Move to a commmunist country, pretend you are working as hard as everyone else, then sit back and watch the same amount of money roll in as your next door neighboor.

What dumbass lotteries have you been playing? Most states give out payments over the course of twenty years by default. Usually, the winner is also free to choose to be given a somewhat smaller (roughly half) lump sum immediately instead.

American lottories suck. In Canada, we get lump sums and, get this, winnings are TAX FREE!! That;s the way it should be, not, "you won $25 million from us (the gov't), but we are going to take back $13 million". WTF is up with that?

When's the last time a Canadian lotto hit $300+ Million Dollars?

The Single largest Lotto in Canada was $37.8 million. Last week the Powerball here in the states was $190 Million. That's about the norm and you see it top $100 Million all the time.
 

Sperm donations?

merican lottories suck. In Canada, we get lump sums and, get this, winnings are TAX FREE!! That;s the way it should be, not, "you won $25 million from us (the gov't), but we are going to take back $13 million". WTF is up with that?
Who wants to win the canadian lotto? So after you win, they hit you with huge luxury taxes, huge capital gains taxes etc.
You know less about your economic system than I do.

</moronic statement>

the state lottery system is a regressive education tax with a ludicrously low payout %. Don't even joke about paying into that racket.

Hehe, sad but true. A couple guys I know down at U of I donate platelets for money. The first time is 50 bucks, and every time after that is 30 bucks (if you're more than 180lbs and can donate the max amount). Just don't bleed for a day afterwards.

Indeed. I don't need the cattle or horses though, just dogs.

By placing tiny ads in newspapers all across the country. I did it, right out of my tiny one bedroom apartment. You can too!

Not to mention the potential health problems involved.
