What Would You Do With $476 Million?

No one won Tuesday's Mega Millions lottery jackpot, meaning the next drawing will be for $476 million.

We want to know what you would do if you became a "lucky dog" and won half a billion dollars in the biggest Mega Millions jackpot to date.

Last January, players from Washington and Idaho won the second highest Mega Millions jackpot in history of $380 million, also making it the highest jackpot ever won by a Washington player. 

Now, the pot is even sweeter; at $476 million for this Friday, March 30, drawing, Washington's Lottery says it's the largest jackpot in North America, breaking its own record of $390 million.

There were three lucky Washington $250,000 winners in last night's drawing, including two tickets bought at retailers in Spokane and one in Ferndale.

So tell us, what would you do if you won half a billion dollars (before 25 percent taxes)?

RASP is a wonderful group of writers from all walks of Redmond life. They hold an open mic on theRead More last Friday of every month at the Old Redmond Schoolhouse Community Center. Not only do they have featured readers like Kathleen, but the open mic portion encourages anyone from the community to read their work. It's regularly quite good. All those with a hunger to get their work out in the world should attend.
