If someone here hits it, we should all split it. Unless I win it. Then I should probably just keep the whole thing.

I have only seen it at $700m. But that was this morning here on the West Coast. Has it climbed? I would imagine it will by tomorrow's drawing.

My hubby bought a ticket this afternoon. He said he had a hunch. I hope he's right!

Good luck everyone; I almost never gamble bot I've got to play this.

If I win, I plan to help SO many people and animals. I only plan on keeping just enough to live in comfort for the rest of the days of my life. I will give the rest of it away to mostly children's charities and research. And, I say this as a promise to everyone, myself, and God.

Estimated jackpot is $1.4 BILLION for the Wednesday drawing. Or a lump sum of $806 million (before taxes).

I bought one ticket for the Saturday game. Will probably buy two for the next drawing.

Winning that high of a jackpot would really do something. I would have pizza delivered everyday!

Well winning a GIGANTIC amount of money like this certainly has its upside. But If I won I'd want to be anonymous. Otherwise, tons of people will be coming out of the woodwork to hound you, and your relationship to those close to you will likely be in upheaval. If I won the jackpot, I'd do what tlc38tlc38 would- I'd keep maybe $20-30 million for myself and wisely give away the balance; starting with organizations that build special homes for disabled veterans, training therapy dogs, St. Jude's Hospital- just for starters. And do something to help the homeless.

But actually, I'd think the next best prize would be the one I'd end up happiest with. The million dollar one. I doubt those get publicized and I could live off this for the rest of my life. And still help others.

But LOL, I'm not holding my breath!
