Of course if I win I will hire the Stones for a private gig. Seriously!

On the 7th day God created The Rolling Stones

I liked Gallagher's line: "People will leave a mini mart holding a lottery ticket...and a pack of cigarettes."

You could in fact afford to hire them for 159 shows and still have $5million left in the bank.

Imagine 6 months of the Rolling Stones playing every night in your garden.

Nate thumbs up

$900 million... for the lump sum, cut that in half and then take out taxes and you're left with $200 something million.

That's still A LOT of money, $200 million.

Somebody has to win...might as well be me. I guess I would have to buy a ticket first, though. Forget that..think I'll stick with publishers clearinghouse.

But will that be enough to buy Gold Hot-SeatsPackage to the next Stones tour (with 'Laminate')????

Or do I still have to rob a Brinks Truck???

I'd pay Gazza, Lukester, and Sweetcharmedlife to come back to IORR. Then I would ban everyone under 5 years. >grinning smiley<

It was mentioned before but I think I could splurge on a private Stones gig. You can bet there would be an interesting opening act, too!

Ah, front row seats for the rest of my life! I got 1 number out of 10, oh well, but you can't win if you don't play!

didn't check myself, but heard that there are 3.5 million possible combos

So it is conceivable that one can buy every possibility and guarantee a win.

But ... you would need to be only winner, or 1 of 2 to profit. And thinking about it, even w/ 1 of 2, w/ taxes etc. there might not be much of profit, if any !

I think I'll just buy $20 worth instead of 3.5 million

The chance to win is 1 in 292 million.

Sweet, that improves my odds, might be able to profit with 1 out of 3 winners, should i decide to buy all probabilities!

... edit, i mean possibilities
