$93.4 million Powerball lottery winner is New Mexico's thirdReply
Good suggestions.I'm run a small lottery pool with 3 coworkers and we've talked about the possibility of winning and what we will do if it happens. Before claiming, we plan to get a financial advisor so we can plan for the future and an attorney to help us with the legal stuff in addition to claiming the winnings on our behalf. We plan on using a trust or corporation to claim it, so our names will be kept out of the newspapers. I know this isn't 100% privacy, but it helps.After we get our mon

This will be my LAST week posting
Well Vacation is about over..I have really enjoyed the LP for past year. It does take up a lot of time to read and try to catch up. I am sure it will be impossible once school starts back. So this will be my last week of regular posting. Between School, housework, yardwork, pool, and parttime job, I will not be able to post as much.After the pool is closed and the yard is finished for the season, I will get some extra time.In meantime, I hope everyone makes a bundle.. The tools are here to ad

MegaMillions pool strategies.Reply
JAG,I didn't really have any particular point in mind. I just started thinking about the flipside of RJOh's findings, and that prompted me to ask the question.We can analyze draw history in an infinite number of ways, but the statistics we come up with aren't always meaningful or useful. At any given point the numbers have to fall in some fashion, but I generally don't put much stock in such statistics unless there's a clear mathematical reason for them. Otherwise, they simply represent a snapsh

This is the file with the real numbers. After the drawing I will check to see if the strategy helped.

Maddogs Mega Million Challenge 7/5Reply
RJOH ----- this is absolutely incredible!I just finished my initial worksheet and counted 38 numbers for my initial pool, and again I have 16 numbers for final selection. Maybe the time has come for us????? to take the jackpot. I will take cash, and will struggle (for all of 1 second) to get along on a mere 18M.Seriously, I regard you as the resident statistician of LotteryPost, and, as such, I have considerable confidence in the posts and observations you share with fellow members of LP.

Lottery Pools??Reply
I've heard there can be problems in that situation as well. People can change when there is alot of money involved.My opinion is for a lottery pool, all the rules should be agreed upon in advance and written down. When things are written down if someone does want to make trouble, what was written down can be referred back to. When people are discussing something, there can be a misunderstanding when an agreement is reached so putting it in writing is the way to go to make it clear to all invo

Are Secrets Really Worth Keeping?Reply
RJOH,I guess it would depend upon what one defines as an affordable cost . To me, I've seen enough people trying to wheel 100 combos at 100 bucks a draw. And really, that 100 combos doesn't change the odds on a major jackpot game any. It's a drop in the bucket when the odds of hitting the jackpot are over 100 million to one. To me, personally, games with odds that high are never worth more than a 5 buck ticket. There are just too many combinations possible. Winning a major jackpot game like t

Circle of Opportunity
I have read much about what various persons would do if they won a major Jackpot. There is a wide variey of purchases, travels, charities, relatives, etc., etc., etc. This all strikes me as typical cross-representation of all that is American, and that is good, very good!As you all probably know, I have arrived at the time in life that I do not have a lot of' 'IS' to look forward to, but I have a helluva lot of 'was' look back at! I suppose it is appropriate now to recall that after I posted
