    So now with the lump sum payout minus taxes, you could buy the Milwaukee Bucks. There's also a good number of NHL teams you could buy

    Would clear 596 million in TN after lump sum and taxes. I could have fun with that.

    It doesn't take money to post snapchat handles, so I don't think it means you're going to win. Sorry.

    This is the only piece of advice I'll give you guys...

    Invest your money in getting a quality education so you can get a good job. What you are doing now is paying a tax and it is hurting your families.

    Also that ticket was purchased in Illinois .... Illinois isn't paying lottery winners right now. Many people were driving to neighboring states to buy their tickets.

    pretty much everything you do is a gamble.

    But, gambling for fun upsets our country's puritanical sense of justice.
