What the Mega Millions jackpot can get you

What would you do if you won the historic Mega Millions lottery tonight? Well, we calculated a handful of things that $640 million can get you.

With those multi-millions you could buy 2,250 tons of Legos. Forget your dream project, you could build a dream house out of Legos.

iPads? You could buy more than a million iPads, not to mention that extra $10 for every gigabyte above a current $30 subscription is irrelevant to your financial eye.

In addition, you could buy every Apple product in the New York Grand Central Store at a given time. (Every square foot is estimated $4,709, the Grand Central Store is 23,000 square feet - that is a total of $108,307,000.)

For the last 35 years The Orpheum has had $650,000 worth of maintenance expenses each years, that means you could run the theater for roughly 980 years.

You could buy the Chicago Bulls - the team worth is $511 million.

Always wanted to go to an Ivy League school? Here’s your chance, Harvard’s tuition is $38,480 per academic year - that’s more than 14,000 years of education. Here’s to your education, your children’s educations, and your children’s children’s education. Even taking inflation into account, your family would have the best education for generations to come.

Feeling more like an entrepreneur? To fully financially commit to opening a Burger King franchise it is estimated at anywhere from $300,000 to $2.8 million. At $2.8 million, you have more than enough to open one in every state - with $500 million left for operating expenses.

Oprah Winfrey’s purchased her mansion the “Promise Land” for $50 million in 2001, you could have one just as elegant.

You can roughly buy at least 13,722 Lexus convertibles (IS 350 C) - or if one car is enough you can get the a lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 starts at $393,695.    

Also, you could have made the movie “The Hunger Games” - three times. It cost $150 million to make the film.

With that being said, may the odds be ever in your favor.
