Ever win the lottery?

I won the hot wife lottery.

When Powerball (I think) got up to 250 million, a bunch of us at work went together and got tickets. We had around 500 tickets total.

We obviously didn't win

Like always...

I'm still salty by the way

There's plenty on the board.

And a shit ton of real witnesses here as well.

I bought a lottery ticket in Europe.

I didn't but I definitely know what winners go thru a bit...

I tell a friend that I won a lottery ( ok, it is not money it's just some raffle thing).  Before I can clarify, she stops me in mid sentence and says "You have got to give $5000 ! "    Wow note to self , if I ever win, make it secret and no way show your face on camera and put it in a trust.

Was that actually yours or did you find that pic on the interwebz?

I was born healthy in the U.S. to parents who could pay to put me through college & grad school. If I didn't use up my lifetime allotment of good luck right there, I'm pretty damn close.

I've tossed in a buck or two when folks in my office have pooled money for tickets - I do it both because it's a social thing, and because it's worth a dollar to fantasize about what I'd do if the numbers came up. Pretty much the same reason I look at ads for bikes I can't afford.

On the other hand, my father has a doctorate in nuclear chemistry and is one of the tiny fraction of numerically smart people I have ever met who can actually conceptualize the idea of a one-in-seventy-five-million chance of winning, and he buys a couple of tickets a month, so what do I know?

That's cool I wish I could do that. I have a very, very IZ_ concept of what 75 million is.

actually very simple
1st picture one thing
now picture that same thing 74 million 999 thousand 999 times more
wasn't that easy? 

[MendoDave]

What!? I kind of like how it was changed to IZ. Change it back!

[scduc]

 My friend's father in-law won 2million on nickle slots. He also won 10k on a different trip. Not the lottery, but still pretty cool.

[MendoDave]

It's not changing back. Lethe did you change it?

[rgramjet]

What are the odds of winning if you don't buy a ticket?  I like a real challenge.....

[cokey]

Triple
