Winner of $95 million Lotto Texas lottery jackpot gamed the odds to winReply
Well, I use a courier service to buy tickets in overseas lotteries.. The service I am currently using allows me to buy tickets in Powerball and MegaMillions (but not powerplay/ multiplier -- a previous service did.. Different purchasing model.. More on that later) and various other international lotteries (Euromillions, EuroJackpot, SuperEnaLotto, Uk, France, Spain, Poland, Germany...) The tickets are sort of 2.25 x face value.. A Powerball / MegaMillions ticket is US$4.55. IIRC, the

$2 billion Powerball lottery winner buys $25.5 million Hollywood Hills mansionReply
So obviously the guy has some kind of advising, but I don't think it's very good. Maybe he did it himself online for $39.95. Believe it or not, I've read that some people think you can do it all on your own without any advisors at all. I don't think that anyone is jealous of this man's win. I'm jealous. I'd much rather have seen the winning numbers on my ticket instead of his. It's interesting that you rarely read about a jackpot winner who has chosen to make large donations to

$2 billion Powerball lottery winner buys $25.5 million Hollywood Hills mansionReply
I don't think that anyone is jealous of this man's win. I think that after all of the discussions that have been had on LP, over many years, regarding what typically happens when a jackpot winner starts spending large amounts of money on luxury items right away, and eventually goes broke, b/c they don't know how to manage sudden immense wealth, that this situation will probably be yet another statistic for the record. It's interesting that you rarely read about a jackpot winner who has chos

$1.5 billion Mega Millions winner explains how "Lottery Lawyer" Jason Kurland stole $83 millionReply
However if someone uses the FOIA we will comply It seems that the policy is to not publicize the winners, but that's very different from allowing winners to be anonymous (which obviously isn't the case if they'll release the information in response to a FOIA request. Over the years I've seen an awful lot of information that said various lotteries were required to release the names of winners and I assumed there was actually a specific law or rule regarding lottery winners in those states. W

Is it worth driving one hour to state that allows anonymity?Reply
Is it worth driving to either state to play a large number of lottery tickets with those odds for the sake of remaining anonymous? Given the odds of wining there's very little sense in buying tickets at all, but unless you're going to by so many tickets that the cost of driving becomes negligible it makes no sense at all to drive far out of your way. As a raw statistic the chance of dying in a traffic accident is 1 in 75 million for every mile you drive. Those aren't bad odds at all when

By Kate Northrop It just so happened that some numbers mentioned in a television show were the lucky numbers a South Carolina player needed to win a $200,000 jackpot in the South Carolina Lottery's Palmetto Cash 5 game. An anonymous South Carolina player was looking for inspiration for his lottery numbers when he saw a series of numbers mentioned on TV.
