I also took his word for it. Who knows, maybe he survived stage 4 cancer and is now truly appreciative of a good health than all the money in the world. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that some millionaires play the lottery too

Id have to say the opposite on this one faber98. Big winners say they are going to give to causes, charities, and churches in an attempt to be politically correct and not be hated. This does not get people to leave you alone quite the opposite. It makes you look like a weak minded easy pickings stool piqeon. Everyone will come out of the woodwork at you looking for easy money.

Id suggest get tough and tell them the only charity is what you see me . Also anyone contacting me will be hit with p... [ More ]

Winning the lottery is no doubt a meaningful coincidence, in a world of random probabilities.

If money isn't important than why even play the lottery? This guy is an arrogant idiot who simply got lucky and is still peeved about being so close to winning the jackpot.

faber98 — Sun, 14 Jun 2015 13:46:58 GMT

winners who say they are going to give large amounts to charity or help disabled kids seldom do very much. they just say that to deflect attention from them from people trying to figure out a way to get their hands on it. somewhat of a smart move to get people to leave you alone. meanwhile he will buy a house with rooms he will never go into, furniture he will never sit in, cars he will seldom drive. he won and can do what he wants with it, but the money isn't important comment wasn't necessary....

Like he said money isn't important . If money isn't important, how come he is playing multiple lines of the same numbers, knowing fully well that if it hit, he will be in the money that he claims is not important?. He should have just been thankful instead of making himself sound like a jerkhole. I like to see where it says that he gave all that money away to the church or any other verifiably credible org. that helps his community. Having money is very important otherwise that fool will not be... [ More ]

Same here. First time to see her. It feels like I fell asleep and when I woke up everybody but me somehow knew who Honey Boo Boo is. My resolution to cut down on watching tv shows must have worked. I'm glad.

Ok

I watch that for 1 minute 45 seconds. First time ever I saw Honey Boo Boo.

Dang what a mess. I fear what that kid will be like when she's grown up.

Well said.

With money you can forego do-it-yourself Walgreens dentistry. You can seek expert medical advice, you can move from polluted areas to clean ones. money buys health, Pharma wouldn't be big business otherwise.

Like he said money isn't important , maybe he thought spending money on more lines than spending more money per line gave him a better chance to win.

You are on point about this i totally agree. I would never say what he said. i would've just said what a blessing this is. And get the hell out of there before anybody tries to ask me more questions.

I like what you said, cause I'm fall in the without money paragraph you stated! But wishing I was in the with money paragraph! Would be so nice that I, this 61 year old man could spend the rest of my life wealthy! Wishing you all Good Luck

Gleno — Fri, 12 Jun 2015 12:34:44 GMT

That is an interesting question as to why he bought 3 tickets with the same numbers but it paid him very well.

Great to see that he is helping kids with disabilities!

Maybe because he has a charitable heart, good karma was working for him.

I am sure that I am not the only one who gets annoyed whenever a jackpot or second tier winner wax on philosophically about money, saying things like, money is not everything or Money is not important...try telling that to a homeless person or someone living paycheck to paycheck despite budgeting and working multiple jobs.

Too bad he didn't do Megaplier; would have jumped him up to $12 million. Still $3 million isn't chump change either.

Comment #26

RJOh — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 18:45:58 GMT

While I think he might have had a system, like Todd I doubt it was a Steve Player system or any other commercial system. Systems that can be brought are for players who aren't capable or willing to think for themselves. Only he knows for sure how he picked his numbers and from his conversation it's going to stay that way.

Comment #25

LckyLary — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 16:40:35 GMT

It sounds like he plays for big jackpots, and probably a little ticked he didn't get the whole thing, as far as a system, I don't see that because a few of the numbers would be too high for a Bonus Ball, so he probably rotated the family numbers if you will, using only the numbers 15 or less for Bonus Balls, no special method just kept putting one of the numbers as the Bonus. The nuts and bolts of wheeling systems is that you have more numbers to use than what fit in the slots so there are rotat... [ More ]

I've done 5 same lines with different mega balls before when the jackpot got around 300. He probably did this every draw.

Comment #19

RJOh — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 11:22:13 GMT

It's just natural for some folks to think when anyone comes that close to winning a jackpot with three tickets in the same drawing they had a system or strategy for playing. If he had one he wasn't interested in talking about it with all that talk about money not being important.

He may have been a casual player but he was a serious player having matched five on three tickets and four on two other ones. He probably brought more than five tickets.

People forget some players have strategies... [ More ]

Congratulations to the winner.

I think people who can't collect anonymously just say something to get through the press conference. How often they play, how and why they chose the numbers that happened to win is really no one's business. The only reason to buy MM tickets is to win money. You can guess the number without ever buying a ticket if it's just an intellectual workout you like.

My health is much more important to me than this check.

How true. You can always make more money easier than getting your health back after you have lost it from a lifetime of hamburgers, fries, pies, nicotine, and vodka. Of course he would have took the jackpot over 3 million who wouldn't? You missed his meaning. He was seeing the glass half full not half empty!

Just from the words and that one picture he carries the aura of someone with more than enough money already. You can tell a per... [ More ]

Todd — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 01:27:31 GMT

There's no way in the world that a casual player would ever use a Steve Player system, and if you know the systems you could not help but agree.

Your message stated clearly that the guy DID use the Steve Player system, and you then went on to criticize anyone who has bashed Steve Player systems in the past based on this.

That is pretty outrageous.

Clearly the guy did NOT use a Steve Player system, and, There is nothing wrong with people criticizing a system, especially one that is ex... [ More ]

Lildarryl — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 00:46:51 GMT

Steve Players system for games as such mostly have multiple winning tickets. Some with jackpot wins. Some with 5 number wins and some with 4+1 wins.

But who knows what system he uses. Its right up the alley of A Steve Player output.

And what is a casual Player???

. There are tons of casual players who use Systems.

Im not advertising the exact name of the system. But we all know Steve Player has some credible systems.

Todd — Thu, 11 Jun 2015 00:27:38 GMT

And you know that how?

There's no way a casual player is going to use a Steve Player system. That's ludicrous, and I can't imagine why you would be saying that.

Virginia man claims three $1 million prizes

Lottery Post — Wed, 10 Jun 2015 19:51:46 GMT

A Chesterfield, Virginia, man has cashed in three Mega Millions lottery tickets worth $1 million each.

Don Wilson, Virginia newest millionaire, said money does not turn him on.

It's just money. There is stuff in life that is so much more important than money. Money takes away some concerns and things, but money is not going to add anything of value to your life. Just stuff, Wilson said.
