    most do not do it right

    Most states require full identity to collect

    5-6 years ago they changed the Mega Millions format so we're going to see $1B+ jackpots much more frequently.

    1 in 302,000,000 chance of winning

    gotta be in it to win it!

    best way to if you win is quickly move and do not tell anybody relatives or friends where you are ............ I truly do not play these huge lotteries i know i'll wind up dead or get met up with some thug etc...

    IF im not ok with like $10,000 a month legally then i sure as fawk do not need hundreds of millions.

    People go nuts buying everything in site brand new high priced cars new house etc.. etc.. some start gambling and might loose it all

    Imagine being able to bet $10,000 or more per hand in Black jack.

    ME now have to be care full playing in local casinos craps tables I have turned $200 buy ins into $3000 and Hundreds every time

    THEY will ban me if i start wacking them for $5000 a day but i have so many casinos to ply at in AC NJ and PA i could do 12 hours in ac all differnt casinos win like $5000 for the day then go the fawk home 1 hr drive next day of course.

    hasnt been done yet as far as i know most high rollers are losing

    You can get around the full identity by having a trust because then you can name the lawyer to collect as the winner.

    If I hit that jackpot I'll go so far off the grid that even a team of Detective Goren's couldn't find me.

    9 players around the country hit 5+0 2nd prize

    There was no jackpot winner in the Tuesday, July 26, 2022 Mega Millions drawing, but 9 lucky players matched the first 5 numbers for a $1,000,000 prize: 1 from California, 1 from Florida, 1 from Illinois, 2 from New Jersey, 2 from New York, and 2 from Ohio (1 with Megaplier). The prize was multiplied to $3,000,000 for the 1 player who purchased the Megaplier

    What’s crazy do you know how easy it is to blow that money within five years if you win and be broke and have massive tax issues also

    The first thing you need to do is hire the best financial expert in the United States and the best financial attorney in the United States and then they’ll give you all a loopholes

    You’ll probably have to move to a place like Montecarlo

    Even though a lot of people won’t like it you’re gonna have to lock in a lot of that money so you can’t touch it for a while to create discipline

    And the point of gambling if you win a billion dollars would be what. To kill time because you will be bored to tears anyway within days.

    Buying a bunch of tickets doesn't increase your odds of winning. Only takes one line $2 to win

    Lottery fever is sweeping the country. The Mega Millions jackpot sits at $1.02 billion, becoming the fourth largest jackpot in U.S. lottery history. The lucky winner would have the choice to either receive $1.02 billion with the annuity option or an estimated $602.5 million with the cash option. Lottery expert Richard Wheeler says if you want the jackpot, don't pick birthday numbers. Wheeler also says buying tickets with a bunch of co-workers or friends could increase your chances.
