Do you actually know anybody who has won the lottery?

I came close...hitting 4 out of 6 numbers.


Although optimism is a good thing I feel the need to point out that getting 4 out of 6 numbers is not even remotely "close" to winning the lottery (jackpot).

The chances of getting 4 numbers is roughly 1,000 to 1 and the jackpot is roughly 14 MILLION to 1

So you where far closer to getting 0 numbers than you where all 6

Niece that won $2000 and she blew it on drugs. Still lives with her mom or wherever she sleeps that night, both a complete wreck.

I do, my Grandmother (by marriage, wasn't too close) won the lottery years ago who has recently passed to cancer. Unfortunately for me she didn't leave me anything of value.

I never met or heard of anybody winning millions in the lottery aside from on the news and in the media. Have any of you met or known either directly or indirectly someone who has gotten millions of dollars by winning the lottery?

Is it possible the "winners" we see in the media are actors?

My theory is that the lottery is fabricated to give people at the bottom false hope, and to keep them addicted to this false sense of hope by spending their little bit of money to push them further in to debt.

I, myself, am an occasional lotto player and can relate to the thrill of maybe winning big, so this is why I ask. Can anybody here confirm they know a winner?

This is, by far, my most insane conspiracy, so I take no offense in your ripping me a new one, but I just like to explore these notions and would love to have this one shot down. Thoughts? Reactions?



An 18 year old lad in my town won £1m a few years ago. He gave half to his sister, bought a house, a car, wrote off the car, bought another car, spent the rest on drugs and sold the house.

I know of two people that won.


The first person I knew won a million dollar . I think I was more excited then they were because they were already loaded. It was a bit of a downer.

The second person that I know that won got like 2 million. Great person and hard worker and only been in this country for a few years. Worked as a dishwashe. Very excited and was not stupid with his finances. purchased a couple homes Paid for his kids education and I believe went back to working as a dishwasher. I think he didn't know what to do without work or it still hadn't sunk in?
