Power Ball

Visit NBCNews.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

Tonight's Powerball is the largest it has ever been. If you could, would you play the lottery? What's the first thing you'd do with $500 billion? Would you give any of it to charity, family members, and/or friends? Who is the first person you'd call if you won?

Yeah I would play the lottery if I was old enough. I wouldn't have no problem paying a couple dollars and maybe actually winning something back. I have no idea what I would first do with $500 billion dollars , I defintley give some to charity that's the right thing to do! I would probably give to my friends before family just because I have a better relationship with them. The first person I would call would of course be Benito. I call him for everything.

I already hate the lottery, I wouldnt play it soley because its a waste of time. Too many people keep struggling over a stupid dream thats never gonna happen. If i did win id buy a nice 2 story house, car and maybe some new electronics. But far away from my family and theres only two people i would ever think of sharing it with. the first person id call would probably be my best friend.

If I could I would play the lottery. The first thing i would do with $500 billion is make sure my mom is straight. Then i would take about 1/4 of the money and invest it. I would give like a couple million to charity and family members. I dont know if any friends would be lucky enough. I would call the lottery people and go pick up my money.

I would play the lottery but if I'm playing for a long time and but if I haven't won, then I would stop playing. The first thing I would do is go shopping, like crazy shopping. I would probably give some to charity because that would be the good thing to do. No family, cause they gonna go crazy. I probably wouldn't even tell them. I would definetly give some to my friends in Southampton. Novody here, I actually don't even like the people at this school. The first person I would call would be my sister or my dad.

If I could I would most defiantly play the Lottery. The first thing I would do with 500 Billion dollars is put a certain amount in savings then I would would give a little bit to my mom and dad, for putting up with all my crap over the years. If I were to win 500 Billion dollars playing the lottery the first person I would have on speed dial would be my Mom.

If I could, I probably would play the lottery. I'm not sure what I would do with all that money. I would probably just hold on to most of it. I don't think I would actually up and leave if I won $500 billion. I would probably give some of it to charity and family members. The first people I would call if I won would probably be my parents.

I would not play just because the chances of winning are so low. I would first buy a new car with my money then maybe move out. I would not give it to charity but I would share with my family. I think I would call my mom.

If I could play the lottery I would, but not invest all my money into the lottery. If I won the lottery, the first thing I would do is save most of it, then take out some here and there. I would give money to charity, and other family members. I'd probably call my dad first if I won, he is the most important person in my life.

Yes I would definately play the lottery. The first thing I would do if I won the lottery would be to buy a brand new truck. If I did win I would not want anyone but my family to know because its a possibility that you would get robbed, and also i would give a few million to each family member and the first person i would call would be my mom, dad, and sister
