One of my co-workers won 20 million. He did the same job as me. He finished his hitch offshore then quit.
What’s his name and what company did he work for offshore?

Seems like California has been winning all the billion dollar jackpots. I smell some bull shite going on.
Maybe it would be a good idea for southern states to dump the lottery scheme. The biggest pile of bullshite I smell from the whole affair is that only states can run lotteries and gambling in this form. Private entities such as casinos or businesses are prohibited from creating a lottery. (Wonder why that is?)

The lottery isn’t real. It’s a CIA op to get black ops funding off the books.

Drive to the state line in any direction and buy a ticket when you cross over.

$2.00? You can hardly get a drink from a vending machine for $2. My last paycheck was $900 lighter due to federal tax. I'll take a chance on $2.00 two or three times a year.

There have been 17 Powerball jackpot tickets sold in Louisiana. I think we're tied with Florida for seventh most out of all the states that offer it.

I personally know someone that won in Jacksonville, FL.

A Winning ticket was sold in Eunice in 2017.

Can't do that. He's the only person I've ever heard of winning the damn lottery. So, pretty easy to narrow down if you knew him.

Someone won a Billion $ powerball down the street from me in Florida about a year ago
Posted on 12/28/24 at 12:03 pm to Tiger in NY
I know it was at the Publix right by you but I think they were visiting from New Jersey and purchased the ticket on vacation or something like that

Your starting to notice the trend. There may be no conspiracies but it does seem strangely coincidental.
