JUST CURIOUS, HOW MANY LP MEMBERS PLAY THE LOTTERY TO EARN A LIVING ??? AS A PAST TIME/HOBBY ??? WHAT IS YOUR REAL PROFESSION, i.e. WHAT IS YOUR DAY JOB ??? I'VE NOTICED THAT THE LP MEMBERS WHO LOVE TO PROGRAM LOTTERY SYSTEMS IN EXCEL, SEEM TO BE COMPUTER TECH PROFESSIONALS. WHAT DOES EVERYONE REALLY DO FOR A LIVING ??? I WAS RECENTLY LAID OFF, AND I AM TRYING TO EARN SUPPLEMENTAL INCOME BY PLAYING LOTTERY ONLINE. MY HOBBY, WHICH I WOULD LOVE TO TURN INTO AN ONLINE PROFESSION, IS JEWELRY DESIGN. THANKS. | | |

Just a warning, but I made a topic asking what would you say you did for a living to cover up your lottery winnings, and people said it was rude to ask what someone what they did for a living. I didn't get it, but just a heads up. To stick to the topic. I am a security guard. | | |

I'm an Assistant Mgr. for a major parts retailer and I took this job because I really like anything dealing with cars...especially race cars. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy what I do but, I like running my numbers better. Contrary to some popular beliefs here, I'm not rich, yet, and I'm not really trying to do so. However, I do plan to be well off which is why I've deveoted my total self to this whole deal. It can be done and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Just apply yourself. 'Match | | |

retired...... CNC machinist and supervisor. I doubt anyone is earning a living playing the lottery. The lottery is a hole where all the money goes just like owning a boat. Big John says. You don't hit the number. The number hits you!!!! | | |

FWIW, I don't mind the question. I'm retired now, my occupations were the Army, the Postal Service, and casinos. I worked in Vegas as a dealer and box man (dice pit) and on river boats. I think it's very interesting that we have people from a wide variety of occupations and yet there's a strong common bond- the lottery. Good Luck to all! 
It's Lotto, not horseshoes or artillery!
Close doesn't count! I sell everything at a loss but make up for it in volume

In the daytime I'm a brain surgeon, and at night I'm the senior program director of computer system design for the large Hadron collider. On the weekends, I get paid to design and build 30 million+ dollar telescopes for scientists in 17 different locations around the world. I'm in the process of finalizing the last touches to my fully operatable time machine, and a patent in about a week from now. | | |
