Format for the Ideal Lottery PoolReply
1. 120 million 2. 5-10 3. $2 4. No, and no quick picks. 5. Too little for a pole= 1 Too many= 11 or more I think most of the people in the MY pole believe, that when you were born it was known right there your fate. No matter how big or how small the adventure would be, its going to come. I mean statiscally you can give yourself better odds at hitting, but the odds are already so tremendous.

Easy come, easy go... or maybe not!
I posted this news article about a guy who won a 1.8 million lotto, but the ticket originally was printed in error so he ask for it to be reprinted, which I did not know it could be done. Anyway what would you do in this situation??? Fight it out in court or throw chances to the wind, also has anyone encountered this issue with any ticket, winning or not??? It just seemed odd......

6 Disturbing Lottery "Trends"
Disturbing Lottery Trends : (in no particular order) 1) Computerization of lotteries 2) Increasing standard/typical lottery tickets to TWO dollars from one dollar [example: PA's Match 6] 3) Decreasing amount of prizes on ALL levels [example: PA's new Mix Match which I have renamed Flip Switch and their Match 6, renamed Botched 6 -- search my previous posts for explanations] 4) Millionaire Raffle Drawings that truly do not offer $1,000,000 after taxes 5) Succeeding or follo
