Who are you kidding...you’d hit it.
I want to see her picture. It is important to know what my future wife looks like.
Wonderful. She’ll have $590 million to spend for every year she has left.
< just kidding folks >
I need to meet her handsome son :)
” This thread is useless without pictures.”
Of the 370 million ?
The old ABC Wide World of Sports them with words “the agony of defeat” by Jim Mckay come to mind of the person who let her cut.
“Shell burn thru the cash in a few years living the fast life...”
I hope so. And start gifting the max to her kids and loved ones. And I hope she has a bunch of charities that she can give to. And I hope she has many years to enjoy it all. If not, the gov’t is going to take half when she dies anyway.
Ms. McKinsie (or whatever it’s spelled liked) I just want you to know “I YUB YOU!!!” I’ll spend it frugally.
In all candor, it must piss her off to win a third of a billion at 84 : )
I just found out I’m her son.
First - I’ll admit it - I’m a bit jealous. Of course I never play the lottery so I guess I can’t complain!
But - the word “lucrative” doesn’t seem to be the right term for somebody winning a game of chance. I always viewed it in terms of work and investments. Of course I suppose the $1 ticket can be viewed as an “investment”, so I guess it is a “profit”.
“Lucrative: producing a profit; profitable; remunerative”
Lord knows the IRS views it as a profit!
$590 million prize, huh?
That’s enough for eight IRS dance parties and $190 million left over for a Paris vacation for Moochelle.
See post #12.........
I have 15,000,000.00 (fifteen million) U.S. Dollars and I want you to assist me in distributing the money to charity organizations.
I agree to reward you with part of the money for your assistance, kindness and participation in this Godly project.
This mail might come to you as a surprise and the temptation to ignore it as unserious could come into your mind but please consider it a divine wish and accept it with a deep sense of humility.
I am Mr Peter Attah and I am a 55 years old man. I am a South African living in the Garden City of Port Harcourt - Nigeria.
I was the President/CEO of TOMOBA OIL LIMITED - an oil servicing comapny in Port Harcourt. I was also married with two children.
My wife and two children died in a car accident six years ago. Before this happened my business and concern for making money was all I was living for and I never really cared about other people.
But since the loss of my family, I have found a new desire to assist the helpless. I have been helping orphans in orphanages/motherless homes.
I have donated some money to orphans in Sudan, Ethiopia, Cameroon,Spain,Austria,Germany and some Asian countries.
I WILL ONLY NEED YOUR BANK ACCOUNT INFORMATION AND SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER.....
...another lottery ticket buyer was very kind enough to let me go ahead of her.

That isn’t like the other person would have gotten the ticket if they were a quick pick which we don’t know. It is a millisecond transaction so timing would have had to been exactly the same for those numbers to have shown up had the other person kept their place in line.
It will be a life-altering experience for the winner and, not necessarily, a happy one.
Well, it’s better than never winning it at all I guess.
LOL
It is important to know what my future wife looks like.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We know you better than that. It’s not important al all. All that is important is that she has a pulse.
Then you can take care of the rest.
(lol)
Agreed. It’s not like the old worn out TV plot of a store’s millionth customer where the person somehow gets shafted by not being the next in line due to various circumstances for the prize. I think it did happen once in real life.
