In the last 25 drawings the megaball number has been
under #10-7 times 3-3-4-5-7-8-9
#11 to #20-4 times 11-19-20-20
#21 to #30-6 times 23-23-24-27-27-30
#31 to #40-6 times 31-33-34-35-36-37
#41 to #46-2 times 44-46
Not planning on buying a lot of tickets, but trying to figure out my megaball numbers. (Wish I had more statistics) Have already chosen #10 on one ticket for Immortality
Wonder what the chances of 3-20-23-27 coming up again since they are the only ones that have repeated?
Jackpot now revised to $540,000,000 !!!
not a fan of these massive lottery jackpots..
id rather see more people win a few million than 1 person scoop 500 mill..no one needs that kinda money..should spread the wealth more
that just my humble opinion anyway

Harrys99 has won the jackpot
Well, as I'm not a US citizen I can't buy into this lottery (lol). I've always wondered though how it works in the US, as in how much of the total money do the winners get? You guys are taxed on lottery winnings aren't you? and isn't there something about taking a lump sum or amounts over a certain number of years? Gotta admit 500 million seems insane to me.
Here in NZ the lotto is up to a measly 25 million but the winner takes all with no taxes taken off it and it's immediately given in a lump sum. There is a rule here that the maximum it can get up to is 30 million. If no one wins it then, it is spread between second division winners. Saying that, there is a whole lot less people in NZ than the states. Our whole population would rate as one US city's population (lol). Personally if I won such an amount, after giving some to family members, buying a nice house, putting some away for retirement down the track, I'd like to set up a charitable fund. The interest of which each year is given to various charities. I figure even if I give up work (as would be able to afford this), running the charity would provide me with a job which I think would be kinda cool and satisfying.
I'll be happy if I match 2 or 3 numbers
