Didn't win. A little disappointed in that. Don't want it all, couple hundred thousand would be good enough. Tired of going to the slave hut everyday. Wife told me to take a week vacation. One week ain't going to get it. |

If you had - just think you would have had to go into hiding as all them long lost relatives would be asking for a small stippent to tide them ove - Just a Million or so until payday. That full thing of most winners are in worse shape in 5 years than they were before - so take that money you were going to spend on them 10 lottery tickets - go see your local liquor store clerk and get some Ole Rotgut - sip it down and you'll have a good headache in the AM and forget that you are in the same place you were the day before - poor working class stiff with ideas of grandeur - but saved from a life where everything would have changed in a instant ------------- Faith isn't a jump in the dark. It is a walk in the light. Faith is not guessing; it is knowing something. "Challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful." |

I try to not buy lottery tickets around home. If I won, the workers at the store would look at the security tape and figure out who it was who won. Some of the people I fly are lawyers. They have already given me advise to help hide from those who would try to take advantage. These lawyers have some big money clients as well as the everyday joe. I already have formulated a plan to help me keep a low profile. The problem with my plan is I need to win.

I am one of those that wins every time they draw a number... i win what i did not spend ------------- Holding a grudge is like taking poison and expecting the other person to die |

Bingo!! That's the plan. May be a working stiff but always have been without delay and no excuses. But like I said, don't want it all, just enough to get the daily grind off my back. Ain't nothing wrong with wanting that. |

| I am with Clay, also. Remain anonymous. I would be plum happy to win enough to pay off my debt; get me over this hump that I've been climbing for a good number of years. But I guess I better hope for enough to get me a nice shop, and a house for the wife, too. I never buy tickets for those pots that are in the hundreds of millions. That's crazy money, and odds of winning aren't as good as they are for the small jack pots. I go for the ones that are under 5 million, and I don't exactly splurge on them. It's kind of embarrassing when a guy in line in front of me is doling out 100 dollar bills for tickets, and then I step up to the counter and ask for two lotto America tickets. LOL! I've always contended that 100 people should get a million dollar prize, instead of one person getting a 100 million dollar prize. But the cold hard truth is, people are greedy. When the jackpot gets stupidly high, that's when people go crazy buying tickets. Darrel |
