I don't see a link, but I am told that the odds of my ever hitting the jackpot are equivalent to my getting impregnated by a reticulated giraffe, while riding the IRT in NY.

I'm almost 50 and I've never bought a lottery ticket, ever. What does that say about me?

The link is now visible as part of the original question.
.
The link says, quoting, "The odds of winning the prize, the second-biggest in North American lottery history, are about 1 in 176 million."

I was right about the reticulated giraffe.

Thanks for the points.

I played the MegaMillions on 8-28-09, driving to the Cal-Nev border (45 miles, one way) to purchase 20 lottery tickets in California.
.
None of them won anything at all, but at least I made the effort.
