This man is probably happy, healthy, has enough money to live good, have embracing friends and family, and have lived a good and satisfying life of 70. He knows the problems too much money brings. If that is the case: He's already rich.

Maybe he just doesn't want the hassle. But if he wants to give it away, there are plenty of good places that could use the donation. That could bring great joy... I'm thinking of the secret Santa from K.C. who used to go to local discount stores at Christmas and hand out $100 bills to people who looked like the needed the money. What a great way to spend your retirement! Captain Lotto "Every day is a good day!"

Sirbrad, I left myself wide open for the crack comment -- your reply was on the money! Come to think of it, a crack addict would have definitely taken the money, spent it foolishly (hopefully, wisely), and died with a smile on his or her face.  -- Bye, bye! When you win, may you glow as brightly as the

Could somebody please tell please tell me, why would you play the lottery if you don't expect to win? I think most people are playing to win. Maybe I'm wrong. Or, maybe they do it alittle different in Germany. litebets I don't remember exactly (again i said i don't remember) but i think in Germany they don't play the lottery like us in the States, in Germany they select the least number..In here you have to match all 6 numbers but i think in Germany they select the 6 numbers that do not match...Or something like that i read...

There have been people in this country who has won a lottery jackpot and didn't want the hassle of dealing with a bunch of greedy people they didn't know hounding them about it. They just never showed up to claim it and allowed the state to keep it or gave the winning ticket anonymously to a charity. * Trying is the first step toward failure *
