Playing for Someone Else
I never thought of myself as cheap or greedy, but I don't want to buy lottery tickets for anyone because of the potential problems that might arise. I suppose if I had children or was very close with a friend or family member, I might do it. However, I am a little funny, maybe even superstitious, about gambling. Many years ago when I gambled at casinos, I would put a chip or 2 on a number at a roulette table for the dealer, but usually I just tipped him instead when I won something. I did

After a $100 Million jackpot win, how would you deal with family?
if you form a trust when you collect the winnings and provide for everyone you are going to provide for within that then you don't have to worry about it. In the trust you put a set amount for each person and if they choose to blow it then they don't get anymore. You tell them that upfront. It not so much that it would matter to the IRS but if you want to have that relationship good... nickle and diming gifts to people will turn them into someone who will nickle and dime your money away ver

After a $100 Million jackpot win, how would you deal with family?
Thing is you can look at this gift tax thing as a way to help you control your giving. Sure you could buy gas for people and extra groceries and such. But even with 100 Million dollars a person can go overboard and spend too much it has happed IE Jack Whittikar, Most of his winnings went to helping others and often they were ungrateful they didn't get more of it. Or look at David Edwards with his standard 1000 tips to waitresses. If you do stuff like that the money can go quickly even 100 Mi

Why do people try to justify their desire to win the Lottery?
You wouldn't see those interviews on TV if that's not what they wanted you to see. For some reason, it's seemingly expected of lottery winners to suddenly become philanthropic. I see the game as a challenge. IF I ever win,,, I WON. Nobody gave me the numbers or the $$$ to play. You wouldn't be expected to give away your weekly paycheck... sureyou can be asked, but not expected to... Never seen a news crew at the bank asking the workers what they are planning with that whole paycheck. I

Why do people try to justify their desire to win the Lottery?
lol The Bible also says not to gamble. The Lottery is a form of gambling last time I checked. If I give to charities or volunteer my time to charities that is a seperate matter than what I am talking about. Personally I don't need to win The Lottery to do such things. My desire to win the lottery is pruely a selfish one and I admit that. I would continue the things I do now in regards to charities and good causes. What that involvement is or if it even exists is my secret and will remain

The Secret
Actually it's one of those things where people in the field of metaphysics split on. Some think it's perfectly okay to use mind powers or the comos to win and have a good life. Others live by the mindset that you can only ask for or want certian things. I feel those latter people want to keep people in the bondage of toil and sarrow. Yes it's all about people's own agendas. Most churches are dead set against gamblin' however if one of their members hits it big they are there saying

As technology and software progress....
It's no mystery how to win a lottery every time, you simply play every possible combination. The trick is reducing those combinations down to an affordable list and still have the winning combination on it. I've been working on rules to reduce that list without eliminating the winner and it's still not affordable. Here are some of those rules, they're not 100% but they're are 95%+ most of the time. 1. Eliminate combinations that have already hit 2. Eliminate combinations that have mat

As technology and software progress....
Think about it. Anyone who writes lottery software is going to try it before selling it. If there was any chance of winning millions without spending millions, the software would be held back from the market. If you invented a lottery software and won one or more jackpots with it, would you need to go through the whole process of running a business to sell copies to people you don't know? A. Person writes lottery software to make money selling product, has little or no interest in playing

How to Beat Powerball: And drastically reduce the odds (theory)...
I mean if you can narrow it down to 1 sum total your odds for winning powerball (the 5/5 match) will be 1 in 22,589.35 with 1 ticket...But because we have 5 sum totals we have to multiply 22,589.35 x 5 = and this will give you the odds of 1 in 112,947...But it gets better..I can also notice that the E/O types, they are 31 E/O types which are: An odd sum has either 5 odd numbers, 1 odd number and 4 even numbers, or 3 odd numbers and 2 even numbers. In a 5/55 matrix there are 33,312 combinati
