did my research on edgar cayce. lot's of followers. but the guy was a bad guesser as well. remember the rule, one missed perdiction, your credibility get's booted. why would anyone who posseses even a medium amount of intelligence give credence to somone who guesses? why not go straight to the source and find out what the future really holds? now that makes sense. don't get in the car, drive around the block just to get to your neighbors house. but people are desperate for truth. on thier jo...

it is refreshing to see someone with the attitude that the glass is always half full , not half empty. all things are possible......... doesn't mean it will happen but at least you open yourself up to the good things that can come your way. negativity makes a person walk around staring at the ground, ever missing oppurtunities that past by his horizon. sounds a little schmaltzie , but you get what i mean. i am working ever so slowly on mr. happy to get his gaze up a little higher.......visi...

i have to admit, while i have heard of the name of edgar cayce, i do not know anything about him (i will have to hit my search button after i type his name in -lol). however, if edgar cayce was a psychic ( a predicter of the future)then maybe he was the best at guessing than anybody else, but he was no psychic. don't be fooled, i know that you are an intelligent person because i have read some of your post's in here. just because many books are written and movies are made about someone does...

I dont understand ...why would it be any harder to hit the lottery again once you Hit it once...I believe that if you win the lottery your odds are still 135,000,000 to 1 that it will happen again.... lottery draws do not have odds... only people make odds....you know what they say the first million is always the hardest....

*Most*, nearly all, psychics are frauds, but there have been exceptions. Cayce was an exception. Those who tried to debunk him wound up converts. They wrote books about him, made a movie about him, created hospitals and research institutes about him and even teach about him in universities. Cayce was for real.There can be no doubt that dowsing is a genuine psychic ability that many people have.Imagine taking the car, computer, TV or cell phone back to the days of the Pharohs. Any technology so a... [ More ]

If I ever win the lottery. Even just $1 Million. I will stop playing. I mean that. People say they just can't live off of a Million, but I think you can. Sure you might not be able to be as generous with only a million, but you should be able to live decently.But the point is, I play the lottery for two reasons. 1) To win money. 2) To accomplish the goal of winning the lottery.The only way I'd continue to play is if I only hit the PA Cash 5 for a couple hundred thousand.

you are right mr. happy, psychics are frauds. did miss cleo predict the bankruptcy of the psychic friends network ? she didn't see it coming (lol.) skeptics have issued challenges to any and all psychics for years. a scientific challenge to prove whether or not they really are psychic . the challenge is 1,000,000 dollars. you would think at least one of them would have stepped up by now. the test of a true visionary is 100 per cent accuracy. in the bible if someone made a prophecy and...

Nope, I don't believe it. There has been 1000s of 'psychics', but only 1 or 2 can really take credit for 'hits' if they were alive today. Orwell could probably take some credit for his 'visionary' books, but the rest are frauds. I think the 3 6/49 hits are 'urban legend'.

Nope. Sorry. But that sounds like 'urban legand'. I've read several stories about how a ugly Mel Gibson had his face almost completely removed in a very violent incident with a thug(or several thugs, don't remember). He got plastic surgury(sp?), and was made into the stud that he is today. The problem is, it never happened. He never got his face kicked in. But one fake story got repeated and became mainstream.

Yep 3 times! Another one hit it twice, but that might be the same guy. Both Ontario, Canada. Probably psychic, a great dowser or something like that. Ever hear of Edgar Cayce. They called him the great American Prophet. Fantastic psychic. From Kentucky. Ran in his family. His Grandfather could make a broom dance a jig across the floor all by itself.

Yep. Read about it in Luck Magazine a few years back and heard it mentioned on the radio a couple of times too. There's another dude who hit the Jackpot twice.. but that might be the same guy before he hit it the third time.

Ya, but winning a 6/49 game 3 times in a few years would be like 25,000,000 x 25,000,000 x 25,000,000. Much much worst odds then winning 135,000,000 x 135,000,000 in one year. Unless you have a billion dollar bank account.

what would be the odds for winning mega millions twice in a lifetime....135,000,000 X2 or 135,000,000 X135,000,000

NO WAY! i want media to support that claim. i have HOWEVER HEARD of a couple in the usa who has hit a million dollar jackpot TWICE.

MrHappy — Sat, 06 Jul 2002 03:24:49 GMT

Are you sure that's not 'urban legend'? No body can win a type of 6/49 jackpot 3 times. Well, if he played $10,000 a week for a life time and live to be 100 years old, it could happen. Twice in a year, ok, that could happen, but not 3 times. There are better odds of hitting the MegaMillions game twice in a year then winning 3 6/49 jackpots in.....how many years

I guess it would depend on the way I won. If I won on a quickpick, then I've hit my one and only chance at it. Time to retire from lotto and open practice in the fine art of loafing...but if I won by some killer system that told me before hand that I was going to win, and win I did.. we go back to that Well again and again, for sure!There's this dude in Canada who hit the 6/49 Jackpot 3 times! Millions in cash each time, all tax-free. He must have a system, and he obviously didn't quit.... [ More ]

I can't give you an exact amount. It would depend on how much 'seeing America' traveling I would do. I would put down $20 on each lottery draw in whatever state I would be traveling through. So if I was in Texas, I would play $20 times 10 'advance' draws. If California, $20 times 20 'advance' draws. In Florida, you can play for 52 'advance' draws. That is $20 x 52 draws. But, knowing myself well, I wouldn't travel, I wouldn't do a damm thing but sit on my a$$, eat, drink, chain smoke, and craw m... [ More ]

EZMoney you jabroni The Rock says watch who you are calling a liar. The Great one did win $150,000 and The Rock believes that after he said that he was the winner from illinois that he later came back and said that he was kidding and just having a little fun and that he did not win for it is ment for him to win the mega millions new huge jackpot. DO not hate The Rock for the greatness that he is destined for you jabroni.The RockP.S. After The Rock wins his huge fortune no he will not play again

yeah but not that kind of cash. if i won $5mil after taxes and all that sh1t i would maybe spend $100 a week maybe $200 on the big jackpots. but if i had 5 mil id be chillin somewhere on a nice warm sunny beach not worrying about winning the lotto.

If you won a large amount of money..say $5,000,000 would you play the lottery more? I mean drastically more like spending maybe a $1000 or maybe $5000 a week insteade of the $10 to $20 a week? Post your reply...I think it will get some interesting answers.
