I Am A Lottery Winner In My Imagination Whenever I Buy One TicketReply
Hi Thrifty, Thanks for a very informative post and for the link to the article about the New York lottery. I know that the big games have hurt the sales of the in State games, but what I l don't understand is why. [I finally got a chance to respond and now there's an electrical storm and I can't finish writing. This is so funny because when I bought my Powerball ticket last week there was lightening when I left the store. I wasn't exacly thrilled at that moment when I thought about what the s

Mass. Lottery game very profitable for those who know how and when to playReply
If its a guaranteed return if you invest $500,000 would Bank of America allow people to borrow money and buy CashWinfall tix when the jackpot is full? I suspect the other high rollers around the country will read this article and fly in to buy tickets the next time the jackpot is full. Then a lot of media attention will follow and questions raised then shutdown of the game. Those odds are amazing if you got that kind of bread to risk. I have known about this little quirk for some time now

Record EuroMillions winners in hiding after begging avalancheReply
It's different when these neighbors are from different countries, simply spamming these people with requests. I think it'd be a lot different if it was just a few neighbors dropping by for help, rather than so much harassment they had to relocate to an unknown location. Just as this article says... It would be hard not to see this coming. It really was a huge mistake in claiming so early as it didn't give them time to really think How can putting our names out there be a bad idea? . They

Lottery winner busted on pot chargeReply
GYM RICE, I'm glad you're not unconscious anymore. That is, if you're also glad. Anyhow, apparently many of these sociopaths aren't biological but rather learned. This isn't to say that the drug using, private 'property damager' written about in this article is a sociopath ... no tests were performed. Could be bipolar or no illness/bent. However, it would be interesting to discover if this man would have behaved this way without drug hampered brain and body.

Atheist converts after mock prayer to win $1M lottery is answeredReply
I think rdgrnr and Zeno would get along just fine. An observer might have difficulty determining who from what! On the other hand, rdgrnr might be uncomfortable having a meaningful conversation with a male, so maybe we should introduce him to Bina. Actually, if he reads the article he will probably fall in love with Aiko! Her current bo probably has no need to worry about that possibility though... http://tinyurl.com/3lubyln P.S. Don't worry about the tinyurl - it's benign. You'll see

$300K win brings Atlanta foster mom sunshineReply
If winners were based on deserving the winnings then many more folks should be winning. She will receive the well wishes yet I often think when vague stories like this come out...Whos to say they were good foster parents? Whos' to say their daycare is safe....So many things I question as sometimes the bookcover doesnt reveal the details...which can make all the difference in the accolades being distributed. I have all the faith that goodness exist in this world yet I also am realistic that so

Changes coming to Powerball multi-state lottery game in JanuaryReply
Ha! No problem being outed (again). The research method requires a full and clear presentation of the changes and a discussion of other options in the market and many more details about how the game will play - how the jackpots will build, the average jackpots offered and won, etc. It also includes purchase modeling to try to judge how players will respond with their dollars, no matter what they say. I can only ask that players give it a chance. See how the game plays. In the end, I think they w

20 N.Y. Costco workers share $202M Powerball lottery jackpotReply
Congratulations NY Costco workers! The article couldn't mention the true amount of your exciting jackpot win -- after your now and later federal taxes are paid -- however, you'll 20 each end up with approximately $2.82M. Certainly, that's not enough for a prudent attached, married, or head of household person to retire on, but it's a VERY tidy win, and can create comfort while you continue to work your current job, and receive those benefits in dental, perscription, etc. Next each of the 20

Blackjack player legitimately beats casinos for millionsReply
The article reads: In all, Johnson racked up about $15.1 million, pre-taxed, in blackjack winnings during a six-month span, although he acknowledged incurring some undisclosed losses along the way. I wonder how much it cost Don Johnson to rack up those $15.1 million in winnings? Maybe half? Maybe X amount? I wonder if someone sponsored Don Johnson's bankroll, and now Johnson has to pay back the person PLUS share X amount of his winnings?
