Winning Can Mean Losing? Lotterynightmare
For a lot of people, winning the lottery is the American dream. But for many lottery winners, the reality is more like a nightmare. Winning the lottery isn't always what it's cracked up to be, says Evelyn Adams, who won the New Jersey lottery not just once but twice (1985, 1986) to the tune of $5.4 million.

quick pick is betterReply
I agree with Pick-4_Master; you really can do much better than any machine, with only a minimal amount of effort.There are as many ways to pick lotto numbers as there are different combinations.

I think North Dakotans are just

Did you ever wonder?Reply
pick4, (1) God does speak to those who belong to him, to those who play the game of life by his rules. and yes he uses many means by which he does that to get his point across. knowing how God works, i always question someone when they say that God told them thru another when he usually always tells that person first.
