No win here either, maybe next time.   Pretty amazing that there's only 1 winner!  However, it seems like she's not getting the full $758 mil, only like ~$440 mil before tax according to the article I read.  I wonder what happened to the rest.

I would not be upset one bit by getting 440 million for doing basically nothing lol.

Wished I had a lucky number to win that jackpot but no luck on winning. Maybe next time.

I read that there were other BIG winners besides the $758,000,000.00 winner.

Six tickets — sold in Connecticut, Illinois, Louisiana, New Mexico, Pennsylvania and the Virgin Islands — won $2 million each.

Thirty-four others across the United States won $1 million.

I wonder what charity she'll choose to give to.
She said she quit her job.
That much would make a good dent in our national debt and help her family.
mmmm - taxes on that much money?

Yes, it's so frustrating!  It's never you, it's never me that wins.  Sometimes I think the lottery is rigged.  Especially when you hear about people winning 2 or 3 times.

Hubby bought 1 ticket and didn't have a single number.

One of the news stations said if she spends $1 million a month, she'll be good for 28 years.  If she makes the right financial decisions, her money will would last through more than 4 generations.

I really feel sorry for her. She's in for a lot of problems down the road with neighbors, so-called friends and her own relatives.   

I wouldn't want that headache and neither would hubby. We'd be fine with a few thousand but it will probably never happen.  :(    :)

I am still holding out hope as I haven't checked my numbers yet.  I really would have to think of lots of creative ways to share that much money if I won.  WHEW that is an obscene amount of money LOL
