    The thing though about the lottery.

    Say the prize money for the lottery is 5 Million dollars.

    The lottery can be paid off in 2 ways.

    You can take your money now, but you only get a half of what the prize money was.


    Or #2 you can get the prize money over a time of 20 years.

    As they say, if money was like horses then beggars would ride.

    Winning the lottery can be a big disadvantage.

    As I said in the last thread:

    Honestly speaking, i'll donate 3 million to Charity and for 1 million I would buy clothings for poor and povetry cursed people. Along with it I would buy food and other neccesary living items which are a big need for them. For rest 1 million I would buy some happiness for my parents and whatever please' or prouds them.

    I'd make a treasure map and bury it somewhere to make it a great adventure. Then I'd eat a hotdog.

    Oof?
    Put it ALL in the bank and live off the savings till im 25. Then take it all out, buy the biggest F**ing house and car, then put the rest into a business and try to earn mooore money. Then when I die, 95% goes to family and 5% goes to charity. (5% of a billion billion billion >_> <_< >_>_>)
