I have no chance to win because I have never bought a lottery ticket. It is a bad investment. Although, there was a couple who figured out how to beat the system by waiting until the jackpot got so high and the lottery operators did not decrease the odds of winning to match the increased jackpot. There is a movie about the couple called "Jerry and Marge Go Large". True story.
