The Mega Millions Lottery has been won. Mega Millions has been generating hysteria in the United States and with online ticket purchasers with a jackpot of $640 million.
Early reports show that at least one winning ticket was bought in Maryland. According to reports, massive queues were snaking down blocks to buy these lottery tickets. $1.5 billion has been spent on buying Mega Million lottery tickets. The winning numbers on the lottery ticket are 2, 4, 23, 38, 46, and the mega ball is: 23
The winner walks away with half a billion dollars.
The winner will walk away with half a billion dollars if there is a single ticket win. The main difference between the Mega Millions Lottery and the Euro Million Lottery is that EuroMillions is a lump sum lottery since Mega Millions is an instalment lottery. The Mega Millions winner can choose to take a lump sum but then has to accept a lesser amount.
In this case, the amount paid out on a lump sum win of the Mega Millions lottery would be $460.8 million. It has to be said larger than the biggest Euro Million jackpot.
We look forward to the circus surrounding the announcement of the winner or winners of this Mega Million Jackpot.
