet?! :O

You talking to me? :odd: Because it's not the drawing date yet?

:D

I usually don't play these 1 out of 100 million chance lotteries, but the gtplanet hype got me going on a bit!
 
Oh wow, looks like I'll have to go buy myself a few dollars of tickets; I didn't even know that this was going on. I never pay attention to or play the lottery, unless the jackpot is astronomically high.

Funny thing is you will still see those ads on TV saying "PLEASE WE STILL NEED MORE DONATIONS"
 
If I had that much money I'd start my own.
 
I wish I got a ticket although I don't really believe in these types of things. What if one of the people on GTplanet wins. They would have a huge inbox.
 
The jackpot is at $540 million:O right now.
 
Anyone up for a GTP lotto pool? :lol:
 
Even with that much I would not try. I would be better off entering in a giveaway for a computer or a piece of computer hardware. Much better odds than entering the mega millions.
 
Hopefully my purchased ticket will be acceptable for someone who resides in a state that doesn't participate in Mega Millions - Mini Billions.
 
If anyone here wins, would you give a little to GTP? (~5,115,925 USD to pay for lifetime premium for every GTP member)
 
Nah, I think Jordan could be bought off with a cool million for the rest of you.
 
You have to be 18 to participate right?
 
By tomorrow night the payout will be well over 400 mil. Insane.
 
Damn I'm a year short. WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
