What Would You do if You WON?
By NaughtyGoddess
+50 Mega. Were they lying?

They said the jackpot would grow faster. I know it starts at 50 million now but the way it grows is kind of the same. I don't see any current difference. They raised the current jackpot like 20 millionish but when I look at all the other jackpots before it they've been just a measly 10 millionish jump. Which is the same as before they upped the price. Do you think they''ll end up lowering the ticket price?

+67 @peteysweetusername They were absolutely lying but they won’t lower the ticket price

+45 @818VitaminZ ![gif](giphy|YT3HqAZmjSWKMwpbhV) Don’t buy tickets.

+42 @DumWhtGuy Yep they lied (on several fronts) and once prices go up they won't come back down.

+39 @TXfire22 They assumed it would go higher with sales. Since sales are down the jackpot doesn't grow.

+39 @BIOTS34 Don't buy Megamillions

+28 @Krandor1 I wouldn’t say lied. They may have actually thought that would happen but it simply hasn’t. Whatever calculations they did were plain wrong.

+27 @d_ptsdgotme Please please please quit buying Mega!!! FUCK THEM!!!!

+20 @Son_of_Sephiroth Once I win tomorrow night it won’t matter.

+14 @mmhan91 don't ever buy the mega million even at a billion+

+12 @MaineEarthworm Just put Mega out of your mind. Treat it like it doesn’t even exist. The best case scenario is it folds all together and another $1-2 big draw game replaces it

+11 @Old-Nefariousness-43 No one should buy that ticket, $5 is ridiculous for a ticket

+11 @Hail_of_Grophia Lots of people only play once the jackpot gets big.  I think once a jackpot gets up to $700M, people will start buying tickets at the $5 rate and the jackpot will grow pretty big very fast.   Possible to see a $2.5B jackpot in the next 12 months
