    "*The Billion Dollar prize, if won at TV show event, is paid over 40 years with final balloon payment. "
    Sounds like a scam, but still.... that's $25,000,000 a year... fack I could handle that for a year or 40.


    SCRATCH that.... I just read the "fine print":

    "The Policy shall provide for payment of the One Billion Dollar Prize over 40 years pursuant to the following payment schedule: $5 million per year for each of years 1 through 20; $10 million per year for each of years 21 through 39 and a lump sum payment of $710 million in year 40 (the "40-Year Payment Schedule")."

    To win you have to guess the exact billion dollar winning number between 0 and 999,999. Fat f'ing chance....

    They probably are counting on you croaking before they have to pay out the $710 chunk.

    Really? The number could be pi = 3.1415926......
    Or any number up to any number of decimal places!
    The possibilities are infinite!
    So the probability of winning is one in infinity!
    Love those odds!

    I think this is a legally binding contract, although you didn't sign it so maybe not, but Imma come knocking if you are on TV, although, i don't know what you look like, so damnit, oh well

    hey, at least when we do win money here it isnt taxed by the government. The US gov will probably get upwards of 50% of the money, that is IF somebody wins.
