$590m Lotto Jackpot Has Gone Off

[ScrummyAdam]

One lucky person got to win the $590m PowerBall jackpot. What would you do with this amount of insane lotto money?

I would without a doubt help the needy, such as the recent tornado victims then put it all on black at a casino

I'd get half of it and spend it on all the things I've ever wanted. With the other half, I might just save the money, give it to a friend, or I'd donate it.

I'm an donkey, so I would keep most of it myself. With that much though, I would probably give about 100k each to close family and friends. The rest would be spent on my dreams. *O*
I have always wanted to do 3 things.

1 - Own a production studio, here we will make games and animations.

2 - Own my own anime and game store. It would have a shop, games room, food court and theater room.

3 - I want to make a school/Tafe where students can learn game making and animation on the cheap.

I suppose in a way, 3 isn't too greedy. xD

EDIT - Lol, it changed my naughty word to donkey. xD

It's an inside job. They rigged it so that a government bureaucrat would win.

Is this the biggest lotto win of all time?

I don't think it's possible for one person to spend all that money. I'd buy a private island and just chill and give half of it away to people who need it.

Do you guys really think it's possible to win the lottery with a system or is it just luck?

When it comes down to it, it's still luck. You would just be narrowing your chances if you were to build a system.
--------

I could build a system, but I would have to seriously analyze the hell out of hundreds of drawings going back a minimum of 3-5 years. I've even thought about it, but couldn't commit.

I would check over many patterns like:
-occurrence of odds and evens
-how many times numbers in each set of 10s show (*,*,32,*,36) (2,3,7,*,*)
-first 5 (21-25) in a 10 set against the last 5 (26-30)
-rare occurrences like all high 40s or 50s (*,43,44,47,48)

...anyways, things like that. You could eliminate half the numbers and just use the remaining ones and just make sets of numbers using those. Its not an instant win of course, but you'd be narrowing your choices and taking away the static numbers. Even if all you can get is 3-4 numbers periodically, its still something.
