    Lottery

    I just saw the latest powerball jackpot and was wondering, how many here play the lottery?

    I buy one ticket a week for our lottomax, and belong to two lotto pools (coworkers/friends)

    I can see 1.4 BILLION dollars going a long way in my preps.

    Give a man fire, and he'll be warm for a day!
    Light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life!

    Cat's are food... not friends!

    If you're going to fight, then fight like you're the third monkey on the ramp into Noah's arc... and brother, it's starting to rain.

    I play here and there. Usually one powerball easy pick and one mega millions. I quit picking my own numbers after learning the easy picks have a 70% greater chance of winning.

    I see 1.4b doing way more than preps for me . That's a LOT of hookers and blow.

    I rarely play any lotto. But I started on this one around the 400 million mark. Couple tickets a pop won't kill me I don't guess.

    1.4B would go a long way toward what ever you wanted to spend it on.

    I've never bothered with the lottery. Just always seemed pointless to me.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes

    I do every week. My Pop always said "you can't win if ya don't play" When he explained the Irish lottery ticket he would buy. No he didn't win the big prize but he came close a couple of times.

    If I had 1.xB dollars, all the active members on this forum would move to my encampment and enjoy life there... with me being the ruler, of course. I have simple rules to follow: Everyone has a vote, everyone carries a weapon, and everyone carries there weight. Other than that, we live off grid... camp fires, hunt, fish, community dances, bingo.. When the bubble goes up we wont even know it... we wont be affected (except our high speed internet pipe goes down...).
