Why do you sniveling libs always think you can push women around?

Does that make you feel manly, Stanky?

Just cuz you get your ass handed to you by me, you think you can go push women around?

I see you ran away when you saw they weren't takin' your crap either.

It appears that you can't push anybody around or affect anybody in anyway and I know that drives a lib like you insane.

And I feel just terrible about that.

Lejardin gave you the best advice, little Stanky. Grow up.... [ More ]

I do submit an entry ever once in a while. They do give the prizes but you have to read the rules. The award date is sometimes a couple of years in the future. The cash per week is usually far in the distance. The Million dollar or five Million dollar prizes are so back loaded that you would have to live 40 or 50 years to collect it all. It is usually something stupid like $5000 a year for 29 years then a lump sum for the rest. Read to rules.

I do the pch emails daily, why not? On the Casino nights I think that's the one after the slots with the wheel I won a $5 amazon gift code, got the email right away from pch with the code. I've ordered a couple of things too, pillows (really nice) and a yellow lilac ( which they sent too early and when I notified them of their mistake they canceled the order and told me to keep the plant).

Speaking of redundant, but hey you want to discuss imaginary winnings so why not why not redundantly post imaginary quotes you heard in a movie. Was it a movie that convinced you to try out being an Internet bully

Only when they start stalking me, CD.

Because I disagree with him trying to dictate the content of other members' threads.

He can't stand anybody disagreeing with him.

But I think in his heart he knows I'm just trying to help him and that I'll always be here for him if he needs me. I think we all are.

He's just a little too high strung, that's all.

You could always read the rules. If they choose winners from those who play them there has to be a winner every so often. If they select an (unknown) winner fro all of the possible chances and the person who recieves that chance doesn't enter then they won't win and PCH won't have to pay the prize. I'd assume that they do pick a winner and pay the prize, because it's chump change relative to the number of orders they get for each prize they pay.

Stop complaining and whining to me, stupid.

Tell management about all your complaints about threads you don't like. I'm not the complaint department, you sniveling little peckerhead.

There's nothing I can do for you besides letting you wear my jockstrap over your face to absorb some manliness from the musk of my ultra-masculine persona.

Breathe deeply, son!

If you become a man maybe you'll stop your infernal sniveling and whining and whimpering.

The $1 million prize from PCH is an annuity that is paid out over 30 years and is heavily back end weighted. I believe the payout (before tax) is 25k per year for the first 29 years and a final balloon payment of 275k in year 30.

The cash value before tax is less than 400k.

Mattapan — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 14:33:32 GMT

Yeah I saw that too. I have no idea how her winnings fell all the way to $260,000.00 dollars. I believe normally you get about $650,000.00 after taxes are withheld when you win $1,000,000.00 so where they got $260,000.00 from I have no idea.

Jill34786 — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 13:59:35 GMT

Hi Artist- I went through about 20 pages of promotions prior to having my entry accepted . You have to make sure you uncheck many of the agreements that allow them to offer future correspondence (They are sneaky about this).

The odds for the 1 million a year for life as well as the other major prizes is 1.3-1.5 billion to 1 but it's free, you just have to resist all the special offers they throw at you.

onlymoney — Fri, 24 Jan 2014 07:32:26 GMT

I suppose it's better that than personal attacks.

I don't think educating people on the reality of the rediculous odds is considered a personal attack. They're lack of understanding or denial can only be rectified by how far their egos allow the sharade to go on before waking up.Then the egos retreat back to their binding dungeons allowing common sense and practicality to rule.

Would you rather I coddle them

From many years back

I remember them from when I was young

I cant believe they are still around

You will be surprised what you find

And all the way up to unopened envelopes blowing in the wind in New York

Maybe even something about envelopes in a dumpster along the way if I remember correct

I do enter occasionally but I too watched Lottery Changed My Life when Natalie Bostelman won a million but what she ended up with was approximately $260,000.00. What a crock. While I would be happy to win that it is a far cry from a million dollars they advertised. I also notice they have all these different entry number and dates so who know what you are even entering.

I couldn't deal with all the endless emails or mail i experienced a few years ago when i did so i just toss or delete anything i get from them. Once i was taken on a long journey of endless advertisements that i had to accept or decline in order to enter one of their drawings....that was nothing though compared to the endless junk mail that soon filled my email and mail box....i vowed never again

Mattapan — Wed, 22 Jan 2014 23:14:09 GMT

Yes, I'm playing. I figure what the hell, why not. All the emails can get annoything though, it's almost everyday they send one asking for verification. I always answer, so who knows. I was watching The lottery changed my life and on one episode they had a P.C.H. winner who stated she answered every email they sent because she saw a past winner say they did the same thing and they won. So, hopefully I can take it down. If so I'll let the site know.

LottoMetro — Wed, 22 Jan 2014 23:13:02 GMT

I did the same thing. Not sure if the junk mail I get every day is worth it, but can't hurt to try. PCH is sneaky with the fine print though. They will tell you a winner is guaranteed to have your initials, but it will be a $100 winner....not the big prize winner. LOL

I think the odds are somewhere in the billions, so it wouldn't surprise me if nobody here knows a past winner

If enough members are playing it, you can start another thread asking how they are planning on spending the winnings. If you win will you borrow out money to me

Is anybody playing these Publishers Clearing house sweepstakes??

Shelby Mustang — Wed, 22 Jan 2014 21:53:51 GMT

I responded to one for the 1 million dollars a year forever prize and now I am getting ones for 5,000 a week for life and a new one a 7,000 a week for life in Nov. Does anybody know if anyone has won these before or do they just keep advertising them until somebody wins. I'd like to win the million for life prize but Im think the odds are worse than PB and/or MM. Is anyone else trying to play these also
