The powerball jackpot is now at $450 million. Do you plan on buying a ticket? I generally don't play the lottery because I don't like to throw my money away since I never win but I think I will get a ticket or two for tomorrow's jackpot. Nothing else, I'll be making a donation to some lottery officials retirement account....

Have to take a chance on that money. I can think of lots of ways to spend it! The key is picking the winning numbers. I'm in. BMaston12

Can't win if you don't play.... I would hate to know i could have been a winner and didn't even try...
-
I usually don't play, but I will probably buy a few tickets.
-
I seriously thought about it. I've bought the dollar scratch off tickets on occasion but not very often. have never bought the powerball though
-
I always playing lottery if the jackpot is higher, who knows I will be the lucky one. :)
-
Yes I am buying a ticket. I just told my wife on her way home from work to go buy some tickets
-
I usually don't when it's that high although I have on occasion, if I buy a lottery ticket it's usually when it's lower because there are few people buying. Those high lottery amounts bring out everyone. I'd be happy with any kind of win. Might buy one, might not. :)
-
I bought a couple of tickets yesterday.
$2.00 worth of fun all day long :)
-
I not buying a ticket I leave that up to my hubby he already bought a ticket. We never win but it would be a shock if we did and our family would definitely share the winnings and some of our friends.
-
im buying tickets to play the lottery ;)
-
I know the odds of winning are out of this world but nits a worth a few dollars to try it anyway
-
I am not big on the lottery as others have said. But yeah I got a couple of tickets. We are talking about half a billion dollars. I can't find a job - maybe I can win the lottery. The way things look right now I have about as much chance as winning the lottery as finding a job. lol
-
I don't need 450 million. just 1 million. I can still invest wisely with 1 million dollars
-
So if you win metsrock69 you will give it all back and only keep 1 million? lol. With that much money I would for sure never have to work again. And no, I would not "invest" any of it. Wouldn't "invest" in stocks or something where I could lose it no matter how much I had.
-
My main priority would be to help people and animals in need. I would donate a very sizeable portion to Africa to help protect their wildlife.
-
With a jackpot like that I had to buy a ticket. Still that is more money than I could wrap my head around!
-
Yes, my hubby and I bought just 5 tickets yesterday. Just enough to have some skin in the game, but not enough to really win anything. The way to go is to go in with a whole bunch of people and buy a lot of tickets, agreeing to share all the winnings. But we don't have time between now and the Powerball drawing to try to get a group together.
-
always play but never win a thing lol Will go buy a few tickets this evening just to say I played :) good luck everyone !!!!

I would not give it back but I would want to share it with other winners. also I would invest in real estate. that is a good investment
-
I'll buy it for fun, I really don't expect to win at all.
-
i bought my ticket and now found out that the jackpot is 500 million. would be nice to win.

I would be happy with $450,000 or even $45,000. Actually I would be happy with an extra $450 to take a vacation with.
I've actually been winning on scratch offs lately so maybe I'll take a chance on this.
-
Yep, I played a few numbers today, but I try to play every week, not just this history making jackpot.
Good luck every one
-
I heard in the news that there's three winning tickets. Well better luck next time.
-
I agree with you, I never get one for the same reason. I always want to buy one when the jackpot is high but I forget.
-
Nah, I can't even win a coupon so why spend?
-
Three lucky tickets were sold. Anyone holding a winner?
