Hi,

I'm a journalist working on a piece about the lottery. I assume most people who visit this forum are regular players and I'd love the opportunity to ask you some questions about your playing habits and experience with the lottery. Feel free to inbox me directly. Thanks

Alex

      Hi alralralr ,

                    The reason we all play is to Win and Help ours selves out of Obama's rat hole of an Economy ....

                                                                                                                                                         CW4

        When America tolerates corruption in government, she dishonors the price veterans paid! I am in fact honoring the office of the president when I point out that which corrupts the office he holds. I will never honor any man or woman in office who disrespects the sacrifice of those who put him or her there. Never. And neither will anyone who is a true American patriot.

            Tell me more. What do you do? How often do you play? Have you ever won? Is the lotto the only path to wealth in this country?

                I am a bored housewife, I have nothing better to do with my time, so I pick numbers, I pick numbers for as many states as I can.

                 Since I am really good at clipping coupons and bargan shopping, my husband as no clue as to how much I spend.

                A couple times I had my hair cut off to get extra money for gambling, I used to grow flowers to sell, but I got tired of getting my fingers dirty.

                A poster a few years back taught us the importance of winning 7 dollars, I wonder what happened to him ?

                Good luck with your story.

                          Do you think your college would be interested in a few Chicken-Soup-In-A-Sponge vending machines?
