A Lucky Meeting In The Supermarket: How A Lottery Queue Paid Off

This happened several years ago, but it bears repeating:

Let me tell you a little story:

I was waiting in my local lotto shop a while back, standing in line. I don’t normally wait in a queue anywhere, but of course a lotto line is different! This store was a kiosk in a large grocery supermarket chain - the one in the post below - and I go there every day or two just to get out of my home office--meet new people, you know.

Ahead of me in the line, a few people away, there was a women looking expectantly as her tickets were being checked through the machine.

WINNING CHANGES: Why I Walk Backwards Down The Stairs

Variety is the spice of life. But there's one thing you mustn't change, and I'll you about that in a minute...

To introduce variety I sometimes I walk down our stairs backwards. Our house has 28 steps spread over four different levels... it makes for an interesting trip.

Here's a picture (above) of the top level - complete with our curious cat! I hold on to the rail as I go - no use taking unnecessary risks! To enhance the sensation, I sometimes I close my eyes as well.

That's not all...

ODDITY: UK Bus Drivers Cause Chaos With £38 Million Euromillions Win

The drivers who won over £3 million each (US$4.8M) Via Guardian

When 12 bus drivers each won £3.1 million over the weekend, only a few turned up for work on Monday - throwing the roster into chaos.

They represented a quarter of the drivers employed at the bus depot at Corby, Northamptonshire in UK, and manager John Drew was faced with getting replacements fast.

Staff were goodnatured about the problem, one saying "We're all over the moon for them, they're the nicest group of people you could hope to meet."

STRATEGY: The Clever *Negative Number Effect* That Creates More Lottery Winners

When you get the right numbers, winning puts you on top of the world!

"If there's so many websites out there," complained my wife, exasperated, as she pecked at the iMac keyboard, "then how come I can't find what I'm looking for!"

The net has approximately 366 million websites, according to Netcraft.com in their 2011 survey. It's probably a LOT more now.

That's more information than anyone will ever be able to read in their lifetime. (Not that you'd want to read it all... there's a lot of rubbish out there!)

How many of those are lotto systems, do you think?

LUCKY DAY: Why You Should Act Now Today--Black Friday

The epic Friday 13th horror movie.

Today is Friday 13th. Many people won't be taking a ticket today because they're afraid of being unlucky.

Well, you and I know that to be a successful lottery winner you need to do what others fear.

So that makes it an excellent reason for you to buy a ticket if you have a Friday game like Mega Millions, Lotto MaxEuroMillions, Philippines MegaLotto or Connecticut Classic Lotto.

POLL: Would You Give Your Winnings To Charity - Or Keep It For Yourself?


Canadian couple Allen and Violet Large gave 98% of their $11.2 million winnings away to charity, friends and hospitals.

The couple, in their late 70's, kept $200,000 back for a rainy day... saying they had each other and that's all they needed.

If you won this amount, would you give away most of it? Or keep it all for rainy days?
