Okla. lawmaker aims to stop lottery winners from staying anonymousReply
I am certain NH allows winners to remain anonymous whether or not they state it. The reason is because in May I posted that when I lived in NH a person could not remain anonymous and copied the rules onto my post. Then I read an article announcing that someone in NH won $85 million playing PB and they decided to remain anonymous and I apologized. I'd have to go all the way back and check my posts, but I am very sure I read in the paper that the lottery in NH announced they would honor the winne

Okla. lawmaker aims to stop lottery winners from staying anonymousReply
I'm guessing that the statement is the result of a stupid politician meaning that it would be okay for a trust to claim a prize if the trust was formed before the ticket was purchased. The article suggests that his issue is with people forming a trust specifically to claim a prize they have already won. Since trusts and corporations are already legal entities they have the right to buy and own lottery tickets, as well as other property. Of course that begs the question of what his legislation

A Challenge to CASH Only from SirMetroReply
i have hashed this out with Cashonly and all i can say is your beating a dead horse. the only valid reason he had and it was posted in a news article is a 90+ yr old unknowingly won a annuity only prize paid out over 20 yrs. he tried to contest the lottery for a cash value claiming he would never live long enough to collect on the total payout. On this i agree that a person above the age of 80 should be able to get a cash only payout. Or be allowed to pass the remainder of the annuity to a

N.J. investigators warn of lottery scamReply
I should probably stop posting when I see a news article like this, because I sound mean and I'm not. The people who scam others to steal their money are terrible human beings and should be punished severely. Too bad a lot of them aren't caught. I really feel awful when I hear that people are scammed. In fact, one reason I've had trouble at a few jobs is because I won't take advantage of anyone or lie. However, the people in these articles really have to be stupid!! Sorry, just the way I

The dissapointing, Not dissapointing Irony
Usually I will ask my system to punch out it's first 20 set of numbers or more depending on the level of the jackpot........I would noramally add to those 4 set of special numbers based on family dates etc.........Last night one of those set of numbers came in............they came in a game I don't play....Powerball.

Claim back your missing money
Up to 15 billion worth of financial assets, including savings accounts, premium bonds, shares and investment polices, lie unclaimed in Britain. That s about 250 for every man woman and child in the country. The Unclaimed Assets Register reckons that 5 billion of savings, 3 billion worth of shares, 3 billion of pensions, 3 billion of national savings assets, 1 billion of life insurance policies and 300 million of lottery winnings are unclaimed. Earlier this month, Standard Life sa

Analysts say online gambling law a bad ideaReply
For me, the ultimate measure of how bad this law is can be summed up by what has taken place in Washington State: The law in Washington is so strict, he says, it has become a crime to even write about gambling. The Seattle Times was told it would have to discontinue its poker column because it was now illegal, Balko said. In addition, several gambling publications have now canceled subscriptions to Washington State residents. So now people cannot even write about something. This i

US House votes to kill Internet gamblingReply
Everyone who keeps saying that lotteries and horse racing are allowed under the bill, STOP SAYING THAT. Lotteries and horse racing are NOT included in the bill. Re-read the article at the beginning of this thread. It says: Reps. Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., and Jim Leach, R-Iowa sponsored the bill. They successfully beat back an amendment to strip out exemptions in the legislation for the horse racing industry and state lotteries. Goodlatte called that a poison pill amendment, aimed at def

US House on the brink of taking away online gambling rightsReply
Has anyone considered this may be a diversionary technique to draw our attention away from the real issue which is unfettered immigration (invasion), and implementing the treaty which combines Mexico, US and Canada into one large territory without borders???? Democrats overwhelmingly have voted FOR open borders and FOR amnesty as congressional votes have clearly demonstrated. A diversion is created when someone wants to slide something through that wouldn't be allowed under close scruti

Your influence in this vibrational universe
Your influence in this vibrational universe (lenghty, here's a sample from the article and the link): Everything is about Energy, and everything is about vibration. Everything vibrates, and everything is communicating and reacting, responding and integrating with other things that are vibrating. In other words, this is a Vibrational Universe that we are all a part of. Everything is vibrating, and as you give your attention to it, and hold your attention upon it for as little a
