I know that this is technically not a lottery question, it's about PCH Sweepstakes bankruptcy .Reply
He said this left him financially ruined and he can't find a job as he hasn't worked in roughly 10 years and is an older man. He said he blew his PCH Annuity payments frivolously Poor decisions can lead to all sorts of problems. If he's lucky some of that frivolous spending resulted in assets that can be sold, such as more house than a guy with a modest fixed income (he probably qualifies for social security) needs, and Walmart might give him a job as a greeter. What do the wronged PCH

The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
I'm thinking about buying more tickets, but the big question for me is how many would I buy? I posted above that I won 40 bucks (cash) and I did buy one ticket with that money. I still have the other twenty dollar bill in my wallet, so maybe I'll buy another ticket with that. For now I'm keeping my eye on the raffle just to see what happens. Sales have been slow... about 3600 a day, so if they remain slow that'll have some bearing on whether or not I'll buy more. I'm a fan of raffles..

Probability of winning with multiple ticketsReply
I'm 99.9999% positive I've used that explanation in previous exchanges with Coin Toss, but as you can see the concept is still too elusive. 99.999 Any real crap's dealer could easily explain, even though there are six ways to roll a 7 and three ways to roll a 4 or 10, why the odds are expressed as 2 to 1 . You must be feeling brave or lucky to bring up reciprocals when we've got people that can't understand that 2/4 and 1/2 are the same thing. Yep, over five pages ago it was thoro

The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
Does anybody know if any of the top prize winners of a million dollars in the current raffle will be able to remain anonymous? I won 40 bucks yesterday. I'm going to spend it on two millionaire raffle tickets. If I was ever so lucky to win one of the top prizes, I'd want to claim it anonymously, but I'm not sure that can happen. For Florida draw games (Lotto, PB, MM Fantasy5) only winners names of the top prize (a jackpot win) appear in The Top Prize Winners and Retailers Report publishe

$167 million Powerball lottery winner arrested a THIRD TIME after burglarizing home for $12kReply
You got and won $167 Mill in the PB and you're gonna break into someone's house to steal $12,000? And your getaway car is a black Porsche. Yeah, that shouldn't be too hard to spot. Some places, you break into someone's house you get turned into Sounds like you got lucky twice. https://youtube.com/shorts/KALhynXxKp0?si=Y1e4PMc5560Y-vUA And yes, you DID pass the audition for an episode of World's Dumbest Criminals.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
I think what winoneday meant was that it was bad luck for the house. In the long run, the average jackpot won will equal the expected value. In a game like this, a drawing every few days with odds of 1 in 300 million, the long run could be many years. In a short period of time, the players can be lucky which means the house (MUSL) is unlucky. Unlike other games like pick 3 or any table game or slot machine in a casino, where more jackpots are good for business because the long run for th
