MEGA $$$$

It's on again. $30m megadraw tomorrow night.

Chances of winning the whole $30m are even higher than the wild chances of winning anything in div. 1

So my question is how much would you be happy with if you invested the standard $12 or so for a basic ticket? And what would you do?

I'd spend the $12 on a Kindle book that would teach me how to make money.

I hate self-help books. I'm talking about professional training... I didn't get to be a paid writer without some serious investment in education. :)

hmmm if I won 30 mil.. i'd give some to my parents, only. no other family members or friends, just to mum and dad, and of course some to the father in law. just enough to make them comfortable. then buy a few houses to rent out, throw some into investment savings, then..... i dunno.

Chances of winning the whole $30m

I'm not that lucky but if I did First thing set my family up in one way or another give a donation to crimes against children to help to stop the maggots in this world give some to the cancer foundation then go on another world trip and then try not let it change my personality like it did to a friend of mine; I think thats about it for now.
