NOW there is an ANSWER for people wanting to play Powerball and the Florida lottery. It's YOUR-LOTTO-EXPRESS!

YOUR-LOTTO-EXPRESS does NOT SELL TICKETS! We are a delivery service! You sign up for our service, and place your order. We go out and buy your tickets for you. All tickets will be delivered initially via scan/email. You will receive an actual photo scan of your ticket/s NOT JUST AN EMAIL WITH NUMBERS. You don't even have to live in Florida to play, which is great if you live in a state without any state lottery or Powerball.

DELIVERY TIME:

YOUR-LOTTO-EXPRESS guarantees delivery of all tickets to you at least one hour before the drawing in question is to take place. In most cases you will have your tickets well before the drawing (usually a day or two ahead). The only exception to this guarantee is new members who subscribe within 24 hours of a drawing in which they wish to participate.

Remember, we are a 24 hour in advance service. This means that the earliest drawing you can participate in must take place at least 24 hours after you sign up. You cannot sign up an hour before a drawing and expect to play in the drawing via this service.

WHERE ARE MY ACTUAL TICKETS? IS ALL I GET A SCAN?
Your tickets are 100% safe and 100% yours ! We own no tickets. We just deliver them for you. We have no legal right to your property. Just as a Fed Ex or UPS courier has no right to the contents of your packages, we have no ownership rights of any kind to your package, or in this case, tickets. All tickets are housed in a fire proof vault, in an envelope with your name on it. Contact us if you want your non-winning tickets sent to you.

We can redeem your winning ticket and send you a postal money order for your winnings.

If you win a larger prize, you will probably want the thrill of cashing that ticket in personally. People who win smaller prizes of under $500, especially those who who live outside Florida, usually prefer getting a postal money order. But, it is always your call! These are YOUR TICKETS- YOU tell us what to do! NOTE: All plans allow you to choose your numbers OR do a "Quick Pick" except for the GROUPER plans.

Secret Tip To Choose This Week's Numbers

2009-01-18T10:20:00.000-08:00

I'm going to show you a little-known method to improve your winning odds.

You might have noticed your game last week had some peculiar winning number patterns.

This clever method predicts the skewed patterns, and adjusts for them to give you up to 99% winning odds.

So how can you be more selective in choosing when to play?

The solution is a little complicated, but not impossible.

Here's the steps:

1. Check out the results of the last game in your area. Go back to the winning numbers on the last day of play.

2. If your game has unusual number combinations, like this example:

- Three consecutive numbers together like 3, 4, 5, or 25, 26, 27.
Or
- Numbers concentrated together at one end of the range, like 33, 35, 36, 38 or 2, 4, 5, 7, 8 (not those numbers you understand - just a pattern like that)...

3.... then make sure you play the very NEXT game.

Your winning chances will improve because it's unlikely these unusual number pattern sets will appear again in the very NEXT game.

The Silver Lotto PRO System works because it removes these 'bad' number patterns in a very sophisticated way. You can duplicate it by following this el cheapo method.

By watching out for the strange number patterns like the ones above and playing the NEXT game, you'll improve your winning chances considerably.

LOTTO DAILY - US Powerball Changes

2008-12-30T11:56:00.001-08:00

On January 4, 2009, the Powerball game will change. The organizers are adding some white ball numbers to make the jackpots bigger and are subtracting some of the red ball numbers to create over 3.5 million more winners per year. The new Powerball will be a 59/39 game...

Read more here: http://www.powerball.com/

For existing PowerSpread System owners (http://www.silverlotto.com/powerball.htm), you don't need to buy another system from me.

The changes are simple:

1. Go to your Custom Profiles, and in each of the first 5 columns where the numbers end in 55, continue with 56, 57, 58, 59, then start from 1, 2, 3 etc until you reach the end of the column.

2. In the 6th column where the red ball numbers end in 42, cross out 42, 41, 40, then start from 1, 2, 3 etc until you reach the end of the column. So your numbers will look like this: ...37, 38, 39, 1, 2, 3, 4 etc.

3. Now redo your tickets with the changed numbers, and play!

Is the Economic Recession Getting You Down?

2008-10-12T19:28:00.001-07:00

Discover the Secret to Weathering a Recession and Walking Away with Your Bank Account, Your Retirement Fund, Your Investments and Your Pride!

Exclusive Offer!

Never Before Revealed Information!

When you’re unprepared for the impact of recession on your life and your business, the consequences can take you completely by surprise.

The economic recession brought on by over eager lenders, under-prepared borrowers, and overzealous government and an economy that cares more about its bottom line than its citizens has been pummeling Americans from coast to coast, and it doesn’t show any signs of going away any time soon.

Are you sick and tired of counting your pennies? Looking for a way to be free of the constant fear that one day you’re going to walk into your office and find a pink slip sitting there waiting for you? Would you like, just once to be the once sitting back and making a profit instead of the one worrying about whether this will be the week your business is going to have to close its doors?

Let Me Show You How...

Did you know that economic recessions aren’t anything new? The lifecycle of the business world very closely resembles the lifecycle of the average insect-it circles around, and around, and around, and…well, you get the picture. There are many stages inside that circle that keep business flowing smoothly and the wheels of progress turning the way they’re meant to.

An economic recession is only one of these stages.

Economic recessions are a vital part of the well being and health of our economy, and a study into our history will show that they actually happen on a fairly regular basis-and they usually don’t leave much damage behind. Why, then, do we panic so badly at the thought that this time might be our turn to weather an economic recession?

Because we don’t know what to do about it!

Business magnates understand that economic recession, a time when consumer spending is going to decrease for one reason or another and have a negative impact on the life and health of their company, is a necessary stage of life. From the moment they step into their corner office they’re carefully grooming and preparing the company for the moment when recession is going to rear its unattractive head and take a bite out of their profits.

Those of us who haven’t finished our MBA usually aren’t that well informed.

Without being aware of the necessity and the inevitability of an economic recession, most of us don’t realize that sooner or later recession is going to happen, and it’s going to impact all of our lives. We’ve been lulled into complacency by the constant boom and growth of the American economy, and we’re so focused on finding instant gratification for our desires that we don’t see when recession starts to creep up until it is far too late.

Strings of layoffs
Dramatic dips in the profits of your company
An increase in outsourced labor
The disappearance of expendable cash
A crashing housing market
Rapidly falling stock prices
Decreasing values of 401Ks and other retirement accounts
Companies going bankrupt

Everyone knows about the negative impacts of an Economic Recession. But what about the positive ones?

When you’ve walked into an unemployment office and seen hundreds of people filling out paperwork in the hope that somehow, someway, someone in that office will be able to help them find a job, it can be hard to believe that there are actually benefits to an economic recession. They are there, however, and if you’re a savvy business person you’ll be able to figure out how to take advantage of them. How do you think so many companies manage to stay in business when recessions happen at least once a decade?

Major corporations around the globe has learned how to weather an economic recession and keep making a profit, and now you can do it too! Regardless of whether you’re an entry level janitor or the CEO of a major corporation, the recession is going to have an impact on your life personally. The question is, what are you going to do about it? Are you going to let the recession bowl you over and leave you struggling for a way to keep your job and pay your bills? Or are you going to look at it as an opportunity to expand your horizons, stretch your wings and show the world what you can really do?

That was a choice I had to make for myself not too long ago

Two years ago I was sitting pretty. I had a good government job working as a contractor for the military, a good retirement plan, a salary that more than met our needs and an insurance program that kept my kids in antibiotics and vaccines.

All in all, life was looking pretty good. Then the recession hit.

I don’t know if any of you out there were unfortunate enough to be a part of this, but over the last two years military contractors have been steadily laying off hundreds of employees in an attempt to trim the fat from their bottom line and help them stay afloat as government contracts began to be canceled left, right and sideways. Because I had just accepted a new position within the company I was considered to be the new kid on the block, even though I had been working for them for years, and my job was among the first to go.

I was devastated.

Suddenly there I was, with a family to support and no income other than what I had coming in from our investments. I’m not ashamed to say I panicked at first. I couldn’t see how, at my age, I could possibly pick up and start all over again in another job. I’d invested too much time and effort to get where I had been, and the thought of having to climb that ladder all over again was enough to make me want to lock my door and hide for a year or two.

My general fondness for eating on a semi-regular basis got me out the door soon enough, however, and it wasn’t long before I was roaming the streets looking for another job. I was fortunate. I had remained in touch with many of my old college buddies, and one of them happened to work for a firm that had just lost one of its key employees and was looking for someone qualified who would be able to fill his place-quickly.

My friend’s recommendation and my own experience had me inside a new job within a month, but over the course of that month I saw hundreds of other contractors I had worked with who weren’t as lucky. They were out of work for months, many of them taking jobs that were far below their skills, their education and their experience just to have a paycheck.

And then there were a few of them that decided to start their own companies and offer their services to the private sector. A few of them started new careers in real estate. When I first heard what they were planning I thought they were out of their minds, but it wasn’t long before they started turning a profit-a big one.

I was astonished. If the U.S. government was losing money hand over fist and having to shut down its operations, how on earth were these little start-up companies managing to not only survive, but to thrive?

They were able to do it because they figured out how to take advantage of the recession!

I would never have believed that there would have been anything about an economic recession that would allow a company or a private entrepreneur to thrive, but as I talked with my old friends I realized that there was a side of the recession that we never saw-and that side could make the difference between surviving and thriving in the middle of an economic recession.

This is the ultimate guide to showing you how to thrive when everything else seems to be falling apart!

It’s really not fair that only a small percentage of the population has the knowledge they need to hang on to their jobs, increase their net worth and help their company thrive-especially when all they really need to do is change their mindset!! That’s why I decided to write Recession Suvival - How To Proft From An Economic Recession. I figured it was high time the rest of the world had the chance to learn what the major players already knew-the secrets for surviving an economic recession without going into debt!

But don’t take my word for it…

I don’t expect you to take my word for it. Hey, a recession can be scary stuff! That’s why I’m offering Recession Suvival - How To Proft From An Economic Recession complete with a 90 day money back guarantee. Buy the book. Read it. Put the strategies I’m going to show you into play in your own life!

Give investing a try
Grow your stock portfolio exponentially
Make yourself so indispensable your boss will never fire you!
Give your company the momentum it needs to get through the recession and go into the future with a bang

The secrets I’m going to show you in this book are the same business tricks and strategies that major corporations like Macy’s and J.C. Penney have been using to survive economic recessions for decades. Don’t you wonder sometimes why these companies have been in business for years? Wouldn’t you love to know what secrets are keeping their managers in the driver’s seats when hundreds of other companies are closing their doors? Let me show you!

There’s nothing in this book that requires you to throw thousands of dollars into some strange investment opportunity that’s “guaranteed to secure your future”.

Just plain, simple, easy to use tricks and strategies to help you ride out the recession and come out on top on the other side.All this for only $17!!

Illinois:The Lotterys Next Big Loser

2007-11-30T16:26:00.001-08:00

I saw a headline indicating that Illinois was about to get out of the lottery business.The state’s plan is to turn over the running of the lottery for the next 75 years to private investors in exchange for a huge sum up front — perhaps $10 billion. Indiana is considering following suit. The states seem to think they can do more with the money if they get a big balance all at once, albeit less money than the lottery would earn them over time. I understand that line of thinking.

Illinois wants what virtually every lottery winner wants: the money up front. Although now some lottery winners can take a large lump sum right away (of course, much less than the supposed value of the winning ticket), for years they were paid their jackpots in annuities over 20 or 25 years. There’s a major difference between getting a million dollars right away and getting 20 annual checks for $100,000 or so. Yes, both amounts are considered fair, but the lump sum is much preferable: you don’t have to wait to buy your mansion, or (more prudently) you can invest it, earn interest on it, and be protected against inflation.

Arnold Schwarzenegger to Lease State Lottery

2007-10-19T16:33:00.000-07:00

Analysts from Wall Street testifying at a State Senate hearing in California on Wednesday said that leasing the California State Lottery could raise enough money to help finance health care reform, but only if lawmakers loosen rules enacted to prevent runaway gambling.

Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger announced proposals last week to generate two billion dollars a year to help pay for universal health insurance by leasing the state's lottery. Many experts feel that one way to make the lottery more attractive to bidders is to allow it to undergo a technological transformation that would include the use of equipment such as video lottery terminals resembling slot machines.

'The less constraints, the higher the value,” said Steve Juarez of JPMorgan Chase.

Juarez and other experts at the informational hearing stated that rolling back restraints in the 23-year-old initiative that authorised the lottery would entice more players and boost the current three billion dollars in annual sales and also the long-term value of the games.

However, Fred Jones, an attorney for Californians Against Gambling Expansion, said any such change would be ‘more like going from bows and arrows to fully automatic weapons’ aimed at the poor. The lottery, he said, is part of the gambling industry that mimics a regressive tax that disproportionately hurts low-income people.

'This is very much a political matter and a very important public policy transaction,' said Kathleen Brown, the former State Treasurer and current Head of West Coast Operations for Wall Street investment firm Goldman Sachs.

$13 Million Lotto Winner Shares Journey To Jackpot

2007-10-14T07:22:00.000-07:00

An Orlando man who just knew he'd win the lottery one day finally did last Saturday.

He'd already won $100,000 twice and another $50,000 along the way, but this time it was more.

Jose Salmon was so sure that he'd hit it big one day, that since 1998, he was spending $600 a day on lottery tickets.

Accountants win $15M in lottery

2007-10-05T06:52:00.000-07:00

15 bean counters from Burlington win $15 million after playing same numbers in lottery for 8 years

Oct 05, 2007 04:30 AM

Paola Loriggio
Staff Reporter

It takes more than a winning lottery ticket to change an accountant.

Of the 15 accountants splitting Wednesday's $15,477,335 Lotto 6/49 jackpot, nearly everyone plans to use the winnings to pay off bills and mortgages or make some strategic investments.

Not Dianne Sherring. She's buying her husband a boat.

"He's wanted one for years," Sherring said as she and her colleagues picked up their cheque at the Ontario Lottery and Gaming prize centre yesterday afternoon.

Now, she said, he can have one.

The group – colleagues from the Burlington waste management firm Newalta Industrial Services – has been buying lottery tickets together for roughly eight years, and always picks the same numbers, said another winner, Jim Vallance.

It's only happenstance that there are 15 of them and $15 million to share, Vallance said.

"It's a coincidence," the Grimsby resident said.

Still reeling from the news, the new millionaires struggled to contain their high spirits long enough to pose for photographers.

"Yahoo!" whooped fellow winner Doug Steeves as he gave a happy dance for the cameras.

Sherring's hands shook as she passed the cheque – a regular one, not an oversized novelty – to her colleagues.

Though the winning numbers were revealed Wednesday night, the group didn't know its luck until the following morning.

Sherring, the group co-ordinator, was too busy to check on Wednesday, like she usually does.

When she got to work yesterday morning, co-worker Sandra Cooper, another winner, insisted she look up the results online.

"Dianne and I both hate our jobs," Cooper joked when asked about her urgency.

(Two of the winners plan to retire in light of their windfall, but not Sherring and Cooper.)

Sherring caved in to the pressure and logged on to the lottery website.

"By the time I got to the fourth number, my heart was beating fast," she said. "By the time I got to the sixth number, it was like `Oh, my God!'"

The pair's resounding shrieks of "Oh, my God" soon alerted the entire seven-floor office building.

"I think all of Burlington knows," Steeves quipped.

"It was just like the commercial," Sherring said.

The winners come from Grimsby, Hamilton, Smithville and St. Catharines. They are between 32 and 70 years old.

Beat The Lotto

2007-07-28T15:57:00.000-07:00

At long last you can SKYROCKET your chances of winning to Beat The Lotto.

Reduce the odds, GUARANTEED…

Every one has played the Lottery, yet that elusive big win, or even small profitable one, continues to elude us... apart from the very lucky few!

It’s time to reduce the gamble; it’s time to sway the odds in YOUR favour.

Now, here's something completely new, WHICH COULD CHANGE YOUR LIFE.

But first, a question. . .

How much easier do you think it would it be to capture the 6 winning numbers in a lottery draw if you were allowed to select and use an entire group of 14 numbers in the attempt, instead of just the usual six?

OK, you could still miss all 6 winning numbers, but the answer I hear you shouting is of course: "This will make it many times easier"..

And you'd be exactly right!

But let's be realistic here, your chances of finding those 6 winning numbers when you use a complete group of any 14-numbers to trace them are hundreds of percent greater than when you're confined to just the ordinary 'use 6 to find 6' procedure.

In other words, seeking a group of 6 using a group of 14 beats the pants off of using 6 to find 6!

Of course, selecting your 14-numbers is only part of the story - albeit an important part!

Having done so, you must then be able to arrange them into a series of highly potent 6-number game groups that you would play on the lottery to give you not just one but many chances of winning a share of the prize money.

Put another way, selecting a group of 14-numbers that subsequently proves to incorporate the 6 winning numbers is the first step. The second step is to construct a series of 6-number game groups using those 14-numbers and to do it in such way that most, if not all, of the captured winning numbers are brought together in one or more of the constructed 6-number game groups that you play on the lottery.

So, to summarize, there are two essential elements:

The first is to select any fourteen numbers played on the lottery in question and in doing so to capture the six winning numbers within that selected fourteen numbers group.

The second is to 'crunch' those fourteen numbers selected in a manner that isolates the winners and pulls them together in a series of 6-number game groups - all of which you play at one and the same time in a given lottery draw.

The first of those two elements is down to you as the player. But the exciting thing about this aspect is that a review of any lottery anywhere often reveals numbers that are drawn with significantly greater frequency than others. As a start point, these are the numbers to include in your 14-numbers group. And there are ways of refining the choice procedure.

The second element is where the 'something new' I mentioned earlier now takes its bow of introduction.

An awe inspiring new system that I've chosen to call BeatTheLotto.

In brief BeatTheLotto has its roots in higher mathematical formulae that calculate the risk, chance and likelihood of 6-number game groups that are derived from the 14 selected numbers mathematically being most likely to incorporate the six winning numbers, and generate no less than seventeen 6-number game groups with a high probability of success - always provided that those six winning numbers are in the first place contained within the 14-selected numbers.

So, does BeatTheLotto work? How reliably does it draw those winning numbers together? How much prize money can BeatTheLotto put in your pocket - and how often?

Judge for yourself.

To test BeatTheLotto I looked-up the results of the British Lotto draws made between 8th November and 26th November, 2003, inclusive. I only chose the British Lotto because this is where I live, BeatTheLotto will crack any lottery in any country.

I took the six winning numbers for each of the dates concerned and added to them eight additional numbers chosen at random to give the required 14-numbers selection for BeatTheLotto.

And the question was, "If I'd chosen these six different sets of fourteen numbers on the dates concerned and processed them through BeatTheLotto and then played the seventeen games recommended each time by BeatTheLotto, what would have been the outcome for me?"

Here are the results:

8th Nov:
7 lines with 3 winning numbers
1 line with 4 winning numbers
1 line with 5 winning numbers

12th Nov:
5 lines with 3 winning numbers
2 lines with 4 winning numbers
1 line with 5 winning numbers

15th Nov:
6 lines with 3 winning numbers
1 line with 4 winning numbers
1 line with 5 winning numbers

19th Nov:
5 lines with 3 winning numbers
3 lines with 4 winning numbers

22nd Nov:
5 lines with 3 winning numbers
1 line with 4 winning numbers
1 line with 5 winning numbers

26th Nov:
7 lines with 3 winning numbers
1 line with 4 winning numbers
1 line with 5 winning numbers

OK, so no jackpot. But the results achieved add-up to superb cash returns. RANGING FROM HUNDREDS TO THOUSANDS OF POUNDS IN CASH WINNING!

And in five of the six tests BeatTheLotto is within just ONE number of landing the jackpot.

How impressive is that?

Using the 14-numbers selection approach to find all six winning numbers won't necessarily guarantee your getting all six winners in a single 6-number game group and therefore winning the jackpot.

Of course you may likely do so, and these six tests imply that at some point you will, but because you've trawled the six winners using a 14-numbers net there is a possibility, depending upon where they're positioned within the 14-numbers, that they may not all be brought together in any of the 6-number game groups that you play.

However, as you see, BeatTheLotto will consistently give you multiple wins per draw comprising of various combinations of three, four and even five winning numbers per group.

And, of course, from time-to-time BeatTheLotto will more than likely capture all six winners in one of the 6-number game groups to give you that jackpot win.

As you will know, the British Lotto is a 6-Pick 49-ball lottery. But playing a 6-Pick 42-ball lottery obviously makes it even easier to include the required 6 winning numbers in the 14-numbers selection needed for BeatTheLotto.

Test results may vary from the examples given depending upon how numerically close or otherwise the winning numbers are to each other but will nonetheless consistently demonstrate BeatTheLotto's sensational potential for producing big prize profits from any 6-Pick lottery - not just once, but time and time again.

Just get those six winning numbers within your selected fourteen, and you're in the money - every time!

BeatTheLotto Pick-5
Development & Test Report

When I set out to create the Pick-5 version of BeatTheLotto I felt it was vital to retain the outstanding power inherent in the existing Pick-6 version.

And so I’ve incorporated in BeatTheLotto Pick-5 a great deal of the BeatTheLotto Pick-6 procedures and under testing have found the new Pick-5 Application’s performance to be comparable to that of the original Pick-6 version.

The main difference you’ll notice between BTL Pick-5 and BTL Pick-6, aside from the fact that the games played comprise only 5 numbers, is that BTL Pick-5 deploys 20 games whereas BTL Pick-6 needs only 17 games. This is a consequence that arises out of retaining the BTL Pick-6 14 numbers selection procedure whilst reducing the games size from 6 to 5. But the considerable advantage of retaining the full 14 numbers selection procedure for Pick-5 is that it provides you with the same high potential catchment factor for the winning lottery numbers, even though it means you need to play an extra three games per lottery draw.

For data to run my tests with Pick-5 I went to the Website of BeatTheLotto customer Eva Dorn’s favourite lotto, the Carolina 5, and noted the results of the five draws from January 27th to February 10th, 2004, inclusive. Then, to simulate real playing situations, I mixed each of the actual five sets of winning numbers for those dates with randomly chosen nine other numbers to give in each case the required total of fourteen numbers to run through the BTL Pick-5 selection process.

Here are the test results:

February 3rd

First test:
First test: 3 lines x 4 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers

Second test:
6 lines x 3 numbers

February 10th

First test:
7 lines x 3 numbers

Second test:
3 lines x 3 numbers
1 line x 4 numbers

February 6th

First test:
1 line x 4 numbers
2 lines x 3 numbers

Second test:
4 lines x 3 numbers

January 30th

First test:
4 lines x 3 numbers

Second test:
2 lines x 3 numbers
1 line x 4 numbers

In the case of January 27th draw we have a most interesting situation in that the spread of winning numbers – 1,12, 19, 23 and 35 – makes the game an extremely hard one to call. The acute difficulty is due to two of the winners, 1 and 35, being at the opposite ends of the total 36 numbers in play.

Because of this I put BTL Pick-5 through no less than TWELVE separate test runs for this particular group of winning numbers and used different combinations of random numbers and, with the exception of the winning number 1 which always occupied the first selection cell, experimented with different placing of the winning numbers in the selection grid within the changing sequence of random numbers.

The twelve separate results are:

1 line x 3 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
2 lines x 3 numbers and 1 line x 4 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
2 lines x 3 numbers and 1 line x 4 numbers
2 lines x 3 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
3 lines x 3 numbers
1 line x 4 numbers
1 line x 3 numbers and 1 line x 4 numbers

You should bear in mind that these are the results of twelve separate tests on the same group of the actual 5 winning numbers taken from the January 27th 2004 draw of the US Carolina 5 Lottery. Remember, too, that this particular set of winning numbers is extraordinarily difficult to handle because two of them are at extreme opposites ends of the total numbers in play, effectively leaving BeatTheLotto Pick-5 with only 3 of the 5 numbers involved having vital positional flexibility.

Yet, despite all, in what by any standard of measurement must rank as a seriously punishing test, BeatTheLotto Pick-5, as you can clearly see from the results tabled above, succeeded in generating a full house of winning games.

On that basis I am happy to offer BTL Pick-5 to you as a worthy bonus companion to BTL Pick-6.

Frankly, once you've run through a few trials using past lottery results you'll begin to realise just how much real lottery-winning power you have in your hands with BeatTheLotto.

But don't take my word for it! You don't have to risk a penny to prove me wrong!

However, if I'm right, you could be just one ticket away from a lottery jackpot.

I'm absolutely convinced that BeatTheLotto will change your life. When you stop to consider, the vast majority of people world-wide never have won much, if anything, from playing the lottery. And truth to tell, choosing 6 to find 6, most never will.

But BeatTheLotto can change all that, providing many with a means of taking a worthwhile regular and substantial profit and doubtless creating a few new millionaires along the way.

And if all that wasn't enough I'm pre-launching BeatTheLotto at an unbelievable introductory price. As BeatTheLotto extends it's reach into the marketplace I shall be retailing it at $97.

But during this pre-launch time I'm slashing that to just $39.95

My reason is that I want to get people using it and winning with it. The more winners the more the word will spread, the more people win...

Everyone has their own way of playing lotto

2007-06-12T15:53:00.000-07:00



Some folks play when they can afford it.

Other folk play when they can't afford it!

Others - when the winning numbers are close in one game - will immediately go out and play another game in the hope that their 'good luck' streak will continue.

None of the above is a good idea. But particularly relying on good luck.

Because there's no such thing as a streak of good luck. It's just when two or more good things happen together we sit up and take notice because it looks so unusual.

It's just life being random, but looking connected.

PSYCHICS AND THE LOTTERY

2007-06-10T03:29:00.001-07:00

Whatever your belief about the credibility of psychics, I do believe that some people are just more in tune with the universe than others. Also, that not all psychics are created equal.

I have found the websites of several psychics lately. Amongst the postings some will list a subscription that you can purchase for winning lottery numbers. They will list winning numbers that they have predicted. I just wonder how the winning numbers that they have selected corresponds with the total number of people that have signed up for subscriptions or are the numbers that they are selecting just a natural occurrence that fall into line with the laws of probability.

If you are going to purchase a subscription for lottery numbers from a psychic, as with anything, do your homework and let the buyer beware.

8 lottery winners who lost their millions - MSN Money

8 lottery winners who lost their millions - MSN Money

Having piles of cash only compounds problems for some people. Here are sad tales of foolishness, hit men, greedy relatives and dreams dashed.

By Bankrate.com

For a lot of people, winning the lottery is the American dream. But for many lottery winners, the reality is more like a nightmare.

"Winning the lottery isn't always what it's cracked up to be," says Evelyn Adams, who won the New Jersey lottery not just once, but twice (1985, 1986), to the tune of $5.4 million. Today the money is all gone and Adams lives in a trailer.

"I won the American dream but I lost it, too. It was a very hard fall. It's called rock bottom," says Adams.

"Everybody wanted my money. Everybody had their hand out. I never learned one simple word in the English language -- 'No.' I wish I had the chance to do it all over again. I'd be much smarter about it now," says Adams, who also lost money at the slot machines in Atlantic City.

"I was a big-time gambler," admits Adams. "I didn't drop a million dollars, but it was a lot of money. I made mistakes, some I regret, some I don't. I'm human. I can't go back now so I just go forward, one step at a time."

Living on food stamps

William "Bud" Post won $16.2 million in the Pennsylvania lottery in 1988 but now lives on his Social Security.

"I wish it never happened. It was totally a nightmare," says Post.

A former girlfriend successfully sued him for a share of his winnings. It wasn't his only lawsuit. A brother was arrested for hiring a hit man to kill him, hoping to inherit a share of the winnings. Other siblings pestered him until he agreed to invest in a car business and a restaurant in Sarasota, Fla., -- two ventures that brought no money back and further strained his relationship with his siblings.

Post even spent time in jail for firing a gun over the head of a bill collector. Within a year, he was $1 million in debt.

Post admitted he was both careless and foolish, trying to please his family. He eventually declared bankruptcy.

Now he lives quietly on $450 a month and food stamps.

"I'm tired, I'm over 65 years old, and I just had a serious operation for a heart aneurysm. Lotteries don't mean (anything) to me," says Post.

Deeper in debt

Suzanne Mullins won $4.2 million in the Virginia lottery in 1993. Now she's deeply in debt to a company that lent her money using the winnings as collateral.

She borrowed $197,746.15, which she agreed to pay back with her yearly checks from the Virginia lottery through 2006. When the rules changed allowing her to collect her winnings in a lump sum, she cashed in the remaining amount. But she stopped making payments on the loan.

She blamed the debt on the lengthy illness of her uninsured son-in-law, who needed $1 million for medical bills.

Mark Kidd, the Roanoke, Va., lawyer who represented the Singer Asset Finance Company who sued Mullins, confirms her plight. He won a judgment for the company against Mullins for $154,147 last May, but they have yet to collect a nickel.

"My understanding is she has no assets," says Kidd.

Back to the basics

Ken Proxmire was a machinist when he won $1 million in the Michigan lottery. He moved to California and went into the car business with his brothers. Within five years, he had filed for bankruptcy.

"He was just a poor boy who got lucky and wanted to take care of everybody," explains Ken's son Rick.

"It was a hell of a good ride for three or four years, but now he lives more simply. There's no more talk of owning a helicopter or riding in limos. We're just everyday folk. Dad's now back to work as a machinist," says his son.

Willie Hurt of Lansing, Mich., won $3.1 million in 1989. Two years later he was broke and charged with murder. His lawyer says Hurt spent his fortune on a divorce and crack cocaine.

Charles Riddle of Belleville, Mich., won $1 million in 1975. Afterward, he got divorced, faced several lawsuits and was indicted for selling cocaine.

Missourian Janite Lee won $18 million in 1993. Lee was generous to a variety of causes, giving to politics, education and the community. But according to published reports, eight years after winning, Lee had filed for bankruptcy with only $700 left in two bank accounts and no cash on hand.

One Southeastern family won $4.2 million in the early '90s. They bought a huge house and succumbed to repeated family requests for help in paying off debts.

The house, cars and relatives ate the whole pot. Eleven years later, the couple is divorcing, the house is sold and they have to split what is left of the lottery proceeds. The wife got a very small house. The husband has moved in with the kids. Even the life insurance they bought ended up getting cashed in.

"It was not the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow," says their financial advisor.

Luck is fleeting

These sad-but-true tales are not uncommon, say the experts.

"For many people, sudden money can cause disaster," says Susan Bradley, a certified financial planner in Palm Beach, Fla., and founder of the Sudden Money Institute, a resource center for new money recipients and their advisors.

"In our culture, there is a widely held belief that money solves problems. People think if they had more money, their troubles would be over. When a family receives sudden money, they frequently learn that money can cause as many problems as it solves," she says.

Craig Wallace, a senior funding officer for a company that buys lottery annuity payments in exchange for lump sums, agrees.

"Going broke is a common malady, particularly with the smaller winners. Say you've won $1 million. What you've really won is a promise to be paid $50,000 a year. People win and they think they're millionaires. They go out and buy houses and cars and before they know it, they're in way over their heads," he says.

Are you really a 'millionaire'?

Part of the problem is that the winners buy into the hype.

"These people believe they are millionaires. They buy into the hype, but most of these people will go to their graves without ever becoming a millionaire," says Wallace, who has been in the business for almost a decade.

"In New Jersey, they manipulate the reality of the situation to sell more tickets. Each winner takes a picture with a check that becomes a 3-foot by 5-foot stand-up card. The winner is photographed standing next to a beautiful woman and the caption reads: 'New Jersey's newest millionaire.'"

Winning plays a game with your head

Bradley, who authored "Sudden Money: Managing a Financial Windfall," says winners get into trouble because they fail to address the emotional connection to the windfall.

"There are two sides to money. The interior side is the psychology of money and the family relationship to money. The exterior side is the tax codes, the money allocation, etc."

"The goal is to integrate the two. People who can't integrate their interior relationship with money appropriately are more likely to crash and burn," says Bradley.

"Often they can keep the money and lose family and friends -- or lose the money and keep the family and friends -- or even lose the money and lose the family and friends."

Bill Pomeroy, a certified financial planner in Baton Rouge, La., has dealt with a number of lottery winners who went broke.

"Because the winners have a large sum of money, they make the mistake of thinking they know what they're doing. They are willing to plunk down large sums on investments they know nothing about or go in with a partner who may not know how to run a business."

What if you get so (un)lucky?

To offset some bad early decision-making and the inevitable requests of friends, relatives and strangers, Bradley recommends lottery winners start by setting up a DFZ or decision-free zone.

"Take time out from making any financial decisions," she says. "Do this right away. For some people, it's smart to do it before you even get your hands on the money.

"People who are not used to having money are fragile and vulnerable, and there are plenty of people out there who are willing to prey on that vulnerability -- even friends and family," she cautions.

"It's not a time to decide what stocks to buy or jump into a new house purchase or new business venture.

"It's a time to think things through, sort things out and seek an advisory team to help make those important financial choices."

As an example, Bradley says that people who come into a windfall will typically put buying a house as No. 1 in list of 12 choices, while investing is No. 11.

"You really don't want to buy a new house before taking the time to think about what the consequences are.

"A lot of people who don't have money don't realize how much it costs to live in a big house -- decorators, furniture, taxes, insurance, even utility costs are greater. People need a reality check before they sign the contract," she says.

Evelyn Adams, the N.J. lottery double-winner, learned these lessons the hard way.

"There are a lot of people out there like me who don't know how to deal with money," laments Adams. "Hey, some people went broke in six months. At least I held on for a few years."

My Lotto Strategy

2007-05-25T20:01:00.001-07:00

Ever since the Texas lottery started (I guess it's been about 10 years) I've always played the same numbers for each drawing. I've come to the conclusion that my numbers pretty much stink, but I'm afraid that if I were to change them now, the old numbers would hit...just because that's kinda how my luck works.

Anybody else got some number picking strategies?

A method, hokey as it sounds, for picking numbers, is to use the little paper provided in most Chinese Fortune Cookies, with the saying, the words in Chinese, etc. There are usually lucky numbers on the bottom, I play them- haven't won yet, but who knows?

Know which form of gambling is for you

2007-05-15T07:53:00.000-07:00

Gambling has evolved into different forms. Gambling, primarily, is a form of entertainment. It is a sport involving money, or whatever is at stake, in a game of chance. Gambling or betting began as early as 2300 B.C. Gambling artifacts, like dice, had been found in countries like Egypt, China, India and Rome. In a recent poll, 63% of Americans support legalized gambling. Another 22% agree that it must be expanded. From dice to roulettes and to computer mouse, which form of gambling is for you? Here are some choices:

*Casino games
These are gambling games usually played inside the casino. A player can win with the right tactic and optimistic mathematical probability. Here are some examples:

Poker
Poker is the most popular casino game. It is believed to have been originated from the game ‘as nas’, which is a Persian game. It uses a deck of cards for a series of betting rounds. The player with the best hand wins the pot. Poker is also regarded as a game of strategy and skill.

Online Casino
These are virtual casinos that are played on the internet. The rules are similar with actual casino games but players can either be a real or computer- generated players.

Slot machines
A betting machine that uses a coin to rotate a set of reels usually pulled by a lever. You have to get identical patterns to win.

Roulette
Roulettes were invented by Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, in 1842. It is a simple gambling game where in you have to bet on which number a small ball will hit.

*Gambling with fixed- odds
These are certain types of game where in you have to bet on a specific outcome of a given situation. These include horse racing, baseball, motor racing, jai alai and ice hockey, among others.

*Sports betting
Even though illegal in most countries, sports betting have boomed in the gambling industry. Bets are based on a point system of sports, like baseball or football. Common sports bets are: against the spread, against odds and against a combination of spread and odds.

*Arbitrage betting
You might often see this on the web tagged as risk- free gambling. The concept is to put a bet on a particular result with varied betting groups. Being an investment procedure, it involves a bigger amount of money compared to normal gambling.

Be sure to treat gambling as a pastime, and not a source of money. When engaged in one, set a maximum spending limit. Practice gambling in moderation and don’t let it interfere with your set priorities in life.

This site if very helpful, and gives you a lot of information that you may be looking for on winning the lottery.

An inspiring story

2007-04-18T13:07:00.000-07:00

There was a young girl in Hamer, Tennessee who, at age seven, was orphaned and had to go to the home of her older sister and be raised by the sister and her no-nonsense farmer husband. She didn't have much growing up. She worked in a grocery store, married, had a child, and then worked in a convenience store owned by Terry Derryberry.

The Tennessee lottery had launched a new scratch-off game, in which the grand prize was $1000 a week for life, with a minimum guarantee of a million dollars. The young woman had asked the owner for the last remaining 8 tickets on the old roll, and bought two with part of her small weekly paycheck. She was driving home and decided to scratch the tickets, and, to her amazement, she WON!!

She ended up buying the convenience store where she worked, and is now the proud owner. This is proof that lottery dreams can come true.

Tax considerations

2007-04-06T11:23:00.001-07:00

When you\'re learning about something new, it\'s easy to feel overwhelmed by the sheer amount of relevant information available. This informative article should help you focus on the central points.

If you base what you do on inaccurate information, you might be unpleasantly surprised by the consequences. Make sure you get the whole Lottery story from informed sources.

For some taxpayers, the dream of a sudden windfall can turn into a awful tax headache. Winning a major lottery prize requires an immediate examination of the winner\'s situation, often including a choice of whether to take the award in a lump sum or as an annuity, determining if there was a preexisting agreement to share costs and winnings, deciding on whether to make gifts—charitable or otherwise—and calculating the impact on the winner\'s potential gross estate.

Every day, in 37 states and the District of Columbia, lottery contestants take a chance on becoming instant millionaires. If they win, their lives will forever be changed by new social, family, and financial pressures. Among the issues they must immediately confront are the tax implications.

INCOME TAX ISSUES

From an income tax perspective, the issues include the timing of income recognition, application of the constructive receipt and economic benefit doctrines, withholding, the ability to offset losses, and the potential to assign or sell the lottery proceeds.

Inclusion in Income
There no longer is any question (if ever there was) but that winnings from lotteries and raffles are gambling winnings included in gross income under Section 61.1 In addition, Section 74(a) states that "gross income includes amounts received as prizes and awards."2 Section 102(a) provides an exclusion from income for gifts, but a lottery prize is received in exchange for the purchase of a lottery ticket and not from the "detached and disinterested generosity" of the lottery.3

In some instances, when a lottery prize is payable in installments, the lottery may purchase a bond or an annuity, and a portion of each annual installment may be designated as interest on the unpaid balance. Section 103(a) provides that "gross income does not include interest on any State or local bond." Given the fact that a portion of each annual installment of a lottery prize is designated as interest, there is at least a color able argument that the interest being paid falls within the scope of Section 103(a). Nevertheless, Rev. Rul. 78-140, 1978-1 CB 27, states that amounts designated as interest to be paid on the unpaid annual installments of the grand prize of a state lottery, with the interest and the installments totaling the stated amount of the prize, will not be excludable from gross income of the winner under Section 103(a).

Sometimes it\'s tough to sort out all the details related to this subject, but I\'m positive you\'ll have no trouble making sense of the information presented above.

There is a newspaper guy that delivers every day Monday though Friday . He is around 57 years of age. One day I asked him how come your doing this job.

Chicken follow-up

How unfortunate for that chicken. I guess his curiosity got the best of him.

As far as systems to win the lottery are concerned, I have read several and have tried their recommended techniques, but so far any winning that I have done has been purely out of chance. I\'m not a big lottery player, but wouldn't mind hitting on occasion. Might bring me back more often. What suggestions would you have for winning at the lottery?

A British newspaper reported that a chicken which picked out winning lottery numbers for its owner has been eaten by a fox. The chicken, named 'Lucky' was originally rescued from death by its owner, Billy Gibbons. Lucky used to peck out the numbers on a calculator and over time got Billy almost US$2,5000. However, the fox entered an unlocked coop - and the winner became a dinner!

Pay Day loans may seem like a boon and a blessing to you when your paycheck doesn’t stretch until the end of the month, or when an emergency comes up. But, in the long run Pay Day loans are a bane and a burden to most borrowers who take one out. They can ruin your credit, too!

You work hard for your money. The last thing you need is to fall into a trap set by a predatory lender to drain you of your hard-earned cash.

WARNING-Holiday Millionaire Raffle tickets and Ebay

2006-12-25T18:23:00.001-08:00

Statement by

THE FLORIDA LOTTERY

Regarding the purchase of Holiday Millionaire Raffle™ tickets

TALLAHASSEE--It was recently brought to our attention that Florida Lottery Holiday Millionaire Raffle tickets were being offered for sale in a manner inconsistent with state laws governing the purchase and sale of Florida Lottery tickets.

Specifically, some Holiday Millionaire Raffle tickets were being offered for sale or auction on the Internet Web site eBay in apparent violation of both Florida Statutes and eBay's own terms of service. The Florida Lottery Division of Security has contacted eBay's Division of Trust and Safety requesting that those auctions be closed.

Doug Pitts, Director of Security for the Florida Lottery said, "The integrity of our games is paramount to us. Without the public's confidence in our security procedures, we risk the ability to accomplish our mission of selling lottery tickets in an honest and fair manner in order to raise funds for Florida's education system. We take these responsibilities seriously and will pursue and investigate any violations of the law."

It is important to note also that anyone purchasing a lottery ticket from a non-authorized source risks obtaining a counterfeit ticket, which will not be honored for payment. In an effort to help our players avoid being scammed, we are taking this opportunity to reinforce with the public some important laws regarding the purchase and sale of Florida Lottery game tickets.

Florida Statute 24.117 prohibits the sale of tickets by any person or business not under contract with the Florida Lottery as an authorized lottery retailer. The same statute also prohibits the sale of Florida Lottery tickets at any price other than the official, established price. Violations are first-degree misdemeanors and are punishable by fines and jail time. Moreover, Florida Statute 24.115 prohibits the payment of a prize on any ticket sold or purchased in violation of the statutes. Specifically, this means that the Florida Lottery may be prohibited from paying cash or other prizes on tickets acquired through the Internet or other unauthorized sources. Additionally, the same holds true for tickets purchased for an amount other than the original, official price. Finally, Lottery retailers who sell lottery tickets at a price other than the face value are subject to criminal prosecution and termination of their Lottery contract.

The Florida Lottery is delighted by the overwhelming popularity of the game and looks forward to conducting the official drawing on January 1, 2007. In the meantime, we are reminding players who purchased a Holiday Millionaire Raffle ticket to avoid misplacing it and to check to see if they are a winner on New Year's Day.

Does Money Buy you Happiness?

2006-12-02T11:10:00.000-08:00

Here's the picture of me from the National Enquirer, taken after my Fantasy Five win:

Do I look happy? YOU BET!! Because that money enabled me to leave a relationship that was becoming abusive and start fresh in a place of my own. Also, my ex's reaction when I won the money was telling. he was NOT pleased. He got angry- thought it should have been him.

Here's an article that backs up what I have been saying:

By MALCOLM RITTER,
AP Science Writer Sun Nov 26
--------------
NEW YORK - Does money buy happiness? It's sometimes said that scientists have found no relationship between money and happiness, but that's a myth, says University of Illinois psychologist Ed Diener.

The connection is complex, he says. But in fact, very rich people rate substantially higher in satisfaction with life than very poor people do, even within wealthy nations, he says.

"There is overwhelming evidence that money buys happiness," said economist Andrew Oswald of the University of Warwick in England. The main debate, he said, is how strong the effect is.

Oswald recently reported a study of Britons who won between $2,000 and $250,000 in a lottery. As a group, they showed a boost in happiness... compared to their levels two years before they won.

As Freya Aswynn says: "Money does not solve all problems, but it makes most problems bearable!"

Three ways to attract good luck

2006-11-29T19:46:00.000-08:00

1. Eat Lutefisk at Christmas- JUST KIDDING!!!

1. Be prepared. That means having a system in place that you know will work. Otherwise it's just guesswork.

2. Be positive. You may think that simply thinking bright thoughts will not change anything... But you're wrong. Positivity is contagious. You are what you think, and positive thoughts lead to positive actions.

3. Take action. This is the most important step. If you had a premonition that this will be your winning week, then act on it. Buy the tickets, play the game.

Good luck can be engineered. You first have to think about it, then act on it.

Don't listen to anybody who hasn't won lotto... there are plenty of negative people around who will tell you how to lose. Instead, associate with winners - they will help you get to your goals.

Let's talk about winning!

2006-11-27T16:54:00.000-08:00

This is the way that many people think lotto is won:

They think there are a bunch of numbers, some that are regular, and others not so. Hot and cold.

HOT: These are numbers that have appeared
 recently and are expected not to appear for a while.

COLD: Numbers that haven't been used for a long time,
  and are going to be available very soon.


Don't worry about memorizing these silly hot/cold facts.

It's all a farce.

There's no such things as Hot and Cold numbers. It was all made up years ago by someone to prove a theory to sell their systems.

Because the real secret is this:
 Each game starts from zero. From scratch.


That's because lotto number combinations have no memory.

They can't follow a Hot and Cold pattern because winning number combinations start from the beginning each time.

There is no predictability.

You cannot tell when a particular number arrives. Just like tossing a coin - sure, after 100 tosses it may land heads 50 times and tails the rest - but you don't know WHEN.

In the same way, in every lotto draw the number combinations start from a completely new set. And they have no relationship to last week, last month or last year's patterns.

Not many people understand this.

Mathematicians do...that's why they generally belittle lotto systems.

Thanksgiving Tales

2006-11-23T19:30:00.000-08:00

I was telling my daughter at our Thanksgiving dinner table earlier today about the dream that I had shortly after winning the Florida Lottery Fantasy Five game. I dreamt about being in a convenience store when the winning Fantasy Five numbers came up. I sat up in bed like a shot and wrote the numbers day and played them. Within a few days, four of the five numbers had come in, and the last one was one number off. If I had chosen 19 instead of 18, I would have won another thirty thousand dollars!

I wasn't greedy though- glad for the first win. I used the money from my four out of five to buy groceries for a needy person.

This year, the Florida Lottery has a new game, the Holiday Millionaire Raffle. My husband and I have already bought our ticket. Ten lucky winners will be the first Florida Lottery millionaires of 2007. Also, 20 players will win $100,000 and 100 players will win $10,000! Tickets cost $20 each. Each ticket is pre-numbered-there are no numbers to choose. Sales will end when the 1,250,000th ticket is sold or at midnight on Saturday, December 30, 2006, whichever comes first.

8 Lottery mistakes you should avoid

2006-11-21T13:17:00.000-08:00

Don't play just when you "feel like it". Play consistently, on schedule.
Don't play on popular days. Saturday is usually a "popular day' to play, because most people get paid on Friday. Take the less-traveled route. Ask the people where you buy your tickets which days are the least-popular, and play on those days. There will be less competition.
Don't go over your budget. Don't be like the Wal-Mart clerks I have seen cashing their paychecks at convenience stores and then spending most of it on lotto, especially when the jackpot is high.
Don't miss games. Play your chosen games consistently.
If you have a good system for picking numbers, stick with it! Don't change your numbers.
Don't give up too soon. The old saying "the darkest hour is just before dawn" applies here.
Don't play games with 7 or 8 balls. Stick with games with 5 or 6 balls, or even lower. The less balls, the greater your odds of winning something.
Don't play the game with the highest numbers. Instead play the game with the lowest.

"To get more... do more!"

2006-11-20T12:52:00.000-08:00

Here's a simple success tip.  You can use it for life or lotto.

"To get more... do more!"

These five words can be applied to everything:

- to earn more, work more
- to buy more, spend more
- to travel further, drive more
- to learn more, read more
- to get fatter, eat more.

Some of those examples are plain silly.  Who wants to get fat anyway?

But this one I've deliberately left out...

"To win more, play more!"

Lotto Tips

2006-11-18T12:12:00.000-08:00

I was watching TV last week as a major lotto winner was talking about his winning premonition. He said that for a short while before his huge million-dollar windfall he had a feeling that he was going to win the Big One.

It was this powerful, gut-wrenching feeling of eventual success that kept him buying tickets week after week... certain that he was soon going to score the major prize.

Well of course he did. But what was interesting was his feelings of high expectation. You could say it was his destiny revealing itself.

Rituals make life easier...even when playing lotto. Try these:

1. Go down to your local lotto shop at the same time each week.

2. Go with the same friend each time.

3. Park in the same spot if you can (or like me, walk - it's better for you).

4. See the same assistant to have your tickets processed.

5. Have a coffee afterwards in the same shop.

These small rituals build on your play tactics so you'll feel as if you're missing out when you don't do it. That gives you an automatic incentive to keep going.

Once you've done this a number of times, it will be easy to continue playing regularly. Regular play is one of the most powerful ways to improve your odds.

Why Should I Make a Budget?

2006-11-16T13:59:00.000-08:00

Q. I won the lottery- so, why should I be tied to a budget?

A.You say you know where your money goes and you don’t need it all written down to keep up with it? I issue you this challenge. Keep track of every penny you spend for one month and I do mean every penny.

You will be shocked at what the itty-bitty expenses add up to. Take the total you spent on just one unnecessary item for the month, multiply it by 12 for months in a year and multiply the result by 5 to represent 5 years.

That is how much you could have saved AND drawn interest on in just five years. That, my friend, is the very reason all of us need a budget.

If we can get control of the small expenses that really don’t matter to the overall scheme of our lives, we can enjoy financial success.

The little things really do count. Cutting what you spend on lunch from five dollars a day to three dollars a day on every work day in a five day work week saves $10 a week… $40 a month… $480 a year… $2400 in five years….plus interest.

See what I mean… it really IS the little things and you still eat lunch everyday AND that was only one place to save money in your daily living without doing without one thing you really need. There are a lot of places to cut expenses if you look for them.

Set some specific long term and short term goals. There are no wrong answers here. If it’s important to you, then it’s important period.

If you want to be able to make a down payment on a house, start a college fund for your kids, buy a sports car, take a vacation to Aruba… anything… then that is your goal and your reason to get a handle on your financial situation now.

Lottery Predicting with Dreams

Shortly after my first big win, I had a dream. I was standing in line at my favorite convenience store in New Port Richey, FL, when five numbers came up for Fantasy Five. The Lotto machine at the store actually "coughed them up" and a mechanical sounding voice read off the numbers while I was inside the store (in my dream). I awoke with a start, and scrambled to find a pen and something to write on in order to get the numbers down before they faded from memory. I went in and bought a 30 draw ticket with these numbers, and a few days later, four of the five numbers came in, and I was one number off from the other! If I had chosen 19 instead of 18, I would have won another $30,000!! I wasn't greedy, though- I was grateful for the extra money, and used most of it to buy groceries for a friend who was having a hard time paying the bills and keeping food in the house.

In his book 10,000 Dreams Interpreted, Gustavus Miller cites the long history of using dreams and their interpretation as a predictive tool. He quotes the Christian Bible: "In a dream, in a vision of the night, when deep sleep falleth upon men, in slumberings upon the bed; then he openeth the ears of men and sealeth their instruction that he may withdraw man from his purpose, and hide pride from man.'' --Job xxxiii., 15.

Tips to help YOU win, TOO!!

Here's what I did to pick the winning numbers in the Florida Lottery Fantasy Five:

I picked seven combinations of five numbers, and bought 30 days of each combination. The investment was $210. At that time, I had come into an inheritance, so I was blessed with the money to be able to do this. Only play what you can afford, do not bet your rent money or mortgage payment, or utility bill money. I had on me the four items that I mentioned on the first page of this web site. The blue dot from the National Enquirer and the astrological talisman were in my pockets. The High John the Conqueror root was secreted under my clothes, and the Low John root, also called Galangal, was in my cheek, much like a tobacco-chewer would secrete a pinch of tobacco.
The Alpha state of mind is also used as a predictive tool. It is a meditative state used in many Shamanistic rituals. When I picked my winning numbers the first time, I got my blank card and meditated on it, putting myself in Alpha. I did this with closed eyes. Then, I opened my eyes and looked for the numbers on the grid which seemed to be "vibrating" or "dancing".

I hope this helps you be a winner, too. For more info, please visit my web site:
