I'm going to win the power ball lottery today and when there is a cure for MS, I'll fly us all to some place in paradise with tranquil, peaceful, beautiful beaches and we can forget we ever had to deal with this nasty disease and all this stress. Stay tuned my friends and cross your fingers!

To win the Mega Millions game in my state one must match 6 numbers 5 of which can exist in one of 56 states each and one which can exist in one of 46 states. This represents a total number of combinations of 56^5*46 or odds of 1 in 25.3 billion. Every man, woman, and child on the planet would have to buy roughly 4 tickets in order to guarantee a winner. I doubt that this would be a productive way of financing MS research.

Did you win? Are we rich?
I had never thought of this as an idea - if only the odds were better!
