Updated: Saturday, November 23, 2024 01:36 AM
Wall Street is not the only place where fortunes are made and lost these days. One fortune is going to be up for grabs on Tuesday, when Mega Millions has $489,000,000 on the line. The cash option stands at $$225.3 million. Mega Millions' grand prize rose since nobody hit all six numbers drawn Friday night. The winning numbers from Friday, November 22nd, 2024 drawing were 13-20-26-32-65 and the Mega Ball was 02, Megaplier was 2.
Although there was no jackpot winner Friday evening, some players still walked away with big money. There was only one 2nd prize winner from Friday night's drawing, matching the first 5 white ball numbers except the Mega Ball number. The one second prize winning ticket(s) purchased in VA will collect $1,000,000 cash each.
Other major winners Friday night included 7 tickets that matched four white ball numbers plus the Mega Ball and won $10,000. Other prizes won Friday night included 385 tickets that matched four white numbers and won $500. 1010 tickets matched 3 of the 5 lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number.

With 9 prize tiers, there were 1,531,526 winning tickets sold across the nation in the Friday, November 22nd, 2024 drawing.
Mega Millions is a consortium associated with 44 state lotteries. Mega Millions drawings occur every Tuesday and Friday night at 7:59 p.m. Pacific Time. Mega Millions uses a 5/70 (white balls) + 1/25 (Mega Balls) system from which winning numbers are chosen. Each play costs $1. In some states, players can choose to pay $1 extra to buy the Megaplier, which multiplies the prizes 2 to 5 times but not jackpot. The chances of winning is about 1 to 14. The chances of matching all six Mega Millions numbers are 1 to 302,575,350. The minimum Mega Millions advertised jackpot starts at $40 million. The annuity option is paid in 30 equal annual payments. Winners may select one lump sum cash payout option instead.
Not like other Mega Millions participants, all the 9 prize levels of California Mega Millions are parimutuel, rather than non-jackpot prize having a set value. This causes different prize amounts for equivalent winning tickets sold in California when compared to those sold in other lotteries. One example is, the 2nd Mega Millions prizes is a million dollar could pay the winner over $1000,000 due to the pari-mutuel payout system of California lottery. For the same reason, CA state lottery does not have Megaplier like other Mega Millions states.
