I dropped $40 on. 20 tickets.

Then we get real serious talking about how we’d spend the money and who we give to. I told the wife Id give all the kids, family and extended family $5m each. Then buy a house in Key West and move there for a couple years. Maybe a place in New Zealand too.

My oldest son, 32, always gets mad when I tell him Id give him a million. Like we are EVER gonna win smile

Why should I contribute to making someone else rich?

I've only heard of one time that a work group hit a big lottery and the majority of them DIDN'T QUIT. Couldn't figure that one out. laugh2 It's a wonder that any boss would allow a workplace group to do lottery pools for fear of losing most of the workforce in one day. shruggy laugh2 laugh2 laugh2

I knew a really great guy who made a career of selling specialty metal alloys.
He was already comfortably well off when he won a $6 million lottery.

He took $5 million and created a fund for a Down Syndrome grandson’s lifetime care.

He took the other $1 million and used the interest to buy more lottery tickets every morning.

Nine years later he won another $2 million.

There is an Australia based company that monitors worldwide lotteries and steps in and buys up all unpurchased numbers when the odds are favorable.

Being an underground coal miner is kind of a lottery.

There are 0.5 deaths every 100,000 hours worked.

40 hours a week times 50 weeks/yr times 50 years

Offshore fisherman, farmers, and loggers are now more dangerous than miners.

What are the numbers for track only drag racers?

If it gets to a record I might buy one. I haven't bought one since a couple records back so maybe I'll try it again some day.

Mega Millions isn't quite at a record amount yet, but it's over a billion.

I bought two, as I told the lady who sold them to me "If I win I will find all those friends I didn't know I had". She has better odds of getting money from me than any of those unknown friends do, lol.

What will I do with it?

Retire and build hot rods.

If you are happy with your life why win more money than you could ever spend and ruin it.
