Apparently tonight's UK lottery has a jackpot of £50million! I would never waste my money on lottery tickets.

I have a lottery subscription in the UK and I don't feel I'm wasting my money as I can see evidence of some of the Good Causes it goes to in my local area.

I am in two office pools.... Plus I think hubby and I will buy $10 worth of tickets today.... Heck.. I've lost more money in the bottom of my purse.. and we have a chance to dream for a day.... make plans.... etc... $10 is a cheap price to pay for that.

 

[Yaya]

Since everyone has one, maybe I should buy two

We don't need lottery cash as we are reasonably comfortable providing I don't go mad with our money.

Just heard the Jackpot could top $1 BILLION..... I simply cannot fathom that kind of money.

I only buy one ticket each time. I'd have quit playing a long time ago except that I've been playing the same six numbers since the lottery began. I'd probably jump off the Empire State Building if I stopped playing and my number came up.

It's now up to $900M. I just got back from the store; kind of a long line but not too bad. I got tickets for tonight and also the next drawing (Wednesday) just in case it gets really crazy. I hope some people hit tonight.

I think I have better odds of marrying Darius Rucker, I'll pass and buy a bubble tea. Paws crossed for the rest of you though.

Bluecheese, if you don't need it and you win it, will you please give it to me?

Regarding remaining anonymous, I found this:

Currently six states — Delaware, Kansas, Maryland, North Dakota, Ohio and South Carolina — allow lottery winners to remain anonymous. And four more — Colorado, Connecticut, Vermont and Massachusetts — allow anonymity if the winners claim their winnings through a trust.

So in the other 40 states you have to be public about it. I always thought going on TV to claim lottery is CRAZY.

I agree. You know your name will be in every paper lol. I didn't realize it was required to be identified. Oh well..might as well enjoy the 5 minutes of fame then tell the chauffeur to drive you home..in the other direction.

I will never win it as I don't participate in the lottery.
