As I stated last month on the story about the lottery winner who sued his baby's mom for telling his parents about his windfall, i'm taking care of my elderly mother. That's an everyday job that keeps me running all day.

Actually, if I had more time to edit, I could put all that in one post, but it's very difficult when you're trying to do fifteen things at the same time.

Just as I figured...

Since no one can give a logical answer to my question, they'll just down vote my post and criticize me.

One person making 8 posts in a row is a monologue. Reminds me of of this old Far Side cartoon.

Don't worry. I am done with your buddy. I already know where your loyalties are.

I feel fine! I already knew that no one could give a logical answer to my question.

I wish Todd Kate were more like FB in that this bickering crap between members STOPS.

Heaven knows I've got suspended on FB about four times, though I didn't personally attack folks like some members do on LP

I'm American, so why not an AMERICAN scammer?

The answer is obvious.

I've traveled many places and have encountered all types of people, so I know what i'm talking about.

I don't try to change people's hearts because they are what they are.

Racist comment. Definitely a tinge of racism in that remark.

Well, i've been on this site over 10...not 20 years.

And yet they follow and obey you.

That's what's wrong with the world.

And no brag ...just fact.

Over 20 years on this site and I never stated anything about my personal life, but since you, being prejudiced, made accusations against me, I had to reveal a little about my personal life.

That would be a very unattractive guy. Handsome guys have no problem getting women. I'm just an average looking guy but I don't recall ever begging a woman.

The minds of guys who beg women are in bondage to them.

I've had women want me back after I left them and I didn't win nothing.

I guess she wanted me back because she realized she blew a good thing.

The funny thing is that I loved her but not enough to be a fool, so I had to leave her and walk away from love.

You've been watching too many soap operas!

Real life ain't like that.

In real life, women LOVE the money even if they don't love the man.

That's what the song, Lying Eyes , by the Eagles was all about.

pretty sure she is the one who should block him. he be calling her up, hey baby i won the lottery so take me back.

Once I saw the headline had to look up the Massachusetts guy who won after his breakup.

Unlike this guy, he won $30 million Mega Millions Oct 2012.

Best Valentine's gift for the Illinois guy. Hope he blocks all contact with her.

Yes, that 40% bite before taxes kick in would have me not purchasing this ticket anytime soon or ever actually. He should end up with closer to 400k though. He should have take the 20 yearly checks and netted 34,500.00 a year.

So HE wins a MILLION but only gets $600,000 before TAXES, I don't consider that A MILLION, I call that a JOKE.

$300,000 after taxes is a tidy sum but it is NOT A MILLION but the State Lottery and the News will say he won a million but he didn't so everyone will believe he won a million.

I think it sucks to win a big prize like that and then you have to choose either be tied to the tax man for 20 years or accept half as a consolation prize instead. The State of Illusions

Happy Valentines Day to all the couples, and if you haven't found love, I hope that someone special comes your way

Funny that at my age, I can still run up and down stairs, jump, and play basketball (which I thank God for).

Still attracting young women and getting compliments from chicks that are older.

No surprise that I sometimes forget that i'm an old man.

A million bucks is not enough for most (sane) people take back their ex.

The percentages can be verified by doing a google search, yet this post was down voted by those who hate the truth.

You can buy a watch but you can't buy time.

Hope you can get compliments from women IF you live to get my age.

LOL! Sometimes I forget i'm a senior citizen.

I might be older than those women or closer in age

I've had 2 older women...one of them married, compliment me on my looks in the past 2 months.

The single one has a nice body and is Armenian like Kim Kardashian.

She told me she is single because her ex cheated, which is a story that i've heard before, and 9 times out of 10 you can bet that she also did something wrong.

Anyway, i'm not messing with either one of those women.

If I never touch another woman, i've had my fun.

Guess I slept with too many men's wives and girlfriends since I was a teenager.

I guess you could say that women taught me well.

At this stage of my life, I don't even look at another man's woman, but in my youth, I often caught a woman's roving eye.

According to the experts, 75 to 90% of all separations and divorces are initiated by women, so if his girlfriend dumped him, that would be the most likely scenario.

Comment #3

Lotterologist — Wed, 14 Feb 2024 18:26:00 GMT

He said that he and his girlfriend broke up but it sounds more like she dumped him. If it was mutual, he wouldn't claim to be unlucky in love.

Comment #2

Lotterologist — Wed, 14 Feb 2024 18:00:14 GMT

He can expect a visit from his ex-girlfriend, filled with apologies and seeking a reunion.

If he is wise, he'll leave her alone and find somebody else.
