But before I give it away.... add on a large office / listening room over the garage, Aleph 2 Turbo v2 ( two chassis per channel, separate power supply, good for 400 wpc), F5 Turbo V4 ( two chassis per channel, separate power supply, good for 200 wpc ), fully tricked out LP12, custom B1K with three inputs, tape monitor and motor driven remote volume.... speakers? I dunno know, several I guess.
Here we go again! Another insanely high jackpot total has built up over many weeks. It will be at least $800 Million. Not quite 1.28 Billion, but you could really buy a lot of hamberders with that much dough... Next drawing happens this Saturday
Australia had its biggest jackpot ever go off tonight. $160M ... three winners. I didn't win, so no aeroplane for me yet.
Imagine all the lost friends and relatives you will regain.
All those hot (and not so much) school girls you idolized and who always ignored you. who now timidly confess they were in deep love of you but you were too shy to ask.
That alone is worth it, even if the Feds and State take 99.999% out of it.
Personally. I don't gamble.
The massive lure of riches and money has been implanted into society's brains, but not mine.
I'm comfortable, money enough to live on and a bit more.
I prefer my Independence, Freedom, and not buying into society's hype of things.

Oh I don´t "gamble", neither at for-money games nor at Stock Market, Bitcoin, whatever; know enough Math for that, remember the Roulette wheel was invented by GENIUS French physicist, inventor, and mathematician Blaise Pascal and he KNEW his sh1t, big time.
That said, and just for FUN, I would spend all of $2 on it, in exchange for some thrills.
Excellent bang for the buck ratio.
Ok, TWO bucks 😉

I had them gnerate random numbers
22 32 48 65 67 and 12
if anyone wins with these numbers, I think it fair to give me 25% of the gross total (before lump sum discount, taxes, etc.)
🤑
I don't gamble either, but you can smoke a cigar and have a nice drink indoor in Vegas!
At the Wynn, they have an outdoor area by the water fall, with gas heaters... it is awesome, You sit, order a drink (you gotta pay for them), light up a cigar and watch the water fall.
I'm really happy that people want to gamble and subsidize my luxury. ;-)
Machine voice translation from a radio comm from a Gulf 6 somewhere over Micronesia.
"hey... hi... this is Tony.. thanks for the numbers. Gotta go.. the stewardess is about to pop another vintage Moet. Oh, the beluga is delicious, although the sevruga is about as good too...... thanks again..."
End of voice translation.
Still no winner(s). The current jackpot is now estimated to be US$1.2 Billion...
I am going to pick up a ticket or two, for "entertainment purposes" 😉

With that money I could buy a G6, fly to Brazil, buy another G6 untracked by the West, fly that to Russia, load up in Svetlana tubes, and then fly it back in two jumps.
Does Svetlana make KT150s?
That’s one very expensive way of getting around import restrictions.
How much of a tube factory can one simply buy for $600 million? (Assume Big Brother takes half).

I was thinking of bringing back some good vodka and beluga too.
No "Beautiful Ukrainian Women" though.
And... can you even build a tube factory in the US anymore?
Probably not, but there are still other places in the world besides Russia, China, and the US. And owning a piece thereof might not be a bad idea, if one had that kind of money to throw around.
You have a chance (say, 1:10^14) per ticket you buy, regardless of how many other are in the game.
That’s minuscule and still infinitely greater than 0.
It is maybe the same as throwing 2$ into the fountain in Rome: you may or may not be rewarded with a VIP-ticket in heaven, except that the lottery is on earth…
