Homeless guy winning a lottery (This will bring tears to your eyes)

To join the state lottery frenzy, all you need is a dollar, a positive attitude and a vision. Well, in fact, these days many of the games cost a little more than one dollar, but since the jackpots and instant-win games of various lotteries still offer players a fair chance at a sizeable, life-changing prize, most people think of the price they pay for their tickets as money well spent.
A few words on American lotteries
• Most of the revenue earned by a state lottery game is typically donated to charity. • Lotto and Mega Lottery Jackpots are determined based on overall projected income through sales. Income estimates are generated weighing various considerations like recent historic trends, other competing jackpots, the level of implication of potential players, and, believe or not, even weather. • Each instant game has its own unique characteristics, offering different odds and prizes. The overall odds of winning a prize with an instant game are approximately 1 in 5. • All cash prize-winning tickets need to be claimed and collected within 12 months' time from the date of the actual drawing.
The Mega Lottery
To play the Mega Millions Lottery, all it takes is to buy a ticket, pick five numbers between 1 and 56, and a single "Mega Ball" number between 1 and 46. Once you are done, make sure you don't miss the live TV weekly drawings on Tuesday and Fridays, or check the results later in the newspapers or via dedicated lottery sites.
For each Mega Lottery game draw, 50 percent of all ticket sales become prize money, with the Grand Prize getting 63 percent of this amount. The biggest Mega Lottery jackpot ever registered was $315 million, and was won in November 2005.
