30 Kentucky middle school employees win $1M Powerball prize, hid lottery ticket in math textbookReply
Yes, these lottery pools at work should be banned by employers. First off if they win the big one that is the end of your work force. Even if they stay on they will be good for nothing there. Of course the chances of them winning because they pooled tickets is not really improved. Then all the work hours that are wasted by the organizer of the pool collecting the money each week and all the discussion that takes place about it when it gets large although bloom is off the rose on that it seems wi

Florida LLC revealed to have claimed $1.6 billion Mega Millions lottery jackpotReply
True enough that wealthy people play the lottery too. I have a relative that drove a delivery truck to deli's and convenience stores. One particular deli was located in an affluent/upscale town located 20 miles north of New York City. He got to know the owner of the deli quite well. My relative saw quite a few signs in the deli announcing some pretty good winning tickets sold at that deli so he asked the owner about it. The owner said It's all those rich so and so's coming in here and buying boa

New York man scoops up two $1 million Mega Millions lottery prizesReply
I agree 110% about spending that extra dollar for the multiplier. I am assuming these tickets were not qps? If a store lottery random generator spit out the same 5 numbers twice, that is a story.

$1.3 billion Mega Millions lottery winner's family sues him for not sharing jackpotReply
Artist makes some really good points above. Brock Lee also made an interesting point he split the prize with a gf who isn't his baby mama . Db101 added further clarification the most plausible explanation is that they went halvsies (with gf) on purchasing some tickets for that drawing. Lotteries split prizes among members of lottery pools all the time, whether it's a pool of 2 or 20 .. That gf's existence is irrelevant to the story here My take is unless plaintiffs can prove John Doe did not hav

Texas LottoReply
I try. Right now laying off some until it gets higher. I'm making a strong effort to reduce my lottery spending this year. Focusing on reducing debt. I figure I won't be working a part time job past a few more years. I found an envelope full of Ohio Lotto tickets from 1985 in my garage a couple weeks ago. No idea how or why they got brought all the way down here except they got tossed in with other stuff. That year was my biggest lottery win. If I recall, about $890. 40 years of playin
