Well the odds of winning is alot larger now. They added numbers to the draw. My guess this pot will reach over 1 billion dollars by the middle of january. The odd before were 159 million, now its 258 million . The change was to create higher jackpots. I had one ticket. Not a winner. But someone , sometime will win it, might as well be me. But not likely to happen. If it did , here is what would happen to me. I would be walking up to lottery redemption office and as i would be opening the door i would be hit by a meteroite that has been floating around the universe for the past 6 billion years, and killed instantly.
UPDATE 12/16/2013
Up to 586 million now!!!

I rarely buy lottery tickets but if I did win one of those huge ones (millions), the people that I care about who have consistently demonstrated that they also care about me, would receive a chunk of it. Unless I knew that the person was careless about his/her spending, they would be handed the money and could feel free to spend it however they wish. Others may have a gift purchased FOR THEM. The relatives or strangers who SUDDENLY appeared at the door would receive zero!

When is too much money, too much? Can you imagine if it did get to 1 billion and you won the whole thing? I will not play because sometimes too much money is just too much. I know, you can give a lot away and help others but that's tricky. Maybe their life is the way it is because it needs to be that way for them to learn something. Changing their life by giving them a lot of money could change their lesson and they never learn it. The spiritual laws I live by would keep me from being a philanthropist and I would be left with the headache of what to do with too much money. I would probably donate much of it to animal shelters, but then I would worry if the money actually went to the animals and not into the pockets of the people running the shelter. It would become a full time job looking after the money to make sure it was spent on the animals.
Good luck to you though. I hope your dream comes true.

I heard someone won it. I live in Mich. Wanted to buy one today ( Sat.) , but there was a mound of snow up against my garage door, and it was still snowing. Don't think I can shovel out till tomorrow ( Sun ) It's supposed to quit snowing at about MN. Would go out and run my snow blower then, but the neighbors prob wouldn't like it. They don't mind waking me up at all hours with their dogs and their guns and M-80s for three weeks before the 4th of July and 3 weeks after it.
