Has anyone on here ever won the Lottery? - Page 2

I feel I have the courage to win the lottery and deal with the corrupting, evil, beautiful millions of dollars.

Never won, but I told a bunch of strippers that I won millions!

I got 5 out of 6 once in the California super lotto. I remember I couldn't sleep because the week before 5/6 paid $300k, with my luck the payout the next morning was $2k. But that night I was dreaming of a viper and a down payment for a house. Rude awakening but thankful.

One of my friends won 2 million in the Ohio Lottery, he took my advice and invested all of it and is currently living off the $30,000 per month dividend from his investment. He was 33 when he won and both he and his wife retired about 6 months after winning. It wasn't the mega million winnings that we hear about, but it was enough to allow him to retire at 33 years of age.

I won a raffle in 3rd grade when i was a safety patrol crossing guard. Got to ride in a single prop airplane around town with my grandpa.....better than a million!

After watching that show "How the Lottery changed my Life"I think you are required to have an IQ below 80 and believe that having 3 million in the bank allows you to buy a jet and several exotic cars along with a 2 million dollar mansion,never a thought about paying the taxes or upkeep for the toys

I have a friend who won a million on a scratch ticket a number of years ago. Ran into him at the bar that night and I can tell ya, he was generous with the drinks. He took 3 months leave from work and bought a house on a small acreage for his young family. Invested a good chunk of it and returned to work. I lost touch with him, but heard through mutual friends that he had turned into an alcoholic. We were in our early 20's at the time.

Most I've won is $400 at the casino....wooohooo!

I won $120+ on two ocassions when I lived in TX. In WA 4 numbers only gets you $30 or so. Never hit 5 or 6 numbers though. Still tryin! Oh, that reminds me I need to get some tickets.

FlashBurntFace · 08-15-2014, 08:33 PM

I saw a few people in the "ZL1 owner age and profession" threads had won big in a lottery. I assume they won big due to a response like "2013 zl1, 27, lottery winner". Must be nice!
