I have just about every type of seizure that someone would have looked at me before I was diagnosed and said "Even if you have epilepsy, you won't have to worry about those seizures."

So I was thinking, "Hey with those odds, I must be very lucky." I bought $10 worth of lottery tickets, and only won $5.

First I couldn't figure out why the odds were working against me all of the sudden but then I realized - People consider it a good thing to win the money, and bad thing to get all the ubersensitive rare seizures.

So for the next month, concentrate on how money is a really bad thing to have and how horrible it is to win the lottery.

Then I'll go out and buy a ticket with a million dollar prize. I'll be guaranteed to win just so long as everyone thinks the lottery as a bad thing. Get started on those bad thoughts right away
 
I may invest in drug companies. They make the high profit! Seriously, you reminded me to get that lottery ticket.
 
Hey we've been great friends - *ahem*,
and about the money you had borrowed
from me ... if I can remember ...

:ponder:

KIDDING!

I rarely ever play those things, and when I
do, I only profit maybe 2 bucks to 3.50.

:(

Well, having spent $1 for one ticket, not bad,
but not enough to buy a gallon of milk!

:?

I wonder what it would be like if you won
12 Million Dollars? What would you do with it?
 
Oh what the heck, I'll make a poll just for fun!
 
If you won a major Lottery ... (POLL)

Here's the poll ....

I would hire a chauffer to drive me anywhere I wanted to go at any time. :woot:

I would be dropped off at the door, or accompanied into the store by the chauffer, depending on my wishes at the time.

And I would hire in-home help so that I could adopt a child labled "unadoptable." (i.e. a little girl with a disability). :)
I have the love and time, but I don't have the resources right now.

Ahhh, to dream.... it's what makes life tolerable some days. :agree:

I keep telling my hubby that we'll win the lotto and we'll take home 9.6mill. Don't know why that is the amount but it is.

I'll tell ya the first thing I'd do though----my younger sister had a frontal lobe menigioma removed this summer. She has no insurance. I'd pay off the hospital bills for sure for her. The poor kid.
 
HA! IN YOUR COLLECTIVE FACE ! I WON THE LOTTERY TODAY !!!! Oh wait , there's an asterisk here ....... it says "total amount of 30 rupees (1$) .......will be paid in 300 installments ...... CONDITIONS APPLY !!!! #$&^#%$&^% DAMN IT ! :)

I would invest in cars that would drive themselves with environmentally friendly engines, or start a major push in public transportation to provide a real friendly method of transportation.
 
I dunno if I cheated, but I ticked two boxes :

I'd share it with family and friends, and charities of choice....

...plus, I'd move ! (what out Brain - Florida seems a good choice to me)
