I would love the world to end next year as the Mayans predicted? that means I wont have to finish paying off my car loan and other obligations.

We all know I won't have hit the jp by the end of next year haha lets be honest about it

Awe, congrats to the winning family. It sounds like a great family, too.

Nice job playing the numbers for so long. It gives encouragement to the silly ones here who insist that winning numbers can be picked and QPs are for losers.

I shall keep playing them until the end of the world

The end of the world?

The end of the world is December 21st of next year according to the Mayan Calendar.

But looking on the bright side, all the money you've spent won't matter cuz we'll all be dead.

John is 81,not 60.Norma Jean is in her late 70's.They have been married for 60 years.They ARE old.But that shouldn't mean that they can't enjoy the money.

Congrats to you and your family. The best way to win lotteries is to play the same numbers over and over again. Its beats anything that the so called bright mathematicians can come up with. I have won lots of pick 3s and pick 4s by playing the same numbers. Btw...60 is not old. I know a rich 60 year old with a 30 something beauty. She broke up with her 30 something boyfriend because HE did not have money. MONEY makes difference.

I hope they know where all their kids and grand kids are because they'll be getting calls from people around the world claiming to be one of them in trouble and hurt and needing $1-$5K quick. I've never won a lottery, never had kids and I got one this morning asking for grand pa's help.
