Which way would work best?Reply
I don't think it's a matter of where you buy the ticket, but rather where you are a resident. As far as I know, whether you win the lottery or not, you have to have a state of residency, in other words where do you live and work, buy insurance, where you are paying utility bills, the address you give your employer, get your mail, do business, etc. When you file your income taxes every April, you have to put a resident address. Having said that, I'm sure it doesn't matter where you buy your

And another thing, do lotteries ever get audited? I mean by a true, individual, separate non-affiliated audit group? I dont know how they couldnt but it just seems there could easily be so much corruption in lottery but in todays world, post-Enron, it seems lotteries would be tightly audited (and casinos for that matter)

Florida: 8/1 - 8/31/2010Reply
FL lotto isn't bad per se, its just a prime example of coincidences , coincidences that can no longer be called coincidences and need to be explained. I pointed out some of what I'm talking about earlier. Pretests and tube rotation (as pointed out by joker17) are the prime suspect, until I conduct an audit I encourage everyone to ask FL for its pretests for each daily game. We need to start requesting and posting pretests, especially people in Florida. we might even develop a system based on pre

New York: 6/1 - 6/30/2010Reply
6/13/2010 Early-California (3-Ball, CA) 344 6/13/2010 Late-New York (3-Ball, NY) 744 If they didn't rig the lottery so bad they wouldn't have the machine puking out the same numbers that were supposed to come long time but they keep suppressing with their pre-tests . Either stop pre-tests and let the machine spit out the numbers when it wants to, or audit and shut the lottery down. God knows I'm sick of the $hit.

Give us ur records :)Reply
I find no obscurity with the term All gambling wins must be reported and is taxable . This is in the link I provided. If by chance you receive an audit, just tell them you didn't report the winnings because you believed the codes were just too confusing.....lol Good luck !

Saving losing tickets?Reply
I've had the pleasure (sarcasm) of being audited several years ago. The fun part of it is, several years later the State is now dripping their hands into the pot. I was told that if you are lucky enough to get audited and you had claimed a W2G form during the year that you were audited and happened to be called in to show proof of everything that you have claimed, it's nice to have a bag of those tickets with you. I haven't been asked to bring in proof, but 4 years later, the fact of the audi

Seriously, does this work?Reply
Where you got the money to start the firm is irrelevant but I do have a lottery relative answer. The IRS allows us to deduct up to the amount we win as expenses. For instance if you won $10,000 on a scratch off that becomes gambling income and if you had $10,000 worth of losing tickets, you can deduct it as gambling losses. Sounds easy but if you're called in for an audit, you have to prove you actually bought the tickets and they didn't come from dumpster diving. It would be nice if all o

I have not posted on here in a long time, forgot all my info and had to register again, but couldn't resist this one. I sent them a message about the 000 hitting like they did and that I thought they were cheating and this is what they said... As you may know the automated drawing system is a stand-alone system with no connection whatsoever to the internet or the system that collects data from numbers played at our retail locations. The security and integrity of our games are of utmost import

Anyone tried this? Ball weights to the last decimal digit...Reply
I bet the audit company didn't know this, but if a couple of balls weighs 2.00323 grams and the rest weigh 2.00444 grams then the balls that weigh 2.00323 are going to move a subtly faster way (i am talking speed) but in miliseconds...In seconds you will not see a difference but in miliseconds with a chronometer, you might see the difference, which brings me to the next topic... In miliseconds not all balls are going to move the same speed (well i depends on the dimensions of the machine, but
