If I'm the winner I will not wait for 180 days to claim the prize, I will be in their office the following day. I will be extremely happy if I wil win this huge prize. Hopefully my lottery system will give me good numbers.

Okay,,, I suppose that would be my only exception...lol I would love to see someone from here win other than myself and share their story but most people here would do a houdini and vanish.

If I won I'd give a shout out to lotterypost and skip the big press conference and maybe do a interview with the LP site owner..then I would vanish also for awhile.

I wonder if anyone from here ever won? OR... if anyone that has won actually reads all these comments..

Texas has enough Millionaires already, but congrats anyway! Just glad it wasn't a winner from Florida, especially NOT a New Yorker.
