We just saw where the jackpot for Mega Millions has grown to $458 million! The cash option is estimated to be $247 million!!!!
So Bill what do you say we take the few $$ millions we have left in Mosaic public economic development funds and buy lottery tickets? With an estimated cash payout of $247 million divided by 27,360 HC residents (as of 2016) that would be approximately $9,027.78 per resident.
We, the residents, would have a better shot at lottery winnings than benefitting from your economic development ‘vision.’
