Car salesmen lottery pool wins $16 million jackpotReply
It's a good way to find out who can afford to play and who should keep their money for better things. Those folks that didn't play aren't as sorry as they would have been had they spent $50 and lost. Playing the lottery is gambling and people shouldn't gamble more than they can afford to lose.RJOh

Texas Lottery critic turns down selection committee postReply
If Texas is willing to offer the same kind of money that Tennessee offered to lured her from Georgia, they'll get plenty of good applicants, but it may just be another political appointment.RJOh

Calif. Lottery uses trick as Dems continue undermining Mega MillionsReply
Just6ntlc may be too young to play the lotteries, he/she doesn't sound like any Democrat that I know. But then I could be wrong because some of my friends are Republicans and I never knew until they ran in the local elections and asked for my support.RJOh

Honest store clerk returns $100,000 lottery ticketReply
I keep all my losing tickets for tax purposes just in case I win some money later. Lottery players should request the return of all their tickets unless the clerk need them as a record of payouts. Some clerks will even return your winning tickets after the payouts has been recorded at the terminal.RJOh

Honest store clerk returns $100,000 lottery ticketReply
I'm sure that clerk preferred to have a honest tip regardless of the amount or he would have cashed in the ticket himself and had a dishonest $100,000 and the fear of being caught.RJOh

Lottery numbers company ordered to refund customersReply
Most of those companies offer a guarantee of a new set of numbers free if there aren't any winners in the first set. Reminds me of a story I read 20+yrs ago about a Cleveland man who complained to the police about a money printing machine he bought that didn't work. I get similar offers over the phone since I retired, some people must think retiring and getting stupid are the same thing.RJOh

Texas Lottery jackpot mess has critics enragedReply
If sales are down 26% from last year, then it shouldn't be hard to figure that the amount of money for prizes would be down 26% too. TLC had a chance to check their estimates with the actual figures after each drawings and should have adjusted their future estimates accordingly. If they were trying to really be honest, they would have error on lower side of the actual amount, but that probably would reduced sales even further.RJOh

'Beyond lucky': Woman wins same $1M lottery jackpot twice in 6 monthsReply
Rjoh 1/2 the battle is having a positive attitude about winning. Quote (Can't see myself ever being that lucky.) sounds like you've convinced yourself that you ain't going to win. Instead of feeling like that try and say today is my day. I'm going to win get the positive attitude juices flowing. When i hit my first big win i knew i was going to win i had every vision of winning and a very positive feeling about winning.

That woman was a lucky gambler. I'll can't see myself ever being that lucky because I can't see paying $20 for one scratch-off ticket. As they say You can't win if you don't play , but good luck to those who do.RJOh
