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.
