A Chance to Win $375 Million with Mega Millions Lottery Ticket

in #contest6 years ago (edited)

This evening I went to the grocery store and bought myself a Mega Millions lottery ticket for a chance to win the grand prize of $375 Million dollars. A lot people has done well investing in cryptocurrency and some has even said it's like "winning the lottery." So I went and bought the lottery in hope of winning the lottery because the price of Steem has been depressed and the other cryptocurrencies like bitcoins and litecoins aren't doing too hot either.

After I bought my ticket, kissed it, and placed it in my wallet, I thought to myself that I want to share this excitement with my Steemian friends. So I bought another ticket. I want to give you this ticket. Here's your chance to get this ticket. First off, here is the front of the ticket:

The numbers are: 16 19 23 37 52
The Megaball number is: 01

The drawing will be held on Tuesday July 17th at 11PM US Eastern time.

Here is a screenshot of the back of the ticket:

I blacked out the last three digits of the ticket number 32121XXX. So the objective of this game is that whoever guess closest to the last three digits win it and gain yourself an opportunity at possibly winning the grand prize of $375,000,000 (there are also a second place prize of $1,000,000 as well as other prizes).

Here are some other rules:

  • Make your guess in the comment section of this post. Include your country of origin as an option!
  • One entry per person
  • You must make your guess by Monday 10PM. That way the winner can be announced early Tuesday and I can make the necessary arrangement to get the ticket to the WINNER!
  • In case there there is a tie, the first person who makes the right guess is the WINNER!
  • If there are two people who are nearest to the real number, the guess that did not go over is the WINNER!
  • Following the conclusion of this game, I will reach out to WINNER for mailing address.

Here are all of the potential prizes:

069

Isn’t there a song about ‘69?

I don't know :) but its like the yin and yang of numbers right?

I see a lot of players already. Very good! :)
If $ 375 Million belongs to me, I will take a trip to visit you. :) khakha
My pick is: 984

I am sure you can take many trips.

Yeah! So, My number won! lol :)

Haha, I'll let you in on a little secret. You're not even close.. But my guess is that nobody will win tomorrow and it will become $500 millions.

That is great, and we have more hope. $500 , $500 , $500 and $1.000 millions .... and $1.000.000 millions .... and more , more , more . khakha

I only need a little bit.. I would be super happy with just $5,000,000.

I should have summoned the white monster and provide me the 3 lucky numbe hahaha

Hhmm here's my entry and I'm from Philippines.

106

The probability of guessing the correct number is 1/1000.

My pick is: 857

Maybe if we have a thousand people guessed, then at least one person is right right? Assuming nobody duplicated the answer.

Precisely @nuoctuong. But your rule is the closest number will win the game anyway so probability won't apply here.

  • If there are two people who are nearest to the real number, the guess that did not go over is the WINNER!

This is an interesting rule, I learn something new today.

I am sure there are other nuances and situations. That one situation was one I thought was very possible and that was why I came up with that rule. Nothing special.

Does Australia have a big lottery?

The next time that the Mega Millions doesn't have a winner (drawing will be on Tuesday), I think the rollover will be $500,000,000. I'll think of something interesting to do.

The biggest one I have seen was 30 Million jackpot I think. But in Australia winners won't have to pay tax. I never been lucky to win in any kind of lottery (not even the smallest one like $2)

The tax in the USA is fairly steep. I think the top winner will likely pay up to 40% between Local, State and Federal authority. I tend not to think about that because I am sure that I can still do plenty with the other 60% 🤗🤗

Your balance is below $0.028. @dustsweeper is now disabled for your account until you transfer new funds. Check out the Dustsweeper FAQ here: https://steemit.com/dustsweeper/@dustsweeper/dustsweeper-faq

My favourite number~ 899. Thank you

Why not 900? :)

A good guess.

Will I have any chances lol?
Can't sleep now.....waiting.....for the result lol

Hello @nuoctuong
If I buy more than hundreds of tickets now, how much percent my wining chance is secured.

I take that early answer back. I should have looked at my own screenshot. The odd of winning the jackpot is 1 out of 302,000,000. So your $100 ticket that you want me to buy would be like a drop in the bucket. However your odd is positive. So mathematically, you’re correct. This is the time to invest in buying it because the odd is in your favor. That is assuming that some one else didn’t pick the same number and the taxman doesn’t come.

The odd of winning the jackpot is 1 out of 258 million. 😂 please don’t ask what I think you’re going to ask which is for me to buy a hundred tickets for you. Haha.

You think I am joking??

Congratulations to the winner
