    so basically, even at a 500 million price * the chance of winning, the expected value is $285.

    so everyone should buy tickets

    You do understand that you can win something with only 1 number right, don't you?

    My office did a pool for last night's drawing... gave $150 total; won a $7 grand total....

    They're also doing one for this Friday's drawing, $5 dollars a pop, tempting but I'm not sure whether to participate or not.

    Engage in a little soft prostitution by giving extravagant gifts to women I know who I always wanted to bone.

    Take care of my family and closest friends.

    Work on my craft full time as a playwright and actor.

    Maybe see if I can find some partners to bring the NHL to Houston.

    Spent $3 on a ticket and actually won $5 from yesterday's drawing... and spent that $5 to buy another one today.

    Winning even a little bit had me excited.

    Buy a huge chunk of tickets to one Rocket game for the next few years. Disperse tickets amongst Clutchfans members. Dub it the annual Clutchfans game.
