One billion is even too much, they should give more prizes of smaller amounts.

@LindaOHio - Up to $ 1 million it's free of taxes here. I think that one million dollar is good enough to win.

@LadyDuck It would take us up to $2 million to get a house in the Keys, plus a boat for my hubby. Then before we move, we'd like to fix up our house...then I would like to give a big chunk to St. Jude's Hospital, our local Humane Society, Shriner's Hospital, etc.

After taxes it's around $300 million. I would be happy with $20 million. I'd still have enough to give to charities.

I had yogurt with muesli and fresh fruit for breakfast, spinach salad and chicken for lunch, croissant with jam for a snack, and cereal for dinner.

I think once the lottery gets above a certain amount it should be capped somehow. Winning that kind of money could really mess up someone's life, as counter-intuitive as that sounds!

I fully agree, less money to more winners.

I'd like about $20 million. After taxes we could do/get what we want and still donate to a bunch of charities.

That's a beautiful bird and shot. I wonder how much the winner spent on lottery tickets before finally winning.

I drink a protein shake for breakfast, ate a cheese sandwich for lunch and ate a sausage, egg and cheese biscuit for supper yesterday. I also ate some fresh cherries and a tangerine for a snack. I hope you're enjoying your day.

I thought the power ball winner was from Los Angeles. Food yesterday - Oatmeal with raspberries, and a banana. Lunch - T-Bone steak and baked potato. Dessert - Strawberry shortcake and Lemon Meringue pie.

Maybe so. They said LA. I though it was Louisiana but could be Los Angeles.

That would be very cool. The cash option would be around $300 million after taxes. Could get that house in the Keys, etc. and have enough to give big chunks to our favorite charities.

@JudyEv Yes it is. I figure we could get a really nice house for $2-$5 million. Average price is $500,000. You don't get too much for that.
