There is also a connection between:

There is also a movie called "DUMB LUCK" (2001) with Scott Baio.
The movie is a low-budget ripoff of "THE SQUEEZE" (1987) with Michael Keaton.

THE X-FILES (CLYDE BRUCKMAN'S FINAL REPOSE)
Peter Boyle plays a psychic but he can't
win the lottery.

One of my favorite X-File episodes! He was such a good actor. First time I saw him was as "Joe" and then as the Monster in Young Frankenstein. I don't remember him in Taxi Driver, so I should probably see it again. Of course he'll always be remembered as Raymond's Dad, Frank.
I remember the scene where he buys a newspaper and a lottery ticket, but I can't remember if he ever mentioned the numbers.

There was a movie I once watched, I think it was called "The Berbs".????? The address on a house was 999 and when the door was slammed shut the numbers spun around to read 666. Now the first time I ever saw this movie I actually played 666 the next day and it came up. Hard to believe!!!!!

There was a movie, I forget the name, but it was a really old movie. Maybe made around 1917, but it involved this couple who won the Mega money in the amount of 312 million, and lost it all during the prussian war.
Great movie.
I'll google it, and maybe find the name. It was a silent movie.

Yes, I think I remember that film about the Prussian War. After they lost all their winnings, the Treaty of Frankfurt was signed, since that's all they could afford to eat.
