N.C. Lottery to join PowerballReply
The replacement game for LS will be called Win for Life. I'm hearing it will have a $520,000 cash option, which would be much lower than the $750,000 prize in the WA scratch game Lucky for Life.

Penn. woman wins lottery prize of $1,000 a week for lifeReply
Wow finally another lucky for life winner! I bet cash only will love this. I gave up on that game long ago as I hate scratch offs, and the paybacks, if there ever was any, were bad. I might have to grab a few thought sometime. But with only two winners out there I don't know if it is worth it.

USA Mega adds lottery game start datesReply
chuck:NY and TX still require the cash/annuity choice to be made when you PLAY. Annuity-only online games still exist: MA Megabucks, OR Win for Life, and PA Lucky for Life.

Pennsylvania Lottery Chosen to Host 2008 International ConferenceReply
You must have a different scoring system. Bad games don't get negative points in my book, one. Two, I don't think Lucky For Life is a bad game. The top prize may be cheap, but who cares, I'm never gonna win it (or am I?).The only thing that gets negative points for me is computerized drawings and acts of bigotry.

$45 million N.Y. Lotto winner living life to the fullestReply
To me it sounds like he confused an annuity with lucky for life. Doesn't sound like he's socking enough away for his post-check retirement . Ironically if he had chosen cash then stuck the cash in a perpetual annuity he could stand a better chance of living this kind of lifestyle.

Powerball Lottery States Vote to Change GameReply
O.K. Now this is a realistic proposal. Somewhere between a rip-off (PA Lucky For Life) and a complete bank-breaker (doesn't exist). 5 Powerball: Jackpot (Of Course)5 (No Powerball) : $200,0004 Powerball: $10,0004 (No Powerball): $2003 Powerball: $2003 (No Powerball): $102 Powerball: $101 Powerball: $40 Powerball: $3May I also suggest the removal of the Match 5 Bonus Pool which limits jackpot growth to $25,000,000 per draw. Especially now, considering that with PowerPlay multiplier

N.H. Lottery Proposes $25 Scratch TicketsReply
here is the problem with certain people when they price stuff. they assume that if you double the price, you double the income. it doesn't work like that. you will lose customers on higher priced goods. increasing the price of stuff doesn't always increase the income (PA's Lucky for Life Lotto).

Penn. Lottery's Midday Mistake Leads to Questions About DrawingsReply
Well, granted, they are only GUARANTEED to a certain amount. Like PA Lucky for Life is guaranteed for a million, which means, dead or alive, they CAN stop paying you after the million dollar mark

Sure they wont be filthy rich where they can use hundred dollar bills to light their cigars, but they can get far with $2.2 million (after taxes). I say, good luck to them.
