    We should do a CUF Megamillions pool

    $476 million annuity or $341.4 million cash. We could be richer than Romney.

    It's now $500 million annuity or $359 million cash.

    Mega Millions is one of America's two big jackpot games, and the only one with Match 5 prizes up to $5 million (with the optional Megaplier).

      $269,250,000 after federal taxes. There are no state taxes on lottery winnings in California.

        That would keep construction at City Creek going through December 23rd!

              The site now says $640 million annuity or $462 million cash. If no one wins tonight it will be over $1 billion for Tuesday's drawing.

                That seems like a lot but a billion won't buy you what it use to.

                    I'd like to purchase an NBA basketball team, so who can buy a ticket for me? Why can't you buy online?

                          I'll tell you what it looked like when I buy my ticket. If I win I'm going to throw the best tailgate party for CUF BYU has ever seen.

                              127 people -- how much total $ was contributed?
