I just finished reading a book last night about the power of positive thinking, in it I learned that I can accomplish anything if I really believe in myself. So, today I went down to the store and I bought myself one of those Powerball tickets. Problem is, not sure what I'm going to do with all that money once I get it come Monday morning? Any suggestions? What would you do with it?

Yeah, Scoop, I might be able to help you with that "problem." :laughing7:

Actually, if you want to think positive, be positive that the Lottery itself makes more money than the citizens. That should tell you something.

Seriously, with some humor tossed in just for the fun of it, BAM! Suddenly you have 60 million. "What would you do in regards to chnaging your own life? What changes would you make?" Yes, I understand some of you have to ask your wives first! :laughing7:

After I made sure the kids and such were financially covered, I'd order me a custom made travel home with 4x4, fully rigged with all the gagets and able to sleep three or four. Then I'd hire me a couple of people (research types, etc.) that I could tolerate and I setup a fund to support a few years of chasing down a bunch of treasure legends. If we never found anything, so what. But just think of the adventure! Worth every penny to me!

I didn't go looking for him, but he turned up on my search and seemed worthy for your thread. So it's a gift to you.

So, today I went down to the store and I bought myself one of those Powerball tickets. Problem is, not sure what I'm going to do with all that money once I get it come Monday morning? Any suggestions? What would you do with it?

One question for you, What state do you live in? Reason I am asking is usually the most winners for the powerball are either from Ohio, MO, IL, IN Now according to the record Indiana has had the most powerball winners go figure.

So with that said. If you do not live in Indiana you might want to move there and buy you another ticket.

Sometimes it makes me think that the powerball game is rigged because out of all the states playing isn't it just to coincidental that the 4 states listed above out of what about 14-15 states who participate always has most of the winnders from those 4 states and many states not at all? Think about all the other states to that never has had any powerball winner. I bet my odds that the next person who wins the powerball will be from Ohio. I would even bet $1.00 to anyone who disbelieves me.

I got the book as well and I am reading but I am still on my 3rd chapter.

Either way, good luck and I hope ya win!
