I felt the Holy Ghost today - Bought a Powerball ticket ;)

I've been thinking now that I am out one of these days I needed to try a gamble just to say I could. Of course, I know the odds are terrible so I put it off. Well today I felt that burning in my bosom and I bought myself two tickets. LOL I'm such a sinner ;)

I'm going to win, so you wasted your money.

My burning bosom trumps yours.

Oh well, my numbers weren't even close.

It shows not to trust feelings.

I just know I will lose. No hope for winning. BUT it would be nice to win.

Well, I didn't win and if I believed in a deity I would be very angry at it right now.

I'm going to go cry myself to sleep now.

And the winning numbers are ---

05, 16, 22, 23, 29, and Powerball 6. One winning ticket was sold in Arizona, a second winner was sold in Missouri. The take home amount after taxes will be about $180 million for each winner.

I didn't buy any tickets and I am happy that I still have my $10 in my pocket (when I play Powerball I usually buy 5 tickets for $10). I can use it for breakfast at the local eatery.

Powerball tickets are only two dollars a piece. You are thinking of scratch off tickets.

No, the poster says they buy 5 tickets for 10 dollars -- two dollars apiece it is!

And I only buy one ticket because I'm like that. ;)

I also get 5 numbers for $10.
Its kind of a let down to think from 500k you only get 180K. Still its better then $10. I live in AZ :)
