You know its' a serious lotto when you don't have enough space to advertise the actual amount. I don't know about you guys, but I think the lotto commission should advise everyone to place or write on a piece of paper the actual amount to be won. I feel that something should be placed either below the lighted board, on the counter or both. With the way people are sue happy nowadays, I think it would be wise to advertise the actual amount in the morning and as updates are sent out. Well that's my quick opinionated rant for today, what do you guys think?

@Plethos I hope too, it seems that all those who win too much money waste the money and end their life in a bad way.

I think there should be a limit to the amount that can be won.

it is crazy when an individual lucky game player can win more money than some nations have in their entire economic budgets
