The Mega Millions Lottery is now at $640 million dollars. I can only start to imagine what I would do with all that cash!
Well, not to burst anyone’s bubble, but the odds of winning an Oscar are better than winning that $640 million (11,500 to 1. versus Odds of winning Mega Millions: 175,711,536 to 1). Click to see some other things that are more likely to happen than winning the lotto!
1. Odds of becoming an astronaut- 13,200,000 to 1.
2. Odds of bowling a 300 game-11,500 to 1.
3. Odds of becoming president 100,000 to 1.
4. Odds of becoming a Movie Star 1 to 1,505,000.
5. Odds of dying from being left handed (what?) 1 to 4.4 million.
I found this pretty amusing!
What do you think? Have you played the lottery?
“May the odds be forever in your favor!”

yeah, my mom is convinced that a life time of NOT winning the lottery = her luck will be improving.
Some people need the hope, I guess.

I want to know how you die from being left handed.

How is it more likely to become president than be a movie star? From my understanding there are more movie stars than presidents.
guest
the odds of becoming president must vary from country to country. obviously you don’t have the same odds in the USA as you would in moldova.
guest
wait wait wait! i’m left handed… why am i going to die?

You have better odds of winning the lottery than finding true love.

I think it can be fun to play, but it makes me very sad to see people who look at the lottery as an investment, who don’t actually have the money to play the lottery, but keep buying by thinking if they just win, everything in their life will be okay.

sweet I am one in 4.4 million!
guest
Ummm. Is it just me or is there something seriously up with these odds?
guest
