The odds of winning Powerball are posted here. Those odds are fairly astronomical. :freaky: I think they are on the back of the ticket slips you fill out to buy tickets too. |
So it is true Joe

You seriously believe "NOT PLAYING seems a hell of alot less savvy when ya think about it." is true. You weren't joking?
Start sending me dollar bills. After you send me 100 million of them I'll send 20 million of them back to you. |

I don't know how to respond. I am genuinely stunned to learn that somebody who thinks the lottery is a good investment is also able to own and operate a computer.
So, just to get this straight, you honestly think spending money on a 1/150M chance to win ~$20M is a smart thing to do? |

Now that I have JoePole squirmin in the grip o reason, I'll deliver the "coup de grace" to his argument and bring the debate to a timely conclusion! (WARNING:THE WEAK OF STOMACH AND FAINT OF HEART ARE CAUTIONED TO AVERT THEIR GAZE)
If memory serves, Joe, werent you one of the winners in the SBLive Ipod Drawing? Now granted, it didnt cost you anything to enter, and the whole thing was obviously done on a much smaller scale than a state lottery, but there were still enough entrants in the drawing to make the odds of winning suffiently remote enough to render the whole deal an exercise in pure luck, right? And yet, Lo and Behold, YOU WON! Hell, even if it had cost you $1.00 to enter, you still would've come out way ahead, right? Not to mention that your own MOTHER has won more than half a million bucks at a casino, but you think spending a buck or two on a lottery ticket is foolish? Talk about lookin a "gift horse" in the ass! You might want to reconsider...from where Im standin, your luck aint half bad...which is fortunate for you, since you seem to have been shortchanged upstairs. If ya cant be smart, good lookin, or rich, you'd damn sure better be LUCKY. One out of four aint bad, right Joe? Oops...looks like Joe just got chopped off at the ankles by the "Sword O Logic", wielded by Your's Truly...and "dour pragmatism" wont stop the bleeding! Medic...MEDIC!:eek: |
Joe your showing your age
You are dealing with a very wise person that has a good education in life. You are young with a new family and even though you think you got it nailed you tend to talk in circles and disagree with yourself. Do not worry the years will teach you about life and so will your beautiful children when they come of age. There is more to life than higher math :rolleyes:
