praxis posted:I'd love to play the lottery, but the leadership of my state believes the only gambling God approves of is Bingo. Specifically, Bingo being run by a "non-profit" whose executive board is composed of state legislators, their family members and business partners. Sounds a lot like Alabama, except even charity bingo got 86ed so more people can spend their hard-earned gambling dollars in casinos on Native American land and Mississippi casinos, as God intended.

lol @ people pinning their hopes and dreams for wealth and success on a bunch of $2 tickets because they lack the smarts, drive, luck and connections to make their own wealth That said, I'll buy a ticket so I won't feel left out.

Three Olives posted:If I don't win and I think we all agree that I would be the most awesome Powerball winner I hope some poor hick that dropped out of high school wins and blows the money in a few years in a well documented and completely spectacular fashion. Like I want them completely penniless in less than 5 years. Let the winner be a super-religious 65-year-old woman and have a televangelist continuously swindle her out of millions upon millions of dollars with schemes and promises that become ever more ludicrous with each passing year. Cut to five years later. She's penniless and sitting in the living room of her unheated single-wide trailer, thinking she's gonna be blessed because she gave more than her fair share to the Lord. And then she freezes to death. 90s Solo Cup fucked around with this message at 02:25 on Jan 13, 2016 |

potee posted:I hope the winner is some smug STEM graduate who bought one single ticket because the expected value was positive I hope the winner is a Mexican immigrant who uses the money to become a self-made narcotrafficante. Cut to ten years later when he's finally in U.S. custody after spending years on the run while his lieutenants fight each other for a chance to take over his drug empire.
