Let's say you go on a game show and you have the opportunity to win up to five homes that will be built for you. All homes will be equally nice, say, about $250K by Indiana standards. There is a 90% chance you'll win at least 1 home, a 70% chance you'll win two homes, a 50% chance you'll win three, a 30% chance for four, and a 10% chance you'll win all five homes.
Regardless of how many homes you win, the condition is that all of them must be built in different US states. Before the show you are required to give a list of your 5 states, in order of preference. Again, you may win 1 home, you may win 4 or 5, so the order of priority is important. If you win 2 homes, for example, they will be built in the states that are 1 and 2 on your list. You can choose at a later time where in each state you want your houses to be built.
What would your state list be and WHY? Give some reasons for at least a couple of the states you choose.
