I like the math of this, and it'd be fun.

I'm in, but I think we should go out and buy for this sat draw, whatever the jackpot. $100 million among 100 shares is good enough for me.
 
I'm in. Tell me what to do.





.....I can use my EBT to pay, right? 😀

LOL they are using their EBT to pay, indirectly of course. The money that they have can be used to buy lottery tickets because the EBT will pay for food.

So our wonderful government run lottery system is being aided by our wonderful government run EBT system. Miraculously, both seem to be getting bigger and more successful. The state I live in has been bragging about how much money they've raised.
 
Man 190 is a tad low compared to the other ones. :/

I'd like to wait until this Saturday evening, then we'll have:

Saturday evening
Sunday all day
Monday all day
Tuesday all day
Wednesday until deadline (that Vivi will determine) drawing is around 5:59 PM-ish.

to spread the word and get more $$$.
 
Makes sense. So we have until Wednesday, or is that only if there's not a winner Saturday? I kinda wanna keep it just us original guys, but I get why we're not. 😛 We few, we proud, we band of brothers.
 
I don't want too many people. I want my monines for meee.

Can we ban everyone except the last drawing's pool?
 
We haven't ever won anything, nor do I think we will, but still the greed! exclusivity for bigger pot!

you guys crack me up, lets save our whining about our pittance of 1 million dollars until after we win.
 
So when I win the powerball and I post a picture of me holding the winning ticket on Sunday morning, how soon do you think RossMAN will come knocking on my door?
 
Vivi, your website's example isn't quite accurate.

It says someone purchases 4 shares ($10). Should be ($10/share x 4 = $40).

Also, purchase should be "purchased" 😛

LOL but the more people we sucker in, the more chances we have. Yes it will dilute your "winnings" but come on are we really going to win?

Wait, when do I have to pay by?

First we need to decide if we're going for the current or this Saturdays Powerbball?

After that's determined Vivi will choose a deadline.

So are you thinking the 8th drawing? I would be down for that ... give more people to buy in, since we have more money potentially... I can grab cash while the banks are open. I could also split it between two or three gas stations too....if that helps or not, shrug.

Yes.
