I bought 2 tickets just for the fun of it. That kind of money is insane, unimaginable, isn't it? The last time it was big bucks, like $300 million, I bought 2 tickets and won $8.

I bought two tickets also! I think by tomorrows drawing the jackpot will increase since so many people are buying.

I had two numbers, didn't match the POWERBALL which = $.00. The jackpot is now $1.3 billion so guess I'll try again Wednesday

People are buying tickets every day, some more than others. I've only purchased lottery tickets so far in my lifetime four times. I did buy one on Saturday, and plan on going back to work this afternoon to buy one more for tonight's drawing. I don't plan on continuing to buy tickets. I don't need nor want to get into that habit.

That's a crazy amount of money. I won't be buying tickets though. I don't like to gamble away my hard earned money. I worry for the person who does win, though. That kind of money can go to someone's head. I hope they use it responsibly.
