In case you missed it, Mega Millions tickets are all the rage right now. The jackpot has reached a world-record $640 million, and the figure could go even higher before the 11 p.m. EST drawing. If you've sprung a few dollars on it, you certainly aren't alone. The odds of hitting the Mega Millions jackpot are 1 in 176 million, but that hasn't stopped many pro-athletes from buying a ticket or two, too
I'm about to drop 10000 on the lottery and cross my fingers #halfwaytoabillionaireifiwin
