Powerball Players?

[Nemont]

I don't buy tickets for the lottery but was seeing that the prize is up to
$ 365 Million
$ 177.3 Million Cash Value !!! (Man I could buy alot of hunting land with that)
For Saturday's drawingI may drop a few bucks in on some tickets. Anybody skipping their car payments to play the Powerball?

I'll probably spend a couple bucks on it. One of the first things I'd be looking to spend money on would be a good piece of hunting ground as well. Its a nice dream isn't it.

NO....... I'm going to pass on this one, Althuogh I do like to Gamble, I like Odds I think I have a Little control of. I look atthe Lotto like throwing $10 out the Window while you're driving down the freeway and Hoping to find a $20 in you Driveway when you get home. I havenevr found the 420.... but I've also never thrown a 410 out the window

Although I didn't play for the 325MILL.... I did Drop a Few 's$ to buy another house. this time it's in Utah. figure I'd gamble and venture out of my comfort zone OHHHH dang !!!!! House count up to 7 now, but I'm not playing the Lotto......

wow i wish we had the lotto here in wyoming that would almost pay off the wifes credit cards.
or i could buy all new company trucks,trenchers, back hoes, crains digger trucks, boring machines, and still have enough to pay off the company i bought in june.
then i'd have time to bowhunt more this year.
tell then its off to work i go.
i did manage to get my elk with the bow but i had to kill my deer with a rifle in the worlds shortest deer hunt.first day out a 165' buck bit the dust 45 sec into leagle shooting time.

Middleton, I heard secondhand that WY was getting Powerball soon.

 

[elkay]

[Moosie]

Mega Millions is what is played in Ohio.

The lottery is a tax on people too stupid to comprehend math. Looks like there's a lot of stupid people out there!

 

[Moosie]

Sometimes I waste money..... I don't blink at Dumping $50 a day in Gas to go hunting. I also like Gambling. So you'd think I was a BIG canidate for the "Stupid tax". Thats what people call it. But I know Math and know the odds of winning, or better yet, not winning. So I never play. I wouldn't even know how to order a Ticket to play.

That being said, when the office pool came around I'm a "team Player" and gave them $5. It was more of being part of something the office wanted to do. I don't have any of the numbers although I think they were handed out. I figure if one day I go to the office after tehy draw the numbers one day and No one is there we won

 

[Gunner46]

I picthed in a $. WTF! It cost a $ for a Honey Bun these days!

 

[Steiny]

Read somewhere that a large portion of American society thinks that they have a better shot at winning the lottery and retiring comfortably, than they do of saving for a comfortable retirement.
A pretty sad state of affairs.

Good luck guys. I'd prefer to spend throw away dollars in a go go joint, rather than dump it on the lotto. Plus it freaks me out when I'm in the gas station trying to get in and out quick and some moron is holding up the line making executive decisions over lotto tickets.

 

[cjcj]

Its a "sucker" bet... but i threw down $20. bucks on it.....I bought 3 tickets in the health /wealth raffle... 1-18 odds and it goes to a great cause also tax deductable. won a mini theater system last year.

 

[Oak]

G46, where did you find Honey Buns, and why does she charge so little?

 

[noharleyyet]

It was won by a single person...take home money is somewhere over 120 million...that's a stiff tax bracket.

 

[Moosie]

YAH.. but I didn't mind paying it ...

As usual I spent $10.00 so someone some where could be rich.
