I wonder how many folks living paycheck to paycheck, spent a paycheck on tickets? Wasn't there a good discourse on lottery in George Orwell's 1984?

I never buy lottery tickets, and I didn't today either, but had I thought of it I might have thrown 5 bucks at it. I know the chances are astronomical.. but astronomical isn't impossible.

I don't play it to win I play it for fun. It's the what if factor. Much more entertaining for $2 than going to watch a movie not worth seeing for over $12 and wasting a little more than an hour of your life .

I enjoy thinking about what I would do with it and how the best way to positive change as many life's as possible with it.

If someone wins on here, could you please crank start the fur industry for the rest of us pretty please and thank you.
You'd have 10% of what the Chinese bring and 100% more than what the Russians and Ukrainians have, so kick start us!

Don't count on fur prices. Oh and did you know Halsey burned a few weeks ago?

300,000,000 divided by 200,000 coyotes = $1500 coyotes!
Yessiree bobbie!

Oh and I was aware about Halsey Gary. I was headed out north of Thereford to trap a ranch I haven't been on in 5 years now, but our pastor's wife was diagnosed recently with grave cancer, so I'm lending a hand here instead of laying steel at present = the priorities we make in this life.

My rancher sent me pics of the region that burned.
I'll hope to see him next fur season.
I enjoy those Sand Hills!

Blessings,

No winner BTW...... 1.2 billion now.

Mark what church would you be tithing 56,000,000 to?

^^^^ huh?

It’s unfortunate that our government has stooped to defrauding the lowest common denominator of the American public with the lottery. It is funded mostly, by people who can ill afford to play. Sad commentary on the treatment of the lower caste.

good luck boys, Alaska doesn't have powerball.

The truth!

That would be cool

I would guess it will be closer to $1.5B tomorrow.
I'll take the annuity. I will set up a trust so my heirs & estate will be taken care of. There's a lot of charities organizations is love to help big time. Lots of investments especially land.

You better take the lump sum. If something happens to you your family isn't getting any of the rest. Invest it yourself, that's all the lottery corporation is doing.

I'd buy some good lures
New Truck

A building in Deadwood and a chunk of land out there in SD

Land in Wyoming where I hunted as a kid a lot.
10,000acre ranch near ucross

I wouldn't donate a dime to any politician or party. Don't know one I like or trust.

If I win I'm going to throw a big convention for both the NTA and FTA. If any disputes between members of these fine associations occurs, I would provide the cage and the $1,000,000 prize for last man standing.

We got our tickets!! I wont play unless its over a Billion,,,cause when I win I want to make fun off all them Millionairs.

They got me to contribute at work
