$2,000,000,000 for $2.

Your right. I just saw the update, but still I’m going to a least get one ticket a day until the drawing. As long as your in the draw. You have a chance. Sure a lousy chance, but still a chance.

 

Still worth a case of beer to me, maybe a pizza >_> with it

I won't go to car payment levels

 

With Thanksgiving around the corner and winter too. Even Christmas. I can see donating coats, food or toys for kids this holiday. Normally I live from paycheck to paycheck and can’t really help much. Also now that I think about it that much money I definitely rather give it to people in need, than give it to taxes.

 

Most lottery's help with charities too... Just gonna point that out

 

Some say the lottery is a like a tax. I look at the lottery like insurance, you insure that you will have a chance at that jackpot. You can spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to buy life/home/car/etc insurance, but you can only hope that that money is never seen again because getting a payout meant your life just sucked hard. Whereas with a lottery, you can buy in with a couple of bucks and pleasant dreams, and if you do get a payout, it would be the best day of your life.

 

Beware of the family if you're filthy rich.

 

I’m a little worried about that too. I’m also worried about kidnapping. Worried about money breaking up my relationships. Than again let’s worry about that when I actually win.

 

I thought about it, if you set it up as a corporation people couldn't go straight after you, or set it in trust.
I'd sign it and date it though right away and photo copy it. Maybe get a bank loan to go away for a while.
God knows your gonna be found out as soon as the number comes out, the place where it's sold gets a cut, they have cameras, and Bam your on the news

 

I saw this old advice being linked at another forum:
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/...a_656_million_dollar_lottery_what_do/chba4bf/

 

Yeah. That’s the one thing I hate. I don’t want people knowing about my business.

 

Just share a bit of it to us when you win man!

 

Thanks for sharing, I read it good tips

*Softly but firmly* No.

I'm sorry but the number you have dialed is disconnected, please check the number and try again.

 

I was wondering how to let them down gently. I’ll go with your answers. But seriously. If I’m not giving anything to my distant family. Why would I give it to strangers? I’m just saying I like you guys, but we’re not childhood long lost friends or anything. I’m not sure what I would use it for. Besides let’s worry about that if I ever win.

 

You dont need money to lose weight man, take it from someone who lost 120 pounds, no gym no nothing, it just takes willpower to do it. Nothing worth having is easy bro. If it took you 2+ years to put on the weight it wont come off in a month, it just takes time and effort

 

I agree. You are absolutely right. The deal with the fitness trainer. Is mostly for encouragement and the freedom to focus on my goals. To tell you the truth I’m not that over weight. I’m 6 foot 1 inch tall and my ideal weight is roughly 215lbs. My weight right now is 240lbs. So it’s only 25lbs difference. I just want the help finding the drive and a routine that will work for me from an experienced person.

 

Ahh okay, that makes sense. I lost all my weight by changing my diet, no excercise until i hit my goal weight and was "skinny fat", then the gym religiously to build muscle in upper body. If your interested man check out the keto subreddit, they kept me going and were very helpful.

 

I’ll try to check out that keto thing. Thanks.

 

Watch Black Mirror that will calm you down
