How much do you think about winning the lottery? I actually stress over what I'd do sometimes

    I don't play the lottery games, because I know I'm not going to win.

    I just checked my ticket for the Mega millions, drawn yesterday. I bought 10 tickets, six numbers on each ticket. Total sixty numbers I bought.


    I matched one number total. What are the odds? I think I will be hit by a lightning bolt tomorrow, although rain is not predicted.

    I would be one of the people who get a lawyer set it up to not allow my name to be published and never let anyone know I won ( except my wife and kids,, well the kids any way LOL ) it would be more fun if I was 21 yrs old but at 66 I will still take it

    Every night, without fail, Matilda would pray that she would win the lottery, with promises of all the good works she would do with the winnings. Every night she devoutly expressed her belief that the Lord would make that happen. Year after year- but no lottery jackpot.

    One night she expressed her dismay- despite her faith and holy intentions- no lottery. Why had God not heeded her prayers?

    A voice came from above. "Matilda- work with me here. Buy a ticket for once!"

    I AM MATILDA!!!! 😁

    This,

    Wyoming’s Famous 96,000-Acre Pitchfork Ranch Is For Sale For $67 million
    The storied and historic Pitchfork Ranch that’s older than the Cowboy State itself has been posted for sale by a real estate company in Thermopolis with a list price of $67 million. This will be only the third time in history that the 96,000-acre ranch has changed hands.

    Could offer Grizzly viewing trips as you can dang sure see more grizzlies around and on this ranch than you can going through Yellowstone.

    I already “won” the lottery once.

    I share this story every time it comes up.

    When I got out of the military the State of Florida had an educational grant which was funded by the Florida State Lottery, for combat veterans. It paid for my bachelors and masters engineering degrees.

    Those pieces of paper have given my family a good life.

    ...I also dream of winning a locust fork auction. Her great auctions bring top dollar from one of her many followers. I'm just not able to compete on those items.

    I'd become LF's best customer!!😎 Nothing newer than 1950, I like the look of those old, quality made shootin' irons.

    I do buy some lotto tickets once in a while, enjoy the suspense and the dreaming.

    My dad always said, "Son, you can't hit a home run if you don't swing the bat."

    I don't swing the bat very often at all.

    I would spend the first half on: wine, women and song, and the second half foolishly.

    I didn't win. Again.

    Nobody won the jackpot, and now, the prize is up near a Billion dollars!

    With $875M I would either bring back "Alien Nation" tv show or finance "Judge Dredd 2" or turn it in to a tv series.

    They have made the odds so high that everybody wins but the ticket buyers. You have to match 6 numbers with each number between 1-70. Your odds of winning with a $2 ticket is .000000003 and if you buy 500 tickets (a $1000 worth) your odds are .000003. You can't win if you don't play though. If I win, I will not spend one dime. I will put it all in the bank at 5% interest and spend that.

    In fact, compared to a 1-in-292 million odds, the likelihood of winning the average Powerball jackpot, getting struck by lightning would seem like a near certainty! According to the National Weather Service, a person has a 1-in-15,300 chance of getting struck by lightning in their lifetime, defined as an 80-year span.

    Wahoo I WON...$997,000,000! Gonna splurge: 1) fresh grounds for every cup of joe, 2) fake fur cover for my truck seat, 3) suicide knob for my riding mower, and 4) hire Mike Tyson to fend off all the "long lost" friends and relatives that magically appear.

    Sorry if I startled y'all...I'm just practicing for the sure thing tonight.

    I don't play the lottery and think about how my chances of winning are the same as someone who does. Other than that I never consider the lottery.

    I remember a very old lottery commercial that would be banned and sure bot PC

    Back when it got started it cutto a midle age whie guy had won whole house and yard full of people

    the commercial was pointing out all the long lost family showing up with house full of peope all varity of people the next knock on the door was a black man who said you remember me i'm cousin xx ( no I don't remember we his name )

    But the commercial was pointing out if you win every one clames to part of the family to get close to the money

    So you know how long ago that was ran

    It was in poor taste but suppose to have Been funny at the time


    I bought 10.00 worth of tickets tonight for each one

    If I win watch for my obit on Monday

    from a heart attack or a freak accident being ran over by the family car while sitting in my recliner lol

    Someone in New Jersey won the 1.13 Billion Dollar Mega Millions lottery on Tuesday night.


    There went my money! And I neglected to buy a ticket on Tuesday. Life is cruel sometimes.

    A few nights ago, I dreamt that I won the big jackpot.


    I've been trying to get back to sleep each night ever since and get back into that same dream!

    If I won I'd move to a state with no income tax before cashing that ticket in. At least I got a year to do so. Then disappear.
