I don't know if 20 is magical or not, but I believe with 20 tickets , I stand a good chance of hitting one of the top tier prizes. For the football pools it improves my chances bunches. I'm a very positive person. I never keep negative thoughts in my mind.

CARBOB:

I find your post to be very interesting and thank you for posting it.

If I might I would like to ask another question!!

Since, you plan on spending $400.00 is there something magic about buying 20 tickets or is that a personal thing with you? Better put maybe, has your luck or success over the years revolved around the number 20?

I am envious of your consistant success, I guess I am hoping some of your luck will rub off.
