A friend won $1,000,000 in Powerball Jackpot!
« on: May 14, 2013, 05:32:43 am »
A friend of mine won $1,000,000 in the Powerball drawing last Saturday!  My husband had 4 numbers and won $100.  If he would have had an 8 instead of a 6, he would have won $1,000,000, also.  I'm happy for Timmy!  He has worked hard all of his life to take care of his family.  Now he can enjoy a few big boy toys of his own!
Have a wonderful day!

That's great.  I usually use 8 anyway; the numbers used are 0, 1, 2, 8, and 9.  I am glad that someone managed to win the Powerball.  I used to play it when I lived in Chicago; I only won a dollar.  I live in Mississippi now, where there is no lottery.  My daughter moved to Marietta, GA last year.  I will send her some money to play for me. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

That's amazing! Be sure to remind him that money and material possessions don't bring happiness. Remind him that the best feeling in the world is to give back to those who need.

Google is your friend. You can find me there. Can I find you there?

How wonderful for your friend.  I hope he doesn't blow it all though.  I knew someone that won the Ohio lottery twice some years ago and just went right through it.

  Good for your friend, hope he talks to someone who know how to handle money, so he will have a cushion for a long time to come, now just blow all at once.  Bet he has "friends" and "relatives" coming out of the woodwork he never saw before.  LOL   :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I wish I could earn $1,000.000.00 from all of the online activities that I am engaged in. But I will settle on the goal I'm working towards of making $100.00 a day. I'm still a long way from that.
