Hi All!

I was wondering what is the most you've ever won? The most for me was $250 on a scratch off and that was about 25 years ago.

My ex-husband's niece won $5 million dollars in the Texas lottery. That was probably 22 years ago. She was in her twenties and blew through it unfortunately. By the tale end she started trying to produce plays but it was too late, she was broke.

The moral of that story is that people win! That is the only reason I keep trying lol! How about you guys?

3 grand, and i took home 3 grand......lol

984 was the winning number. Six times straight....

Great topic and lesson as well.

In Tropicana casino AC I won $4002 amt on a royal flush slot machine. This was my sisters bday of all days back in 2001. I really wanted to play the fortune dome which is the dumbest thing ever.

Well I approached my dad who was a tax acct(retired from the Phila Intl Airport in 2 yrs) and showed him my w2g form. He didn't believe me either. He told me to save $1100 for taxes which I did. The casinos at the time I believe will do a check if it's more.

A yr later the same time frame my cousin won $20500 down in Delaware Park when my cousin and my uncle went to purchase cheap cigarettes. My aunt didn't believe him at all untill she seen the proof. They took $5200 I think from my cousin taxes withheld ouch.

So to this day me and my cousin are big winners. My gma on my dads side back in the 70s-80s not sure how much she would win but all the gparents would go down.

Years ago I am not sure about how different finances were, lawyer, acct, etc. If you blow money away there is something wrong.

Do expenses and yes pay things off that you want to get rid of like the mortgage, auto ins, etc. Don't let your friends borrow money.

$100, on December 29, 2009, with Virginia's Pick-3 Boost.

It would have been $500 if I had remembered to buy a ticket for the evening drawing of March 29, 2005 ...

Today's winning 3-ball is going to be a number between 000 and 999.

In a lot of states, lotteries benefit education. That makes the REAL winners the only people who can't play!
