Powerball Annuity Makes Good SenseReply
Hey Uncle Jim, That story you refer to reminds me of the title of Toby Keith's newest country CD. It wasn't the annuity that failed them. It was the way they filed their tax returns that cooked their goose. Plus, they were virtually dead broke the day they bought their winning ticket. It's stupid to use one's food and gas money to buy lottery tickets. And as the comedian Ron Wyatt says, "You can't fix stupid." Let's say a person wins a $100,000,000 jackpot and takes the cash. He w

Powerball Annuity Makes Good SenseReply
Oh this is classic! It'll come as no surprise to anyone that I think the Powerball annuity makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. But just for kicks let's take the points one by one: 1.

Probability of a MegaMillions rollover.Reply
The Megamillions has rolled over. The cash value is $a48.9M the annuity value is $265M. The cash value is higher than Powerball's and I doubt that Powerball will catch up again in this run. The previous jackpot reached a cash value of $126.7M, and I did slightly better at my prediction than MM did for cash value size. As before, the lottery continues to rise as if it had skipped a drawing. The jackpot/sales were more consistent with a 14th drawing than a 13th drawing. I will therefore

The Megamillions has rolled over. The cash value is $107.3M the annuity value is $189M. The cash value is higher than Powerball's and I doubt that Powerball will catch up again in this run. The previous jackpot reached a cash value of $92.9M As before, the lottery continues to rise as if it had skipped a drawing. The jackpot/sales were more consistent with a 12th drawing than a 11th drawing. I will therefore treat this upcoming drawing as a 13th drawing statistically rather than as if
