The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
There is no maybe about it. They have advertised that there will be (10) 1 million dollar prizes, even if only one ticket is sold. If they renege on paying out (10) 1 million dollar prizes, it is false advertising at best, and fraud at worst.

Secrets of a lottery lawyer-Kurt Panouses interviewReply
honest question, what is the advantage of hiring someone advertising themselves as a lottery lawyer over someone who simply has a proven track record of handling large estates and trusts? nothing against the guy, i'm sure he's competent and his clients are happy, but instinctively i'd prefer someone with less visibility. aside from the cost, what is really the downside of hiring a big city firm? in a major population center, they'd probably have some experience helping lottery winners even if th

Google is your friend. Although it's obvious that you are here to advertise this guy, so you'll contibue to act like it's not a way to anonymity and this guy is the savior. But everyone else should google it before they hire the guy you're advertising.

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Based on the worksheet I figured a roll should be about 1.011 billion, but playing it safe and advertising an even billion isn't a surprise. The most recent worksheet estimates the supported annuity at 1.017. Monday's jackpot finished almost exactly at the estimate for the supported annuity (a hair over 40k higher, based on the numbers I've seen), and last nights was about 3.6 million higher (935.5 vs an estimated 932.4). Now we just wait and see if advertising a jackpot starting with a B will g

The Florida Millionaire Raffle is back!Reply
Hey G5! Good to see you're also fighting the good fight! I'm in the raffle because it came out right at a time when I decided to take a break from the lottery. I quit playing scratch-offs awhile back. I had been playing JTP regularly, but the method I'm using for number selection dictated a break until June (don't ask!) If by felt that you really could you mean 'can I afford it?' then yes. Considering the recent inflationary trends, I am fortunate to be in a position to still have disc

Long term member and attorney as well. I am sure the owner of the site does not view useful tips as advertising. And take a look at the anonymity summary I prepared that the LP owner pinned to the Jackpot forum. You are mad that I pointed out your incorrect reference to a double blind trust. Google is not the way to ascertain legal advice and is often incorrect. You are definitely an accident waiting to happen should you ever win big.

New Hampshire Lottery launches $30 scratch-off ticket offering record $3 million top prizeReply
Tucker is right. The cash jackpot is the real jackpot. If a winner chooses the annuity the cash amount of the jackpot is simply invested to pay the annuity. The annuity payout is promoted in advertising jackpots to look better.

263272 tickets sold as of 5/21. Let's work this one from the back end. 640900 tickets need to be sold just to fund all prizes (so, does not includes costs incurred by the Lottery to set up the Raffle, or associated advertising, and does not include funding for education, which is the Lottery's raison d'etre.) 640900 minus 263272 leaves 377628 tickets needing to be sold by June 30, the last day to buy tickets (40 days from now.) 377628 divided by 40 equals an average of 9440 tickets need to

Lottery is not random it's predeterminedReply
I've always believed that state lotteries truly want winners, especially big jackpot winners. What does rigging a draw do for the state? Are the people that run the draws going to benefit from a rigged draw? How? Are they really going to get a hold of the money and buy mansions, and sports cars? Naw... State lotteries truly want winners because it's the best kind of advertising to get more people to buy tickets. They put out a press statement that a ticket purchased in Hicktown won $100 mil

$2 million and $500,000 Powerball lottery prizes set to expire in South DakotaReply
If I win, can I remain anonymous? Should a lottery prize winner choose to remain anonymous when claiming the prize, the South Dakota Lottery will honor that request. It should also be noted that the Lottery will release the name of the retailer that sold the winning ticket, game name and prize amount. The winning player s personal information will never be shared for advertising or promotions unless the player opts into this on their claim form. However, if the Lottery receives an open
