Lottery jackpots may get biggerReply
I'm sorry for your loss, Hawkeye90. Perhaps for your case, it would be better to set aside, maybe, a dollar a day/week and create a lottery fund of sorts that you can play with safely. If playing 50 dollars on 25 Powerball tickets is enough money to be considered a wasteful dent in yor life, then you really should limit the amount of times you play. Look at this recent winner, from the looks of it, they probably played, roughly, 3 Powerball tickets with Powerplay. It was only 9 dollars and they

Proposed Buffett Rule and How It Would Apply to Some Lottery Winners Who InvestReply
Exactly. However reforms definitley need to be made. I would suggest these; 1-mandatory drug testing for anyone collecting benefits. 2-mandatory career training. 3-not being punished for actually TRYING to go to work, example; If your collecting aide and you get a job paying chump change they will completely take you off, instead I believe you should be gradually taken off depending on how much you make. No 1 can support a family on minimum wage. 4-and conversely you should not be re

$325 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot increased before draw dateReply
Oh my.................!. Good luck hiding THAT kind of amount! $203,000,000 which is about $132,000,000 (I am working on a tack bracket of 35%) If your state doesn't have state taxes we are talking about $150,000,000, just for the taking! Oh my word!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What the heck is a soul supposed to do with such an amount?! On a second thought, wrong question As one member on this post mentioned, 1 ticket should suffice. I predict should anybody win this Saturday, it would be a sing

$325 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot increased before draw dateNews Story
Will set US all-time record if no winner Saturday By Todd Northrop As a result of brisker than expected ticket sales, lottery officials announced today that the Powerball jackpot has been raised from $310 million to $325 million for Saturday's drawing.

Florida Lottery education spending investigatedReply
The sad part of all this is that lottery money has been used, especially the past 10-15 years, as 'in lieu of' funding for schools. That means taxes are cut, or funding to schools decreased, in the amount (sometimes less as here in Virginia) transfered from lottery 'aid'. One big reason nearly every state does this is to get out of a having to pay for schools with increased tax rates as are really needed to fund them. A recent study showed that every state that funds schools with lottery proceed

Florida 1/3 thru 1/16/12Reply
Good luck today peeps. One thing to think about: Typically FL will have a draw every 10-15 draws (on average) that has no repeats. It has now been 45 consecutive draws where at least 1 # has repeated. A No repeat draw is very due. This is good is you want to increase your odds by eliminating the past draws digits. Last draw was 0965 Might be a good idea to play from the #'s : 123478. I know the odds are still high, but may be wise to only play out of those #s and continue

Powerball multi-state lottery to raise prices, jackpotsReply
Thanks for the reminder. $3 a line. BS. I won't be playing this game. I just love how smooth the reasons for the increase roll off the officials lips. 'We wouldn't be doing it if we didn't think more money would be coming back to the states and help them with revenues during these tough economic times' Rich said. Actually it seems to me it's more like - We wouldn't be doing it if the tough economic times have forced some players to quit playing Powerball altogether and we need to mil
