Powerball jackpot hits $800M, largest US lottery prize ever

Eventually one, however in this case, there will definitely be multiple winners, will match all 5 numbers + the powerball and they are thinking exactly as you "I will never win, chance of me getting struck by lightning is greater!" :)

While the chances are low somebody has to hit.
My mother knows 4 people who hit the lottery for over $1M.
I know somebody whose father hit for over $1M.
 
It's sad to see that this is the only chance for tens of millions of americans suffering from poverty to get a better life. Next american administration needs to do a better job.

Actually the jackpot is only about 1/3 of the money collected. So 2/3 goes to state government spending programs.
So this should give the state government and extra $3.2B to pay to programs.
 
This 1.3 Billion USD figure is a sham

After paying the 37.5% income tax, you will be left with 800 Million USD, and if you choose lump some payment, then the winner or winners will get 500 Million USD
 
Let's not forget that the US government wants a share of the winnings; as much as 40-50% of the winning jackpot belongs to the United States government. It's buIIshit but that's how racketeering works in 'land of equal opportunity'.

I believe it's more than that. 40% to 50% would be stolen from the winner in the form of tax.
 
Just think - Wouldn't be funny if Muslim won the Lottery! Gave it away to American People to show no all american muslims are terrorist!

Well I'm sure right now there are a bunch of groups trying to buy every combination.

Certainly after this drawing many will be more prepared next time.

The lottery should change the paper fill-in tickets frequently to mess them up.
