The other lottery thread got me to thinking of starting my own lottery.

Here's the deal:

I pay HIGHER percentages than ANY Government lottery.
I pay IMMEDIATELY.
I pay schools more than ANY government lottery.

Here's how it works:

You give me $1 - I give you $0.28 back immediately and immediately send the school system $0.28

EVERYBODY WINS!

Far better system than ANY now being pushed on reluctant taxpayers.

Ever been around someone with a PLAN to work and make themselves wealthy?

The lottery is a mean thing government does to get money back from unintelligent folks who fall for it.

I read somewhere that, statistically, you've more chance of catching aids & being struck by lightning on the same day, than winning the euromillions lottery.

The Lottery is a voluntary tax on stupidity.

Ha, buddy says we already won the $3 million lottery. Just got to show up at work every day to collect.

From that perspective, we've made some interesting financial decisions.

I won about $24,000 from the Georgia lottery!

I maintained above a B average through college and they payed for my education.

Other than that, I never really play the lottery.

I consider it $1 a week to be able to play the "what if" dream. I dont really think I will ever win, but its fun to dream. People blow a whole lot more than that on far stupider things.

I play the "What If Game" this way; Honey, What if we found a lotto ticket someone threw down and it was a winner?

Never bought a lottery ticket.

I don't even like to put nickels in slots.

The most Vegas has ever gotten from me was the $20 I gave my wife. When it was gone, it was gone.


Always had the kind of luck whereby when something blows up, it's always with the handle to it in my hand. Figured that it'd be the same with a lottery ticket.

Guaranteed loser.

Or I'd win and immediately catch aids and get struck by lightning in the same day.
