I don’t play the lottery or any of the scratch-off ticket. A few years back I laughed when a coworker won $100 bucks on a scratch off ticket. He was happy showing everyone and me he won. After talking to me he was a little upset... For those who know me well enough you can understand why.

I asked him how much is he wasting on the scratch off a week and how long did it take him to win that $100. He said $10-12 a week and about 6month (I know it's more $$$$) , but he wins $2 bucks from time to time & a free ticket as well. So, I told him after after 6months of playing @ 10 bucks a week, $40 a month for a total of $240 bucks for 6 month. $240.00-100.00 he is still out $140.00- bucks. lol! I told him he will have a can of soda each day and some chips if he stopped playing. Wouldnt it be great if you dont have to ask your coworkers for a buck for the soda machine cause you never have. He walked away...lol

Now with that said, I did put in $4.00 bucks in at work today for the pool they have going on. I think 24+ people are playing and I will be a fool if they won and I didnt because I didnt want to put in $4.00 bucks. Still waiting to say, I’m RICH BITACH!!! lol

Smells a little fishy to me that during the holidays you always see some stupid high numbers. I gave up on the scratch offs for the simple fact they are not worth it. Stupid. 500mil....... Now, I would risk $10 at the most and even then I still feel silly doing it lol

If you are destined to win, you only need to buy 1 ticket.

We did a pool at work and got the tickets today 20 players 5 bucks each. So for 5 bucks I can become a millionaire? Nope, doesn't seem likely but if I didn't put my 5 bucks in then I would be the only worker in the office still there after the drawing. Then I would really feel like the 5 bucks wasn't that much to spend on a long-shot prayer, looking at the other desks and thinking their all on the beach somewhere and if I only threw in my 5 bucks...... So for 5 bucks I'm in.
The first month they came out with fantasy five which is maybe a thousand years ago I won 4 out of 5 on one ticket and got a whopping $460 bucks as a pay out, but the truth is I am still playing on their money because I have not spent more then that back since.
If I don't win it I hope it's somebody I know so I can work on their new Fishing boat, Good Luck.

I'll put $10 on Powerball maybe 2 or 3 times a year, when the jackpot gets really high. I know it is a waste but what the hell, someone has to win. If I do, I will buy 7 Mile Bridge and make it a private pier for all of you guys :mrgreen:

I got 5 #'s in a 64 million dollar IL lottery once. After splitting it with 374 other people who also got 5 #'s I got a grand. I never bought lottery tickets so I'm way ahead, but that's as close as I'll ever get to winning. I still buy 10 dollars worth for the really big ones.

Just think here....What about a pool for boatless crew? Not for this Wed, but if it rolls over we can do a pool $4 bucks i& pay it through a pay pal account. Someone we trust can handle this and scan the power ball ticket and send it through a PDF. file..... eatpop

And the day goes on....

Quote:
Tickets sold at a rate of 130,000 a minute nationwide — about six times the volume from a week ago. That pushed the jackpot even higher, said Chuck Strutt, executive director of the Multi-State Lottery Association. The jackpot rolled over 16 consecutive times without a winner.

Iowa Lottery spokeswoman Mary Neumauer said the jackpot was estimated at $587.5 million by early Thursday, adjusted slightly upward from the $579.9 million estimate at the time of the drawing. The cash payout was $384.7 million. :money: :money: :money:
In a Mega Millions drawing in March, three ticket buyers shared a $656 million jackpot. This remains the largest lottery payout of all time.
