My youngest son just won $350- on scratch off lottery tickets! While I'm very happy for him, he's done it before.
He says he'll get a "feeling" and has learned to trust it!
He doesn't really buy a lot.

I've never won over $1- but I don't play either:)

I have known two people in my life that won over $100,000!
One was a guy I worked with. He bought a farm, ended up in a divorce, and his wife got the farm! He told me winning that money was the biggest headache he ever had. He had family he hadn't saw for a long time needing to "borrow" money!:)

One of my cousins also won $100,000. He got 80,000 after tax. He also bought a house, and still has it.

Do you play the lottery? Do you have dreams of winning? It is possible! How many people do you know that's had winnings? Have you? Guess I should sometimes, OR get my Son to buy my tickets!

I play the lottery every now and then. Really not often. I've won a little bit on scratch off tickets. Mostly I win enough to pay for the tickets that I bought. My sister sent me a scratch off ticket chain letter last year. Where you send out lottery tickets (1 to each person that you send the letter to and 1 to the person whose name is at the top of the list). I won $40 on that one. My sister is in New Jersey and I'm in Colorado, so I had to send her the ticket to cash it in. I told her to keep half of it. I never continued the chain letter. I think I should have. It was kind of a fun twist on the standard chain letter, ya know?

Hi wiccania, Thanks:) That does sound kind of intriguing..
Never heard of that one, a chain of lottery tickets... could work!

I've participated in a couple of "chains" where you sent something interesting. Recipes and books were my favorites.

Hi Heavensent! I rarely play the lottery. Sometimes I think I should, but I don't like to waste the money. I think the most I've ever won is a few bucks off of a scratch off. One of my daughter's friends mom won over $250,000. She took a vacation, and is remodeling her basement!


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi bestisyettocome, thanks:) How are you sweet heart? Good to hear from you! I'm like that too, I always think I'll waste my money (cause usually I do!:) but if you don't play once in a while, you can't win.
Wow, I bet that lady was tickled! I won a small color tv at a grocery store drawing once, I was on top of the world for that!

Hi Heavensent! I'm through with my LPN schooling, pinning ceremony, and party! Now anxiously looking for LPN position and waiting to take the state boards! Yay!

I buy the scratch offs every now and then. Its been a long time since I have won anything. The most I have won on a ticket is $50. I would love to win the lottery. It sure would help me with some of my problems. My biggest problem being....lack of money...


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi polly, thanks!:) I know just what you mean about "lack of money! Take care!

I won 8 Euro (about $10) on a scratchcard once. I didn't let it change me though, it wasn't easy but I tried to keep level headed about winning all that money.
I doubt I'll ever win much money because I only buy scratchcards very occasionally. My father won about £250 on the lottery years ago (before we had the Euro here). He got 5 numbers (out of 6). Unfortunately a lot of other people got 5 numbers that week or it would have been a lot more money.
Congratulations on your son winning all that money:)


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi crispeater,thanks:) I'm so glad you didn't let it go to your head:)
I won a little color TV once in a grocery store drawing, I called everyone in the country telling them! I probably spent more on phone calls than the TV was worth!HAHA!

I've Never played the lottery only because i am under age, But my parents have played and everytime they buy a ticket they loose. But reciently my fieance' and i have been playing KENO. It like the lottery but you when money faster and you can play as many times as you want. You are more likely to win at KENO than the actual lottery itself.

wow!! that's great!!
no, i am not into lottery, haven't known anyone who does it aswell. but, cetainly the very idea of getting a huge sum out of the blue is certainly exciting and if we could use the fortune judiciously we can live a secured life, no doubt. But, i feel, most get carried away with the extravagance and the additional things, as you have said.
i would love to win a fortune though, just hope someone, like your son, buys me some tickets. lol..


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi mimpi! Thanks sweetie, Yes I am not a lucky one either, I just am very lucky to have my husband and family
and decent health, and GOOD friends:)

Oh yes I have also won once very little money but thats fun for me as that was my only one time so far and winning lottery is not very coomon in my circle of family and friends so I am the hero winning a $500 from a scratch once. You have some real good winner in your close circuit thats nice to see too. I dream I could ever win that much, I would not have to open this laptop again Oh GOD!!!


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi cmsk, Thanks! Yes I think I still would come to myLot because I love to talk to people, I just may not be here much (I'd be traveling!)...

i never buy the lottery,and in my mind,the chance of winning the money is very rare.people around me sometimes buy it,and most time,they don't even win one yuan,sometimes,they win two yuan.but they continue to buy it,maybe they believe they can win 5,000,000 one day.
sometimes when i am boring about how to earn more money,i would told myself that:maybe i can buy the lottery,maybe i can win.


myLot reputation of 100/100. Heavensent53 (2621)   ranked 31 out of 26,320 in life  1 year ago

Hi lisa, thanks:) I certainly am not encouraging people to try, I was just wondering if other people do.
