here is some good tips about picking numbers and wheeling i am in the same boat as you i can and do pick at least three correct balls almost every time i play lotto mega or power ball. i never wheeled my numbers in the typical sence but i did copy my numbers onto different tickets. MikeK has some free wheels you could back test or try.color=#800080WheelWorld.net - Lotto Books, Lottery Software, Forecast Prediction Services, Your Lucky Numbers, Lotto Edge Magazine, PICK 3... color=#0000ffGail How...

I always want to wheel the numbers but the problem is I have like 24 numbers of those 24 sometimes less, the 6 winning numbers are in those numbers. I have tried one wheel one time, i didnt win i guess i should try more than once right? I am a songwriter I think I have this ability to get the numbers because I have spent years perfecting my craft of knowing what words go together perfectly, and it is somehow making its way into the way i pick numbers. i am just narrowing it down, a wheel maybe b...

If your that good at picking numbers why are you fooling around with lotto and not mega or lotto plus seems to me I would go for the bigger pay outs. If your picking numbers that hit on a regular basis maybe you should wheel them and see what happens.

I have good years and bad years some years i get good hits but shove it back in the games. many lottery players spend twice as much trying to hit again as they won. Smart lottery players back off when they win and only play when the urge hits them. Big lottery winners somtimes go to a casinos and toss it all away.in order to gamble for a living you have to have a lot of money to start with. your not going to win big playing with quarters. Winning the big money lottery is a once in a lifetime dea... [ More ]

Nope cant say that I make more than I spend, but like RJOH says it only takes one time to reverse that statement

Hello joy..... I win a lot of times but not enough to make a living off of it...but in the future i do intend to do just that. I play the 5 numbers game including the megagame as it has 5 numbers also. 5 numbers will still get you 175,000 dollars without the megaball. with the megaball it is in the millions. There is a way of increasing the chances of winning...and all you need is past winning numbers and a record of it in the form of a graph or chart so that you can VISUALLY SEE the way numbers...

I was spending about $35 a week playing 2by2 and only getting about $3 sometimes but mostly free tickets and that was maybe only 2 or 3 free tickets which is $2 and $3 so I don't think I will be playing the lottery 4 a living

Does anybody win more than they spend ?

Joy2 — Tue, 23 Mar 2004 08:38:32 GMT

Does anybody really win more money than they are spending to play the lottery on a regular basis? Are there any of you who actually play the lottery for a living (as your main source of income)? Whether you play Pick 3,4,5,6... Do you play at a profit? How often do you win? And how many combos do you play each day
