A very lucky single bet


A religious lotto bettor says ..... one bet will do.

If he wants to make me a millionaire overnight, He’d give it to me even if I only have one bet.

Many lotto bettors have won the jackpot with only one bet and that has been proven many times.


It was a 1-in-29 million shot and all it took to win it all was a P20 bet.

One lucky bettor won the P163.92-million jackpot prize in Wednesday night’s 6/55 Grand Lotto draw—five months after the jackpot was last won.

The lone bettor from Luzon hit the winning combination of  10-26-32-36-37-49.

The lone winner placed a single bet of P20 on the maintained numbers at a lotto outlet in Sorsogon City in Bicol.

Just Imagine one single bet worth P20.

Twelve other bettors will each receive a consolation prize of P150,000  for hitting five of the six-digit combination.

Another 1,226 bettors won P2,000 each for getting four numbers correct, while 32,662 others can claim P150 each for guessing three numbers right.




28.9 million combinations


Experts in the game of chance say winning the Grand Lotto is difficult because of the sheer number of combinations that bettors can choose from.

Out of the total possible 28.9 million combinations in a 6/55 game, bettors normally put money on only about 25 percent of those combinations, according to authorities familiar with how the lottery works.

That means that 75 percent of the combinations do not have even a single bet on them.
It would take a person about P580 million to bet on all the possible combinations.

The sheer size of the odds is the main reason only a fraction of possible combinations is picked by bettors, leading to higher jackpots in the successive draws.


Did you know ......


Last February 15, 2012,  two bettors won the  6/55 P300.15 million jackpot after both correctly guessed the winning combination of 10-11-14-16-20-28.

Strangely, neither of the two winners has collected their prizes, according to PCSO records.

The winning combination in that February draw was picked in one ticket bought in Hinunangan, Southern Leyte, and in another ticket bought in Taytay, Rizal.

If you don't play, you can't win




Grand lotto 6/55
Draw date: 7/4/2012
Expected Jackpot Prize P160 million


Thousands of lotto bettors are going to start buying the 6/55 lotto tickets starting today with big dreams,
 so expect long lines for a shot at the fortune.

The draw will take place tomorrow night  and  P160 million is at stake.

The odds of winning are slim, 1 in 28,989,675 combinations.
But everybody has  a good  shot as anyone else.

The odds are best when you have more tickets.

But as far as I'm concerned, the odds doesn't  matter to me even if I have only 3  tickets with me.

Because I have my luck and faith with me.

As the saying goes "if you don't play, you can't win." 


 Advice ......just in case you are the lucky winner.


Accepting the fact that you are the lucky winner. Most of the time, you who accept windfalls still live in a subconscious part of your brain that tells you everything is a dream. Because of this, you spend your money like there’s no tomorrow. just like Mr. Dionie Reyes who won P14 million and spend it for 3 months.

 Later on, you realize that you have spent all the money on useless things without even realizing it—this is about the time you wake up. If you don’t want this to happen to you, you have to know how you can make smart choices with the sudden money you have received. so better have a plan always ready.


Remember,  
It is up to you on how you control yourself. Always keep in mind that you do not need to change your lifestyle quickly just because you have received a lot of money. Instead, consider yourself as a quiet millionaire and  this is the best thing you can do with a windfall.


But  if you don't win this one, remember there's always another shot in other big future lotto draws.

As my friend who always say's .......  there's always a next time.


Good luck to all.

P100 million in unclaimed prizes



After all we Filipino's are not that poor. just imagine that almost a P100 million worth of winning lotto tickets were not claimed by the lotto winners.

This action was taken after the one-year period to claim the winnings expired .


The unclaimed winnings included both minor and  major prizes of the 6/42 Lotto, 6/45 Mega Lotto, 6/49 Super Lotto and 6/55 Grand Lotto games.

Four youngest Facebook Billionaire


 1. Mark Zuckerberg
 
 
  
 Zuckerberg, 28, launched Facebook from his college dorm room and grew it into one of the world's most successful businesses. While his wealth has taken a big hit following Facebook's disappointing IPO, he's still worth close to $15 billion, according to public estimates.


 2. Sean Parker

 
 
 The co-founder of Napster (and first president of Facebook) has more than $2 billion to his name. Parker, 32, served as a mentor to Zuckerberg and famously urged him to drop the "the" in the original version of Facebook's name. He was also an early investor in Spotify, the music sharing company.



 3. Eduardo Saverin


 

 This co-founder of Facebook, now worth an estimated $2 billion, had to fight for that title: He sued Facebook and later agreed to a settlement, as depicted in the movie The Social Network. Saverin, 30, who grew up in a wealthy family, has a reputation for enjoying the good life and racking up large bar tabs.


4. Dustin Moskovitz




Moskovitz, 28, also knew Zuckerberg from college and worked on Facebook in its early stages. He has since left Facebook to pursue a new start-up, along with charitable work. Forbes estimates his net worth at around $3.5 billion.

A lotto millionaire story





As of today June 1, 2012 Friday the Jackpot prize of 6/45 is estimated to reach P33 million and the draw is today.

The lotto jackpot prize of 6/55 is estimated to reach  P55 million tomorrow.

The lotto jackpot prize of 6/49 is estimated to reach  P 75 million by Sunday's draw.

This will take a time again to have 3 straight big draws.

As of Yesterday the 6/42 draw with a jackpot prize of P12 million has been won already and this is going to be a winners week for 2 to 3 jackpot draws.

Now my advice to all is, bet all this draws with 2 bets each with 1 chosen number combinations and add 1 lucky pick bet.

I hope this time my fellow lotto bettors this is it for you and you better believe it this time.


While searching for some lotto news I found a story that being a  lotto winner sometimes comes with a burden.



Sarah Myers is alone.

She lost most of her friends and family. Her ability to trust.
All because of one ticket. One $23 million ( 966 million pesos) Powerball ticket.
“I’m never treated like a person any more. I hate that,” Myers said, her voice cracking. “To most people, I’m a bank.”

Winning the lotto, many players believe, would be the best thing to ever happen to them. To suddenly find yourself living a life of luxury, with no more worries about bills. New cars, new houses, trips, leisure.

But as those little white lotto balls pop from the tumbler, most players aren’t thinking about  the warnings.
People will call looking for money. Your friends and family, attorneys, charity groups, financial planners, lawyers. Relatives you never even knew you had will come forward.

Your mail box will fill with requests from strangers — some with sick family members, others just plain desperate or greedy — all wanting a piece of your winnings.


The truth is, very few lotto players think they will actually win the jackpot.  so finding yourself suddenly rich is always shocking to some degree.

“The reason it’s popular and fun because it allows people to dream about what that will be like, “That’s what the buck or two is buying you — that great feeling, and the chance to win money.”


It was a “miracle” when Sarah Myers won.

Once a factory worker living paycheck to paycheck, Myers and her husband were instant millionaires.

They built a dream home from them and their three children. Myers and her husband each got a new Dodge.
And they gave a lot of the money away. Some went to the Salvation Army. Some went to Amish neighbors. Some went to the eight children she sponsors overseas.

But the more money Myers gave away, the more friends and family she seemed to lose. Extended family members kept asking for money. She helped many: Myers bought about 20 cars and handed out more money over the years.

But if she questioned someone’s need or said no, she often lost that person from her life.
People around the winners change, . “People are in awe of winning that kind of money,.

Despite winning the lotto, Myers kept her job at the factory to stay grounded. But her co-workers told her she was stealing a job from someone else who needed it. 

“Sometimes you feel like you’re all alone. It’s sad, “Family is the worst because they know how to get you. ... They see I feel alone, and they take advantage of that.”
She eventually quit the factory and stayed on part-time at a gas station.

The money came in especially handy the next year when she was diagnosed with cervical cancer and given a grim prognosis. She’s been in remission but quit working.

Then her husband was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
When families get sick, neighbors reach out to help. But with Myers, many expected payment for their good deeds.

Still, after all the lost friends and family, she’s glad she had the winning ticket.

“It’s almost like everyone around you is taking a truth pill, “You find out who is really a friend and who is a family. You find out who looks at you like a person and not a bank. It’s nice to know, but it’s hurtful.”
