Texas Legislature proposes bill to block online lottery courier servicesReply
I would assume that if the legislation were to pass and get signed into law that every lottery company, including TheLotter, would be prohibited from doing business in the state. Hopefully that does not happen, for Texans sake.

Florida Fantasy-5 PlayersReply
If I'm going to criticize the additional midday drawing, then I should offer what I think would be an improvement to the game. Before I do that, I have one more criticism that I'd like to share. Ticket sales of FF5 are not what they once were (prior to adding the midday draw) so adding the midday was The Florida Lottery's response to try to attract more player interest in the game. I agree that ticket sales are down, I can remember jackpots in 2020 and 2021 being in the $230,000 to $235,000

Texas Lottery releases country's first-ever $100 scratch-offReply
Texas was considering legal casinos at one point. There are illegal gamerooms everywhere, Its no secret. You will see Texans at casinos in all neighboring states. Oklahoma, New Mexico and Lousiana. Instead of passing legislation for legal casinos they opt to give us 100 dollar scratch tickets. Lol

Online credit card purchases to be banned for Australian gamblers, except for the lotteryNews Story
Lotteries present a low risk to gambling harm. By Kate Northrop Australians may soon not have the ability to use credit cards for online betting, except for lottery purchases. A new legislation is being proposed by the Australian federal government that would prevent gamblers from placing online bets using a credit card unless they are for the lottery. The new law, expected to be introduced by the government within months, calls back to a parliamentary inquiry from 2021 that rec

PATR IOTS, AND ALL INTERESTED IN OUR AMERICAN HISTORYReply
Nota Bene: On this day in 1931, President Herbert Hoover signed into law legislation making The Star-Spangled Banner the nation s official national anthem. Francis Scott Key (1779-1843) composed the poem that became The Star-Spangled Banner on Sept. 14, 1814, after witnessing the massive overnight British bombardment of Fort McHenry in Baltimore harbor, a key assault during the War of 1812. Key, a lawyer, watched the siege while being detained aboard ship by British sailors. He pe

Correct you are. The rich are legally sheltering their money. The Federal government wrote the tax code and wealthy people's tax attorneys are simply telling them how to legally exploit the tax code to their advantage. Ever heard of The Carried Interest Loophole ? It's a terrific method for wealthy people employed in the Private Equity industry to cut their tax burden in half, and best of all it's perfectly legal. But carry as the PE Boy's all call it isn't available to the average tax payin

VIDEO: $2 billion Powerball winner buys another multi-million dollar California propertyReply
California too needs to revamp its laws, as many states have already done, and allow winners to claim anonymously/trust. Bet there are lots of laws in your state law codes that are not in other states and vise versa. Just saying. Have you tried contacting the California Legislation?

Virginia Lottery retailers refuse to sell tickets to draw attention to skill games amendmentReply
Let's be crystal clear about what's happening here. The government is protecting a revenue source (the lottery). The whole thing about schools and churches is a way to achieve that goal. Any government lottery official reading this would not be happy with me, but although I am a big supporter of the lottery, I am not a shill for the lottery. First they tried banning skill games. That did not work, so they are now trying to limit where they can be played to the point of banning them for a

800 million dollarsReply
One more thing and then I'm done.... An investor with 800 million dollars could invest with a Private Equity Firm. Generally PE Firms accept only Institutional Investers as Limited Partners, but they will accept money from an individual invester that is High Networth Individual. You'd have to prove to them you really do have more than 30 million in the bank (you'd have to show them bank statements so they could vet you) but if they did accept your money you would benefit from something calle
