Powerball - $550 million and climbing

[BigSkyTaylorPlayer]

Yeah, I know - apparently I have a better chance of being struck by lightening than winning tonight but I bought tickets anyway.

Hmmm, what would I do with that much money (about 1/2 after US taxes).........how much do you think it would cost to rent out the Taylor factory for a UTGF party?  Oh and of course airfare and lodging for everyone and maybe a gift bag full of Taylor guitars......

I'd better be the sole winner tonight then......

I'm game!

Wow, TaylorPlayer!  I am hoping I win, but if I don't, I hope it's YOU! 

My wife insisted I buy tickets for this one.  First time since the week my Mother passed away, almost two years ago... she was just sure "this time will be the one!"     She was 90 years old when she passed. 

I would ask her, "Mom, what would you do with millions of dollars?"

"I would give it all to you kids.  Well, maybe not all, I'd keep a little for myself."   

Good luck, players!

Best wishes,
Jim

Taylorplayer516,
is that sole winner, or is it soul winner?

If you hurry, you can buy an additional ticket with the exact same numbers as your original ticket.
If you have to split the prize at least it would be two for you and one for him, two for you and one for him.

Imagine the face of the other winner when he hears the way they deal it out.
Two for you, one for him, two for the IRS. Two for you, one for him, two for the IRS.

Perhaps this could make a great country song.

It will take 6 weeks for you to receive the lump sum.  (Actually a lump "some of money", not all, just some)

So, perhaps we could plan this Taylor Tour and Party meet and greet for February 14th?
I would love to attend..

Thank you for the invite!!

I played, but since I do not practice, I guess I did not play very well..
