Gutern Morgen!!

I saw that some were internet purchases. Had no idea they cost that much.

No odds=no play as far as I'm concerned.

The last time I connected in DXB they only had the super car raffle for which one ticket was 400$ I believe.

This 1 000 000 $ raffle is just as sucky, one ticket costs 280$ !

That's a crappy deal when you can play 280 MM drawings for the same cost.

They don't give odds either! But you can order online, so that's something I guess.

Set-out to educate Indian convenience store owners today. Asked for a $20 igift. So now they now how to do that. Had to educate non-Indian store owners here in town so as not to single any specific group out. Maybe the Kentucky lottery needs to teach the clerks/owners on how to do this.

I googled that raffle. It was very interesting their website and seeing folks from all over winning $1 million as well as luxury cars. Some Americans were in the mix too. The photographs are taken from far away, hard to discern who's who.

very happy he survived that horrible plane crash, that's One very Blessed Man!

I think I'll start buying a 4 Digit Ticket @ The Dubai International Airport! Who am I kidding I couldn't win if it was only a 1 digit number between 1 2!

I do know, if we don't get a win of some kind really soon so we can move to a bigger place with a/c, a non leaking roof, then when the Judge gives my kid Custody of my Granddaughter, Because of her deplorable living conditions an treatment with the ex we'll be... [ More ]

Bleudog read the article wrong. Mea culpa it was from the airport in Dubai!! I'm curious though, can raffle tickets be purchased throughout Dubai or just the duty free zone in the airport

The raffle ticket was from India, not Dubai.

I remember seeing that crash on CNN Fox news. A first responder a fireman lost his life fighting the fire. I think I saw part of a wing fly up in the air and come back down. The fire appeared to be on one side of the plane and that let everybody get to safety on the other side.

So happy for him and I learned something today. Didn't know India even had anything close to a lottery. Anyone know of the tax status for him working in Dubai? I knew years ago I could work in King Riyahd (spelling?) hospital in Saudi Arabia. They would fly you there for free, put you up in free housing, tax free pay and pay for one trip home back/year; and of course airfare back home end of contract-. After retiring from the Army I did not want a regimented life anymore
