I could get by with $110 million or so. Split it up with me and 3 others works for me.

If you are older, the cash option is the best bet

Sort of. If you want to blow it all. But the annuity continues into your estate if you die. So your estate continues to receive the annual value.

Most people start off with lower numbers and then go up. The tickets are setup to fill out that way. 3, 14, 28, 37, 56, and 63

It’s just not right that you win $1.6 BILLION and you only take home $444 million. Which is an amount I could squeeze by on but “the man” has to take his cut even in a lottery.

69 was one of the numbers. That's a winner in my book.

If I win I’m getting season tickets to the Chiefs, a charter airplane deal which is similar to the one Patrick Mahomes, a house in Sedona Arizona near a golf course and then I’ll think about other things I can blow my money on.
