Sometime success is so obvious we overlook it. That's why when I saw a book called "There’s Always Room at the Top: 8 Secrets of the Super Successful" by lawyer Alan S. Becker, I realized it contained all the skills we need to win the lottery too.
Here's the quick list he sets out:
Matt Groening, creator of The Simpsons cartoon show, today revealed that the mythical town of Springfield is in fact in Oregon, USA.
The town is 160km away from Groening's hometown of Portland.
It is also home to the Oregon Megabucks, which has created over 230 millionaires. It is played every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday, and draws 6 numbers from a set of 48 (6/48).
The jackpot starts at $1 million and grows until won. The next jackpot is $2 million. Oregon also hosts the national Mega Millions and Powerball games.

The anonymous winners, who called themselves the "Three Amigos" collected the prize with their financial advisers. They elected to take the $158 million lump sum cash option, giving them $35 million each after taxes.
With Kanas and Maryland winners found, that leaves just the Illinois winner to collect their $218 million share of the March 30 drawing.

Maybe not the Anna that wrote to us.
A short while ago Anna left a testimonial on my blog. She was excited about a $6 win.
I was going to remove it. Anyone can win $6 with my system. It's not really in the league of many other Silver Lotto System wins totaling hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But I left it there for this reason...

After seeing the previous posts on masked winners, a reader had some ideas on whether you should hide away after your big win - or come straight out and front up to the world. They said:
"I'd tell everyone! What's the point of having a bunch of greenbacks if you can't brag about it. Why do you have to hide it, what's going to happen? No-one I know has ever been kidnapped because of their lottery winnings.
Go for it - you can't keep getting a lot of money secret anyhow. What happens when someone asks you how you got your house and how you can afford to take world trips and stuff. Me? The lottery? No, I saved it up from my job which you never see me go to!"

Waynes Hughes decided to make his £1.1 million (US$1.75M) National Lottery win memorable. So he had the date and numbers tattoed on his shoulder. Hope the tattooist didn't make a mistake!

Jacque looked at his wife and grinned. Around them in the small room at the lottery headquarters, officials bustled with the giant check they would present to the winners in the auditorium.
There was a lot of smiling and congratulating. Then one man put his head round the door and said, "we're ready."

A winner from one of the three states that shared the massive Mega Millions $656 million jackpot has come to claim the prize - anonymously.
The Kansas lottery chief Dennis Wilson said that the winner visited his offices accompanied by a lawyer and a financial officer. They made a request for privacy.
The winner elected to receive a lump sum payout of US$110.5 million from the $218 million third share.
Mr Wilson said the delay was because the winner had only just checked their tickets on Monday.
That leaves winners from Illinois and Maryland to go.

Rotten Tomatoes gave this film 35% rating - but there's a more important lesson here.
There's a theme to this delightful but cliched 2010 comedy, and it's one that the whole film is built around: Kevin tries to regain ownership of his winning $370M Mega Millions ticket. Took him a while.
TIP: Do what Kevin didn't. Get irrevocable ownership of your winning lottery ticket by signing it! Your signature makes any ticket a legal document and will save you a lot of pain if you lose it.

I saw film actor Terence Stamp at Heathrow - (PhotoMontage)
It was a couple years ago. I was standing around at Heathrow airport waiting in line when I saw him.
Unmistakably Terence Stamp, film actor. With his girl friend. And he was alone with her, sometimes looking around, sometimes standing on a weighing machine, sometimes affectionately holding his much smaller partner and canoodling.
He's tall, a few inches over 6 foot. And I was a little intimidated. I wanted to meet him, tell him that I had enjoyed his films, but I had doubts.

We've shown you an odd disguise before, when lottery winners try to conceal their identity after they win the lottery. But the Singaporeans are masters at variety.
Panda-man won US$90 million. Who cares what you look like with that sum in your bank!
Would you wear a disguise when you won a lottery jackpot?

Georgia woman Kathy Scruggs wanted a Mega Millions ticket, but the clerk gave her one for Powerball by mistake.
That error paid off in a big way. She accepted it along with a Mega Millions ticket, then won $25 Million in Powerball's draw.
When you win the lottery, YOU call the shots!
If you never heard about American etiquette writer Emily Post, you're not missing much. She told us how to hold your knife and fork correctly and what to wear to weddings.
This 22 year-old Washington Wizards basketballer blew $10,000 on last week's Mega Millions game.
The $7 million contracted player tweeted: “I’m about to drop 10,000 on the lottery and cross my fingers.” No news yet on his wins, if any.
Makes the average $10-$15 ticket look like small beans!
