If I were Filthy Rich
By BabiesatemydingoNSW+31 Wait & see on MM jackpot
I'm on a bit of a lottery stream of consciousness today, so bear with me. Right now Powerball and mega millions are both at $54 million. Now that a mega millions ticket is $5 I'm very curious to see how much faster the mega millions jackpot rises versus Powerball. Normally the prize really doesn't accelerate until it reaches about 500 million or so; I wonder if that trend will continue?

+18 @Leafstride I bet it will go up at around the same speed. People will probably just spend the same amount but on less tickets. But I think big jackpots will stick around for longer with relatively fewer tickets being sold.
