Why does something like winning the $146 million powerball have to be so difficult! It seems so easy to pick 5 #s between 1 and 59 and then get 1 between 1 and 35.. Most people are way off. All I want is to win, is that too much to ask?  | | |

the easy part is losing... and the new powerball isnt that great because yeah there is more to win if ur lucky enough to get all 5 numbers, but for the rest of us we still lose it just costs twice as much. | | |

Yeah I personally don't like the new powerball. However, I live in Florida and MegaMillions is not available here, otherwise I would be playing that for $1. Who do I have to talk to about getting the numbers in advance?  | | |

All I want is to win, is that too much to ask?  Winning is easy once you've done the hard part of picking the correct 5 of 59 numbers with the right powerball, but if that was easy then winning wouldn't be as sweet. * that which happens most * * is most likely to happen again *

Yes. For last night's draw, I at least had all the decades right for my picks (1s 30s 40s & 50s). However, I selected two from 30s and not two from 50s...plus I was only correct with 41. I may have missed the numbers but I feel good that I correctly chose the right decades regardless.. lol

I think my name says it all...and yet I realize that if winning were that easy then we would all be walking around with one extra dollar in our pocket. Maybe less. | | |

Who do I have to talk to about getting the numbers in advance?  You would have to have a friend or relative in another state(someone you could really trust) that has the MM. Come to an agreement on sharing a percentage of the prize together, have them buy the tix for you, repay them for all or whatever you decide to split based on the winnings for so many advanced draws(limit depends on each states rules for advance draws--see their website) retain the original for yourself (give them a copy if you and that person agree to it)...WAAA LAAA !!!! The good ole IRS will probably inquire about the agreement prior to the tix being bought, to make sure its not a "gift", so they get their highest share of tax $$ instead of it being just income. Jackpots...Just Average Citizens Keeping Possibilities Open Towards Security  | | |
