Interest on Lotto winnings?Reply
RJOh, I agree with you, and banks often have partners, but you can have a lot more than $100,000 in a bank. You need to have qualifying beneficiaries however. But if you have children, siblings, etc., you can leave them each $100,000. This also helps to avoid probate because it then becomes a revocable trust, although each state handles wills trusts differently. I believe this information is available on the FDIC website. Investing $50 million is too complicated to explain in a post. If

A discussion of the math, probability and theories of the the LotteryReply
Tom - You are just the person I need to talk to. I'm retired - sorta - but have spent many hours on the Lotto Texas drawings. Started and learned some things with the Scratch-Offs, but have figured out some things related to the 'value' of certain numbers. I am a firm believer that the numbers chosen (I use chosen loosely) are, well, let's just say related to month-day-year. Something else of interest - look at the winners zip and address on scratch tickets and you will find a constant number in

N.Y. Lottery may lift curbs on Quick Draw keno gameNews Story
Pronto Lotto does not look like much. It sits outside the entrance to a busy subway stop in Elmhurst, Queens, supplying passers-by with cereal, chips and milk like any other bodega. But Pronto Lotto's real business takes place in the carpeted, hushed area where its most devoted customers watch video screens from a scattering of tall silver tables, hour after hour, day after day. The players mostly men, about a dozen at any given time come on their lunch breaks or after work to study the sc

What is a lottery system? What distinguishes a lottery system from guesses, dreams and quick picks?Reply
i could care less what people do as far as the methodology they use in pursuing the lottery. if it bothered me that much, i would be in here everyday, in pretty much every forum. what does get my attention, is when someone sells the impression they can do any better than any other methodology, and occasionally it deserves a spotlight and that's not true, not in any observable form, because no one is willing to actually demonstrate it does that at least deserves a question mark, be

I'm writing this because I know wracking your head with chosing what numbers to play can take out all the fun out of the game, so this is just a friendly reminder to remember why it was fun to pla
