Ready to join the jet set? Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot is one way
Mega Millions Christmas gift?
Nope. The Grinch kept that one.
But some lucky person could be a candidate for a profile on a rebooted “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous.” “Lifestyles of the Nouveau Rich,” perhaps?
That’s because Friday’s Mega Millions jackpot is now an estimated $348 million since no one won Tuesday’s night’s $321 million drawing in the national lottery game.
The Christmas numbers in case you haven’t checked: 2, 8, 42, 43, 50 and the Mega Ball was 6.
Friday’s drawing — which has a cash option of $210 million — is at 11 p.m.
In October, the nation was gripped in Mega Millions mania because the jackpot had soared beyond a billion dollars.
Impatient to get your “champagne wishes and caviar dreams” off to an earlier start?
Wednesday night’s 11 p.m. Powerball drawing jackpot is $294 million with a cash option of more than $177 million.
