winning

Why do I feel sad about not winning the powerball ? Like I know there’s a very low chance but I just feel sad it was not me who won . If you are in this group and you won it , if you could just send me like 1M that would be great, lol 😂 .

I would like to win the lottery and do alot of things. I think most of all its just the financial fredom it will bring. I dont really want more things but actual time. I could help those in need as well. Be on vacation for a while too 🏝

Yeah I'm there with you. Its because you feel like if you did win, you could do so many things. Maybe even fix somethings in your life.

I know that's how I feel. But congratulations to that single winner. Hopefully they get a good team together and don't blow all their money.

yea very true, not sure how you can blow all that money but yea there so much good I would want to do if I won .

ooh believe me there are ways to lose it all. There are tons of stories of lotto winners who threw it all away. Some it’s because they didn’t have a proper Financial team in place. So they invest stand by restaurants and don’t realize that changes their income and they have to pay income tax on that and they don’t cause I figure well I won the lottery so I don’t have to pay taxes anymore cause they already took it. But they don’t realize they started buying land and businesses that changes your income now. And you have to pay tax on this new income you’re getting. Other folks they take care of literally their entire family second cousins third cousins moms cousins etc. Families can get spoiled. They start demanding things like a new car every year and multiple homes. Sometimes they even kill the person who won thinking they will get their winnings.

That’s why if I win, I ain’t telling nobody. I’ll do good works with it. But I’ll set up a foundation and trust fund and that’ll do it. I don’t want my name out there. Because even when you win and people find out you won, you kind of become a celebrity and people will write to you about all the horrible stuff they been through and if you can help them out. Which can get to you mentally. Because yeah you would love to help everyone. But you also know some people won’t tell the truth about their situation. You have to be cautious with your money.

yeah but if you won you’d have to hide because all these strangers are now asking for money. At least you are claiming to be a relative!
