Last Chance: California Lottery Jackpot Hits $540 Million
What would you do with the winnings?

The California Lottery Mega-Millions game has a half billion-dollar jackpot for Friday night’s draw. It's whole lotta cash any way you phrase it, if you win the jackpot you better learn how to say “new tax bracket”.
Hercules doesn't hold one of California's lukiest lotto ticket distributors, but it still has its fair share of stores .
Even if the odds are 1 in 176 million, the big jackpot could mean instant financial security for some lucky person and a chance at some serious philanthropy. If a Hercules citizen wins the jackpot Friday, what would you like that person to do for Hercules?
