Can't win if you don't play

One of the great things about America are these mulitstate mega lotteries. Powerball is the big one, but Mega Millions stacks up respectably. No one took home last night's whopping prize of $275 million so now the jackpot is growing to a mind-blowing $340 million! Sure, the odds of winning are still as slim as the 6/49 or Quebec 49 but your dollar lets you fantasize about ten times as much cash.

By the way, this ticket I bought ... didn't win a damn thing.
