He may have it all, but LeBron James knows how to dream.
He says he’s buying Powerball tickets for Wednesday night’s $550 million drawing. James makes more than $17 million a year in salary without having to worry about hitting the numbers. But still ...
“Damn right I am,” he said when asked if he’s buying tickets. “And I’m going to make sure to take care of you if I win.”
Udonis Haslem, while not quite in James’ income bracket — he makes a mere $3.7 mil a year — typically plunks down $200 for lottery tickets. He once won $150.
“Basically it was enough to buy more tickets,” he said Wednesday at Miami Heat practice.
Chris Bosh says he’s taking a pass — “but my wife on the other hand...”
For the rest of us, scrounging for enough dollar bills to buy a few tickets, it’s a big day. Dreamers are crowding mini-marts and grocery stores for a chance at becoming a multi-millionaire, just like the Heat stars.
The chances of winning?
One in 175 million.
