I'm in a pool at work with four other guys.

I try not to think about what I would do if I won a bunch of money, since it would be too much of a let down after somebody else wins. I will say there are quite a few Pontiacs that would be getting restored and there would be a huge garage to keep htem in.

Mike

I am going to buy 2,000 acres with a retired missle silo in which I will convert to my plan B house and all of the Kool PY'ers are invited to party with me and the Hooter Chicks in the silo

Seriously I would finish the remaining roofs that I have under contract and I would then stop and look around and survey as to what I might I can do even better for my family and friends lifes.

I already know that I would get my Wife the best possible medical treatment for her B-cell lymphoma so she can more easily beat it.

Hope that you guys arent mad when I win this lotto

Yep, It would take more than a week for my wife to spend that much. I might actually get to spend some of it. LOL

How much do they cost? I got my wife to spend $10 on them and only got a ticket with 5 numbers is that right? I have never played before.

Oh, the possibilities!

Here's a little perspective for you guys as you go out and buy your tickets for the big one:

Would invest enough money to fund a 100 acre Boy Scout reservation for 100 years

It wasn't me.... Oh well.... I owe, I owe, off to work I go.

The spokesman for the Illinois lottery says three tickets have split the record $640 million Mega Millions jackpot. Mike Lang says the winning tickets were in Illinois, Kansas and Maryland.

He says the Illinois winning ticket was sold in the small town of Red Bud, near St. Louis. The Maryland lottery announced earlier its winner was from Baltimore County. No details have been released on the winning ticket in Kansas.

Lang says each winning ticket was expected to be worth more than $213 million before taxes.

Maryland lottery officials were the first to announce early Saturday that their state sold what could become the world's largest lottery payout of all-time, but it wasn't immediately clear if that ticket holder would get sole possession of the $640 million jackpot or have to split it with other winners.

Carole Everett, director of communications for the Maryland Lottery, said the winning Mega Millions ticket was purchased at a retailer in Baltimore County. She said it's too early to know any other information about the lucky ticket holder or whether others were sold elsewhere in the nation.

The winning numbers were 02-04-23-38-46, and the Mega Ball 23.
