If I had won it, I would have my cousin (who's a financial planner) to help be invest it.    Posted:   Nov 29, 2012 - 6:48 PM     By:   Christopher Kinsinger   (Member) Maybe I need to start a business... I'll call it, um, POWERBALL HELPER. Any Californians who want Powerball tickets set up an account with me. I buy them the tickets and ship them by overnight mail. However, if you win, you are contractually bound to split the cash with you-know-who!    Posted:   Nov 29, 2012 - 6:51 PM     By:   Adam.   (Member) I'm disappointed that they don't have the Powerball in California, because somebody had just won the Mega Millions $49 million jackpot. If I had won it, I would have my cousin (who's a financial planner) to help be invest it. Not to worry. I just heard on the news that the powers-that-be in Ca. voted to have Powerball in that state. Beginning in April if I heard correctly.    Posted:   Apr 9, 2013 - 1:37 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) I'm disappointed that they don't have the Powerball in California, because somebody had just won the Mega Millions $49 million jackpot.

Beginning in April if I heard correctly. It's heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerre!!!! After I win, I'll be hiring an actor to play me on this message board. Maybe James Franco?    Posted:   Apr 9, 2013 - 2:01 PM     By:   Christopher Kinsinger   (Member) Oh well...my "POWERBALL HELPER" business idea was just shot down. But I'll keep on buyin' my ticket twice a week, and when I win, Y'ALL ARE INVITED TO MY PLACE FOR THE PARTY OF YOUR LIFE! By the way David...James Franco may not be as good looking as Guy Madison, but I happen to think he's really cool.    Posted:   Apr 11, 2013 - 5:41 AM     By:   jackfu   (Member) By God, can you imagine if any of those numbers had won??? It was indeed a nice gesture by Christopher. And had it been me and a ticket won, it likely would have gone like this: "Sorry David, your ticket didn't win, but mine did!" Then, upon getting home: "Pack your bags, honey, I just won the lottery!" "Really? For what kind of weather should I pack?" "Doesn't matter, long as you're outta here by midnight." Rimshot? Anyone?    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 2:41 PM     By:   filmusicnow   (Member) I just played the Powerball when they initiated it in California. I played, and no results!! I want to win it so I can get my cousin, who's a financial planner, to help me invest it.    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 2:48 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) By the way David...James Franco may not be as good looking as Guy Madison, but I happen to think he's really cool. Personally, Christopher, if both of them were standing in front of me, grinning...... I'd be torn.    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 2:49 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) I bought a ticket. Two bucks? For a measly $40 million in return?? I'm glad I don't do this sort of spending very often!    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 2:51 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) By God, can you imagine if any of those numbers had won???

Good one, Jack!    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 5:47 PM     By:   Adm Naismith   (Member) I won $4 on Wed in CA's first time out.    Posted:   Apr 12, 2013 - 8:03 PM     By:   filmusicnow   (Member) I won $4 on Wed in CA's first time out. Oh well, at least you can buy it for a ticket for two more rows of numbers.    Posted:   Apr 13, 2013 - 11:19 AM     By:   Dyfrynt   (Member) To the OP. These kinds of articles come up all the time. It is almost completely urban legend. It is a balm to the rest of us who are still slaving away to find out that those big lotto winners aren't really any happier after all. What little actual fact gathering I have found on this topic is this - if you are generally a happy person before you strike it rich, you will generally be a happy person after you strike it rich. If you are a depressed, angry person before, you will be a rich depressed, angry person after the win. This makes a great deal of sense to me.    Posted:   Apr 13, 2013 - 11:27 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) If you are a depressed, angry person before, you will be a rich depressed, angry person after the win. And I'd rather be a rich depressed, angry person than a poor depressed, angry person.    Posted:   Apr 15, 2013 - 9:38 AM     By:   jackfu   (Member) By God, can you imagine if any of those numbers had won???

Good one, Jack! Thank you! But seriously folks...    Posted:   Apr 15, 2013 - 9:48 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) Well I have two less dollars in my pocket and nothing to show for it!    Posted:   May 20, 2013 - 1:23 PM     By:   Sir David of Garland   (Member) Somebody in Florida is $600 million richer, the biggest winner yet. I wonder if there will be drama around the ticket. Remains to be seen! http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2013/05/winning_powerball_ticket_sold_2.html    Posted:   May 20, 2013 - 2:05 PM     By:   Francis   (Member) I saw clips of people standing in line and even facing heavy traffic to get a ticket. If anyone on this board won, please look up all the unreleased score request threads and re-recording candidates.    Posted:   May 20, 2013 - 2:23 PM     By:   filmusicnow   (Member) I live in Union City and not one of the winning numbers on my ticket showed up!!! And somebody from Florida wins it? Why couldn't it have been somebody in (Northern) California? Only one person in San Jose won the $1,000,000 (which you win if you get five numbers)!!! Not bad, but more work needs to be done!!!    Posted:   May 20, 2013 - 2:24 PM     By:   filmusicnow   (Member) If you are a depressed, angry person before, you will be a rich depressed, angry person after the win.
