A friend of mine won $50,000!!!

So, she went to a convienence store with her brother (who amazingly was out of jail long enough to go to a store with her), and she wanted a lotto ticket. She's 18, so she could have bought one herself, but didn't have the money. He gave her 5 bucks, and she bought a ticket. She didn't know what the pictures on it meant, and she showed it to him. Next thing you know, she's getting a check from the Washington State Lottory for 50 THOUSAND DOLLARS!!!

Unfortunately, she's not giving me any. She's not even doing anything crazy with it. She put it in the bank for some trust fund savings thingy or something.

Wow, how generous. That's awesome for her though.

I've never won anything in lotto and I probably won't buy a ticket again. The mathmetical chances of winning loto is only just above zero. How many win more in their lifetimes then if they put that money away each week in a saving account? Not many I think......

That's pretty cool, H-D, but I'm with hide, I don't even play the thing anymore. I used to and I once won $77 by getting four of six numbers or something.

if you play $10 each week you could have saved $520 in one year.....times that by say 40 years and unless you win division one in your lifetime you won't win more then you play.
