Maryland Lottery machine glitches frustrate playersReply
Yea to bad the gamble with schwab is ten times worse than playing the lottery. so is the return. I'll stick with 500 to one and 5000 to one. the only people who benefit from stocks are the brokers even if you lay down big bucks. before I'll let the brokers have my losses. i keep working the lottery. I sent the writer of the article a strong letter about John Christopoulos (sheep remark) if he doesn't like his loyal lottery players maybe he should turn in his machine to someone who wants

$8 million lottery dispute grips SpainReply
I might be misunderstanding this, but I thought Todd was referring to the LP toolbar, not the one on our individual browsers. I'm going to see if it works for me. It's the symbpl next to the smiley face. 6 million, 20 ...yup, worked for me. Thanks, Todd. ----------------- Regarding the topic, it sounds as if this man is being very dishonest and immoral, but maybe he really wasn't part of the pool at work. I've been in situations where I asked some people if they wanted to parta

$265 million Mega Millions lottery jackpot claimed anonymouslyReply
From a previous article on here - this is why I think you have to claim your prize anonymously, even amounts far less than $265 million. You have to ask what good being famous or notorious does you. > Life is good, but it's not a constant party, said Susan Bradley, a certified financial planner who founded >the Sudden Money Institute in Florida, which provides resources and training for new wealth recipients >and their advisers. > It's hard, she said. You can change your

Florida Lotto fever peaks with tonight's $64 million drawingReply
In addition to not having a game-wide cash option, this is what the new GA-KY-VA Lose for Life is lacking: the suspense that comes with a big jackpot. In fact Lose for Life DOES NOT have a true jackpot. CashOnly I'm guessing you're not talking about the FL Lotto here, but I just don't see how winning $100,000 a year for the rest of your life would be losing. If I got a call from a lawyer today notifying me that someone left me money in a trust that will payout $50,000 a year for the next 20

Lottery winner is arrested for failing to appearReply
He's going to continue to work. I'll tell you that, she said. I think he forgot to count the amount of zeros when he won. Perhaps his mother was referring to his brain. (hey, without Chewie around somebody has to say it!) I guess he couldn't avoid the news, but this reminds me of one of those Darwin awards like the true story about the man who held up the window where you pay at a McDonalds drive-thru without realizing there was a car at the pickup window in front of him and another in

Joke- What's the difference betweenReply
Maybe we all need to really study the book of Numbers! LOL - Clever, Coin Toss! Amazing that this thread started with a joke, which was cute BTW. I'm not going to join in this debate because I don't think praying to G-d for money is prayer at all. I think Jim Morrison put it best when he said You cannot petition the Lord with prayer. Oh, I've had many days lately where I've pleaded Oh, please get me out of this terrible mess and I'll be a good person, feed the poor, blah, blah

What would the experts do with a lottery jackpot?Reply
Real estate values rarely drop? You should ask Donald Trump how he nearly lost it all after becoming a billionaire. Ask anybody in the Hudson Valley who sold their home in the first few years after IBM laid off thousands of employees. The same story has happened in many other places, and many economists believe the recent housing bubble is likely to burst on a far larger scale. Real estate may represent equity, but it isn't especially liquid and it carries liability, both in taxes and any other

ABC duped by Powerball lottery winner hoaxReply
I think these guys should spend a little time in jail for fraud to discourage future would-be pranksters If all pranksters and hoaxers were put in jail for fraud , then we would see the likes of Ashton Kucher, Tom Green, and Jamie Kennedy behind bars. On second thought, maybe that's a good idea. These guys never actually tried to claim the prize money. THAT would be fruadulant. They were just using the media as a conduit...just like the media uses certain people (victims of crimes,
