    IN! My family yesterday put in money (there's 30 of us) and my uncles bought tickets and just emailed us a copy of all of them. I'll probably drop another $20 today on my own. Can't win if you don't play! Is it a crapshoot? Yep, but so is electing a president.

    You know what would be really cool and would probably get us on the Today show......If any of you that are playing win, you give a million to the OP. Yes, that would be sooo cool. :wink:

    I'll drop $10 on some occasions when the lump sum is greater than the odds (e.g. >$250+ million). I have done that yet for this jackpot but will play tonight.
    I'm not an avid lottery player, but years ago I created a simple Google Docs spreadsheet. Plug in the jackpot $ and # of winners and it'll spit out how much after-tax income I can safely generate through extremely conservative investments while maintaining principal. My plan would be spend 5-10% as desired (house, car, travel, etc.) and LIVE off of the interest, thus preserving principal essentially forever for myself and heirs.

    *ETA: I wish VA law allowed winners to remains anonymous. Maybe I can at least wear a clever disguise for the photo ops! :tongue:
