It is when you consider the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 272 million.

Been a while since I used this formula, but isn't it

Money won x odds of winning-money spent x odds of losing?

(1,000,000,000(1258,890,850))
(2(258,890,849258,890,850))

Comes out to a 1.86 profit via expected value formula

I didn't account for tax or any of the lesser prizes, so that value is inaccurate

Me and my work friends got 4 numbers. $500 isn't a bad return for a $2 or $4 investment, we're all gonna get around $50.

how many did you play in total though? I read one story about back like 10 years ago in my area a guy bought a 1 buck hot dog at a party store with a 100 and said give me the change, 99 in lotto tickets and then he won like 200 mil. that day

I haven't even looked at the winning numbers yet. I'll check tomorrow. If I won anything I'll let you guys know, but I only got 3 tickets with the change that built up in my jar.

Not sure. Depends what I pull out of my change jar. It was enough for 3 tix this time, maybe the same next time since my hand hasn't changed size. Lol.
