Default Re: 504 Million in Lottery Jackpots, who's in?

The largest Powerball jackpot was 1.6 Billion dollars. If memory serves it was won by 3 people. Now that is a prize.

As for the piddly 200+ million bux you have to take the full prize over 30 years and pay your Uncle his share every year. If you take the cash, you still pay and you end up with less than 50% of the payout. Of course if you live in a no income tax state, your take is a few percentage points higher.

I have an idea on how everyone can win every time. Simply send me the $3 and I will guarantee you become a winner. I'll even send you a certificate stating that to be the truth, whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Which would you rather have: My certificate of you being a winner or a losing lottery ticket?

Good luck to all who venture this week. I'm waiting till next week when both jackpots will be worth playing. And, yes, I did give myself a certificate...
