S-B Mega Millions Pool? Estimate >550 Mil

S-B Mega Millions Pool? Supposed to be around 5500Mil (Cash option just shy of 300)

5 tickets = $5 - name them "Striped-Bass.com" or "S-B MegaMillions Pool" & your username and take a LEGIBLE photo and post on this thread.

If we win, S-B gets 10% to purchase 2 fishing houses, one on Block, one on the canal. Maybe more - And site gets setup as a non-profit for evah.

Discussion in last thread about donating 10% of share to Wounded Warriors (or some other worthy Charity). I would donate anyway but that will be left to your discretion.

Rest gets shared by participants of the pool. Any jackpot over 10K qualifies.

Photos and tickets in by 8PM Tuesday.

IN. John wanna make the jackpot 100k or higher? If there are a dozen of us after taxes we would probably only end up with 500 bucks or so and probably a huge PIA trying to coordinate everything. I'd say congrats to someone here if they won 10k and didn't split it up. Just a thought.

I say over 100K too.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

By the way, Jonserfish spelled his own screen name wrong.

Moot point. Payout for lower tiers suck, which is why jackpot is so high...


Match

+

Megaball

Probability

Top Prize

5 + 1 1 in 258,890,850 JACKPOT
5 1 in 18,492,204 $1,000,000
4 + 1 1 in 739,688 $5,000
4 1 in 52,835 $500
3 + 1 1 in 10,720 $50
2 + 1 1 in 766 $5
3 1 in 473 $5
1 + 1 1 in 56 $2
0 + 1 1 in 21 $1

So the pool has to either get 5 numbers or get the whole enchilada for there to be any split.....
Vote for cash option. Annuity payout is escalating payouts spread over 29 years.
Just saying.... for all the dreamers, and in the event that one of us actually got something on our quickpics....

If you can read and comprehend the rules in post #1 then you'll realize the tickets are not valid as they are posted. I will let you figure it out on your own.
