If one bought $1,800 per week of Powerball tickets since the time of Christ, one would still have a strong chance of having not won the jackpot.
Want to play now?
I bought my nurses $100 worth of powerball tickets. I then gave them a blank sheet of paper and was shocked that act did not recieve the same amount of enthusiasm, as both have equal value.
Pretty similar in your chances of becoming a billionaire any other way..
And yet people continue to try, and if they dont make it, at least they had fun along the way...
To win could also be a nightmare. So many ways to spend it. Many charities, so much that money could help. It would be overwhelming just to have that much money to deal with and oversee. Smart spending to do what to help who?
You'd have to hire full time security right from the start..
1. Everyone in my family would become a multimillionaire.
2. I'd find a few worthy charities and make anonymous donations.
I'd smile lot.
Hillary's fundraising staff would be hounding you probably at least 10 times a day for campaign contributions. That would wipe the smile off of your face.

Never contributed to a Clinton campaign. And I've never heard from them, either.
So much for your failed hypothesis.
I might contribute to Bernie if it looks like he's gaining some traction, though.
I don't know. Part of me want to just get them off the streets, get them a place to live and cash in the bank. I guess it depends on their mental state too. They have to be able to work and support themselves. The home and the cash in the bank should just be enough to get them going for a while. If they have mental problems or other issues that allows them not to work, maybe they can live in some kind of assisted living where they can live a normal life and not worry about basic survival. Maybe pay for 2 -4 year of education for those who want.
You can't help them. They are on the street because they want to be. You can give them a lot of money and a few months later they will be back on the street.
