I never bother with the lottery, but everyone in my department started a pool and I don't want to be the last one stuck here picking up the pieces on the off chance they win.

My work did that and we had to sign something promising that we all wouldn't quit at the same time if we won. Everyone signed it, but I don't think anyone would loving honor it at all.

Little known pro tip: Ask the gas station attendant to print all 40 tickets on separate sheets. They knows it increases the odds. so keenly wink at them as you do so.

I one time saw two people get into a fight in a gas station over who was next in line for lotto tickets. Like they only give the money to the person that bought it first.

Pools that purchase multiple tickets are so loving dumb. All my retarded colleagues have one running and they ask each person to pay $10 towards a stack of tickets. Dumb apes don't realize that 1 ticket or 40 tickets is the same single pull of the galactic-odds slot machine. What would be smarter is to find 40 people to pitch in a nickel. If they all win, good for them but I'll buy my own ticket and share the cost with my wife. If I win I will donate 1/2 of the proceeds to improve math and critical thinking courses in all schools.

I've seen this because of scratchers. Two women, screaming bloody loving murder in a CoGos because "she took my ticket!" I just wanted a red bull man.

LOL, one person got mad at me by trying to convince others to not go into the pool and waste their money. It's like a goddamn cult.

The machine was down at the gas station last night and multiple people in succession got really pissed off and accused the attendant of lying lol.

Until this leads to someone getting killed for butting in line for a ticket or "stealing my numbers!" we're just barely scraping the schadenfreude surface.

I'm in the office pool for the same reason. gently caress being left behind if everyone else wins 20m or whatever.

I put in $1 to split a ticket with my coworker. I just used the numbers from that win on the first try screenshot earlier in the thread so I have a fun story to tell about how I picked the numbers after I win. Except the powerball doesn't go up to 33 so I had to pick a different one

Can you imagine how much that would suck, you would be like training all the new people and be like, "Yea, I didn't pitch in to buy lottery tickets, now all my excoworkers are millionaires and I'm a little broke bitch still"

Dangerous Mind posted:Since the drawing isn't until Saturday night do you think it could hit like $900M by then? i just paid the idiot tax and its up to 800M. THe women who walked in after me was buying 30 dollars worth of tickets. I'd say theres a very good chance.

Buying more than one or two tickets is insane to me. But I am buying one and a two for the IL MegaMillions since no one cares about the stupid tiny $150million pay out right now. If I win both I will give the entire MegaMillion Payout to a homeless person or something.

IF you win a fun thing to do would go to a currency exchange and get whatever is the worst currency to USD in terms of money value so like 5000000 african country bux to every 10 us dollars. Then get like 1000 dollars worth of it and make your friend dance while you toss it around them.Solice Kirsk posted:Buying more than one or two tickets is insane to me.

I'd buy front row season tickets for the spurs and horns. Donate alot of it to some worthy cause, set up my immediate family for life, and then travel forever around the nba and college football schedule so I don't get murdered and hounded by extended family and friends.

If I win I am going to use a whole bunch of different people and donate the equivalent of several million dollars to Bernie. I'll tell him my plan and say he has to keep my pet interests in mind while he's president.

PowerBall hit on Wednesday, August 18th, in the year 2,986,151 A.D. You spent $622,818,944.00 on tickets. I'm waiting until the take home amount after taxes is over 1 billion USD before buying my ticket. I can't be bothered before then. I want to be one of those evil billionaires bribing politicians and coming up with stupid platitudes for voters to argue about. Also going to buy a fleet of these: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...smart-taxi.html

I'm going to win because this is the first time I've ever played the lotto. Reasons: I won my fantasy football league so I'm feeling lucky I found $10 in the parking lot while grocery shopping which I spent on the tickets I quit my job recently because I just couldn't stand the public anymore I'm loving broke I bought my tickets in bumfuck nowhere U.S.A sorry everyone.

I want to win the lottery so that I can make the world a better place. I want to improve the world because I am filled with spite and hate for the current order and that's where that sends me.

So what’s the best strategy for winning? Richard Lustig has won big jackpots seven different times. “If you play your own numbers, play them regularly. Every time you lose, you gain a little advantage in the next drawing,” he said.

Waltzing Along posted:Here are the #s for Saturday. I demand 10% commission of all your winnings: The odds are the same as any other combo, but I would LOVE for one of the bigger pools like this one to get those numbers on the draw. People would loving riot. Well maybe not riot... But be super pissed. I was kind of annoyed when I got a quick pick the last time there was a big pool, and 4 out of my 5 numbers were below 10, the 5th and power number I don't remember. It means nothing but it irked me, like wtf if I was picking my own numbers, I wouldn't have chosen all those low numbers!!! And if I win, I'll probably go the Mr. Burns route and get myself a prank monkey. I hear being super wealthy can be very lonely for some, so my monkey will keep me entertained.

I've bought four Powerball tickets, and I'm honestly terrified of winning. Once I won $5000 on the superbowl pool at the bar I tended at. Thank god I wasn't working. Soon I had to quit. No one would visit me anymore. If they did, the tips were $0 or $1. Later when I would visit, I'd be glared at. I'd see former customers whispering to their friends while pointing a finger in my direction. This was a working class place in a not great area. If I hit Powerball I'd never see these streets again
