Perspective
The "Mega Millions" lottery jackpot is up to $355 million. The San Jose Mercury News provides this helpful comparison about what you can use the money for if you win (on its front page!):
- 273 Bugatti Beyrons, the most expensive production car, at $1.3 million @
- 17 tickets to outer space, at $20 million a trip
- An 80 GB iPod for everyone in San Jose ($349@)
- ...or... about a day of the war in Iraq
