Are Lotteries RiggedReply

Just to set the record straight on a few points mentioned in this thread:1. Buying the 2nd ticket DOES increase your odds to 2 in 1,000,000.

To say that lottery balls have no memory is not the issue. Perhaps there is one

Winning the JACKPOT: Is it Fate, Destiny or Luck?
Do you think that winning the JACKPOT is Fate, Destiny, Luck or other? Please explain...if possible. I believe that it's a bit of a combination of the above. For example: You wait your turn in line. Now your next...money in hand, You step up and say One Power Ball (or Mega Millions) ticket please. Out pops the ticket from the printer. You put it in your wallet and go on about your day, not giving that ticket another thought. The drawing is held and all of the numbers dra
