$7 Could Buy You a Billion-Dollar Fantasy 💰🎰
Well… nobody won Powerball on Monday.
Which means congratulations! We are all still not billionaires. 😂
But the dream continues.
Wednesday’s Powerball jackpot is now $498 million, and tonight’s Mega Millions jackpot remains at $637 million.
Doing some very advanced Niel-style lottery mathematics (also known as counting on my fingers):
🎟️ One Powerball ticket: $2
🎟️ One Mega Millions ticket: $5
Total investment: $7
Potential return?
$1.135 BILLION.
That’s not just life-changing money. That’s “your life gets a completely different operating system” money.
A billion dollars means you can solve problems, help communities, support causes you care about, buy some ridiculous toys, and still have more money than you could reasonably spend.
And yes, even a guy like me has a chance. A guy with 1.5 legs, failing kidneys, and bad eyes (also apparently smaller eyes thanks to my Asian heritage 😂) could still walk into billionaire status.
At that point, maybe even a supermodel would finally answer my messages.
Although knowing my luck, she’d probably just want me for my Corvette collection and beachfront property.
The odds may be terrible, but the dream is free until you buy the ticket.
So who’s buying one?
And if you do win because you read this reminder… remember, a generous thank-you contribution to the guy who inspired the purchase would be appreciated. I accept cash, cars, beach houses, and charitable donations made in my name. 🤣

I Didn’t Win… And You Didn’t Either (Probably) 💰🎰
I didn’t win the lottery.
And guess what? You didn’t either.
How do I know? Because this weekend’s lotto jackpots are still sitting at over $1 BILLION combined.
That’s right, billion with a B. Enough money to put me in a tax bracket where I’d suddenly need a team of accountants explaining tax-friendly countries.
Just kidding, IRS.
Sorta. 👀
Tonight’s Mega Millions jackpot is $604 million, and Saturday’s Powerball jackpot is $457 million.
When — not if — I win, I already have a few plans.
First stop? Camino Real Chevrolet because of the Camino Gals. A Z06 Corvette will do just fine. Yes, there is a ZR1, but even imaginary billionaire Niel still likes a good deal. Some habits don’t change.
Then maybe a house on the beach, because waking up to the ocean sounds slightly better than checking emails.
After that? Helping communities and causes I care about.
At some point, how much money does one person need to stack away just because? There’s a difference between living comfortably and hoarding a mountain of cash you could never possibly spend.
That being said, if the winning numbers hit… no, I am not suddenly available to an eighth-removed cousin from my ex-wife’s side of the family. Also, please don’t invite me into your “once-in-a-lifetime business opportunity” that suspiciously feels like Devil Corp wearing a fancy suit.
Dream big. Have fun.
After all…
