Water coolers throughout the country (or at least the 42 states participating in the lottery) are a buzz about the the highest Mega Millions payout in history. Even if you take a lump sum payout, you would still receive over $324 million after taxes. Although we all know the odds are slim, for $1 we can all be part of this historic event. For many of us, it’s all about the “What if’s and What would I dos. What if I won and what would I do with the money. Would I buy a new car, a new house perhaps? Would I keep working at my job, or quit and travel the world?
Before any of us goes out and puts a down payment on something as exciting as a new Ranger boat and Yamaha outboard (Which is what I would do), perhaps you should consider these statistics:
- Odds of winning this lottery are 1 in 176 million
- You are 50 times more likely of getting struck by lightning or 1 in 3000
- You are 8000 times more likely of getting murdered
- You are 20,000 times more likely to die in a car accident.
After reading those statistics, I thought if people believe they could “hit” the lottery at those extreme odds, why would you want to take the chance of dieing in a car accident because of an improper windshield replacement. I repeat…20,000 times more likely to die in a car accident than to win the lottery. Which is why you should choose a Windshield Replacement company that doesn’t cut corners.
