Friday's Mega Millions Jackpot Tops Half A Billion

The Mega Millions jackpot has swelled to $508 million for Friday’s drawing–all you have to do is beat 259-million-to-one odds.

Michigan lottery spokesman Jeff Holyfield says, regardless of whether you take the $357 million lump sum or the installment plan, you’d have to try really hard to spend it all.

Holyfield says they don’t dole out financial advice, but they recommend hiring an attorney, an accountant, and/or a financial advisor.
