What matters is the denominator
Until you buy a ticket, you don't have a denominator so 0 tickets to 1 ticket is infinitely larger than 0.
Then you can add more tickets but the denominator is so fucking low it doesn't matter

The chances of winning the powerball are 1: 292,201,338

292,201,338 x $2 = $564,402,676

For every $564M in tickets sold, there will be one winner on average.

For a lump sum payout of $830M, after taxes you would be taking home $364.5M


The point where it statistically "makes sense" to buy a powerball ticket is when the jackpot is around $1.3 Billion, of course none of this factors in split jackpots if 2 people chose the same winning number.

Yeah, I don't know why the US doesn't either hide the taxes by advertising the final take-home amount or just not tax the winnings (they already skim off the top for ticket sales before adding to the jackpot anyway).
That said, even if I only win 300 million dollars, I'm not exactly complaining. My immediate XMR purchase will spare me worrying about taxes ever again.

Any marketers in here?
I have an idea for an NFT project.
People mint an NFT with 10 two digit numbers on it.
We randomly select 10 two digit numbers with the power of CHAINLINK.
If an NFT has matching numbers then then they win jackpot, which comes from people minting the NFTs.

We get 10% as a tax.
Leave email my bastards.
