But seriously now: I did some calculations, and you're right: buying 99 tickets (or at least getting all possible combinations that start with the first four winning numbers) is the way to go. But then again... you'd need absolute rockhard faith in your ability to get at least 4 numbers right, or you'll wash a lot of money down the drain.

Marty: do you have that confidence?
