Well, one of life's questions is answered without a doubt- I would purchase pretty much every airhead, some non-bmw , I came across!

I have never won the lottery. I understand that one can increase the chances of winning a tiny bit by buying a ticket. One homeless guy found a current ticket and won some $100 k a few years ago. Now that I know that it is possible to win without risk, I am in the game.

I have done a tremendous amount of speculating and musing about what I will do with my winnings when I win the lottery. Someday, perhaps I will actually breakdown and buy a ticket, but I haven't found that necessary yet. The speculating and musing seems to be the best part, and I haven't yet found a ticket to be a necessary ingredient in that practice.

I can attest that buying a ticket is not the magic solution.

With so many different lotteries out there, I'm having a hard time deciding which one I should not participate in.

Really this isn't so much about a lottery,per se, but the fact that I am now perusing old Harley & Indians for sale in addition to BMWs. Hondas and Yamahas from the 70's are looking good too!

I now understand how some of these vast collections came about!

The only way I can think to finance it would be a wining ticket; alas, I've only lost on the rare occasions I've purchased one...

But forget the old saw about " Well , I'll buy a new car, pay off my mortgage and go to work like everyday..."

I would get me a warehouse (w/ living space like I had once upon a time) and fill it!

When the take is in the hundreds of millions, Linda will buy one ticket. Her explanation is that she can dream for only a buck. MS, I use your system.

I have a few goals in life.
1. Never buy a lottery ticket.
2. Never join a union.
3. Never get married. Blew that one
4. Get a pilots license. Did it.

Now comes a long list of things that worked for me.

Is warehouse a misprint?

Nor will doing so significantly change your odds of winning.

Damn math minor ruins all my fun.

If you don't buy a ticket the odds are 0, if you do they are what, 200 million to 1 or something? You have a better chance of getting hit by a meteor.

Nonetheless we hear reports from time to time of people winning the jackpot multiple times. Like the recent guy who bought 6 tickets, all with the same number, all winners. A friend of mine's Mom won a couple times. How do they do that? Psychic abilities? Time traveling?

Winning the lottery is my new retirement plan since my 401K went bust in '08.
