The last week of April is under way, and with it comes that summer itch. The days are getting longer, hotter, and the countdown to summer vacation is ready to kick off. Now, once you’re out of college, summer vacation usually feels out of reach until after retirement. Even if you have kids, a couple of weeks (at most) doesn’t compare to a couple of months!
There is a way, of course, to get those long summers back. Lotteries, like our dear friend Mega Millions, can make it so you needn’t wait several decades before you can have those vacations of yore. The catch is that you must win first, and lotteries often don’t give in easily.
Mega Millions certainly didn’t give in. Tuesday night was ripe for a Pattern encore and a jackpot that rose to $43 million.
