Five hundred and fifty-three million bucks worth of jackpot heaven!

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012

A passenger train is creeping along, slowly; finally it creaks to a halt. A passenger sees the conductor walking by outside. “What’s going on?” she yells out the window. “Cow on the track!” replies the conductor. Ten minutes later, the train resumes its slow pace. Within five minutes, however, it stops again – the woman sees the same conductor walk by again. She leans out the window and yells, “What happened – did we catch up with the cow again?”

A slow train is definitely not the best way to describe the mouth-watering lottery rollover jackpots lining up for kick-off over the next three days. Later today, there’s Super Enalotto: jackpot SEVENTY EIGHT MILLION; tomorrow there’s EuroMillions: jackpot FIFTY-NINE MILLION and Mega Millions: jackpot TWENTY-THREE MILLION; on Saturday there’s Powerball: jackpot TWO HUNDRED MILLION; Indiana Hoosier: Jackpot THIRTY-TWO MILLION; Brazil’s Mega Sena: Jackpot TWENTY-SIX MILLION; German Lotto: Jackpot TWENTY-FIVE MILLION and the next Spanish Millionaire Raffle with a ONE HUNDRED and TEN MILLION jackpot!

That little lot added together makes a grand total of FIVE HUNDRED and FIFTY-THREE MILLION greenbacks from just 8 lottery games. Over HALF A BILLION bucks; that’s pretty serious wedge by anyone’s book and might be almost enough to put a smile on your bank manager’s face (I did say ALMOST)!

Now the only similarity between the slow train and a life changing lottery win is you need a ticket for both. The good news is you don’t have to look all over the place to find out where to buy one – if you’re reading this you’re already found the place, right here at WinTrillions – just follow the links and you’re sure to be on the train – win all of the jackpots and you can BUY the train!

Powerball Jackpot on the up and up – now reaches one hundred and seventy million dollars!

Monday, January 30th, 2012

Divination is the art of foretelling the future or the discovery of hidden knowledge usually by the interpretation of omens or by the aid of supernatural powers. Just in case you reckon you need all the help you can get to pick a lottery winning line and feel that divination might be the next best thing since sliced bread, here’s a few methods you might like to try!

Toss a coin, throw dice, pick cards from a playing card deck; even bibliomancy. This is the system of using your favourite book or even the Bible to pick your numbers – the method is simple – just open the book to any page and then use numbers found on that page. Bernie Bobowicz of Clifton, New Jersey was going through his mother’s old Bible and saw some numbers. Then he got a funny feeling — a voice inside telling him to play those numbers. He won $7 million in the New York Lotto.

Unfortunately divination didn’t seem to help any Powerball players over the weekend as nobody matched 5 – 33 – 41 – 54 – 59 and Powerball 13 or they would now be $120 million richer; that said 3 players did grab ONE MILLION bucks each by matching 5 mains and another 37 players raked in TEN grand apiece by matching 4 mains and the Powerball.

No outright winner means only one thing – another rollover! The next Powerball draw will be played on Wednesday Feb, 1 and to whet your appetite for divination the jackpot has now climbed to ONE HUNDRED and SEVENTY MILLION dollars ($170,000,000) now that’s enough to cover your stay at the brand new Shahi Mahal Presidential Suite at Raj Palace, Jaipur, India for the next 4,250 nights (food extra)!

The only drawback to making your reservation at the Shahi Mahal is you probably need to win the jackpot first and to win that – you’ll need a ticket; however you don’t have to be a divination guru to know that you can buy your ticket for the next Powerball draw from right here at WinTrillions where you can also buy tickets for many other of the world’s biggest and richest lotteries!

Winning Lottery Jackpots – It’s in our DNA!

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

Here’s something to get you thinking: if you lose a hundred bucks you’ll probably feel a bit hacked off; however should you WIN a hundred you’ll no doubt feel pretty good! Now the problem is this; if you’ve just lost the $100 the feelings you have about losing it, hack you off TWICE AS MUCH as any excitement you feel from winning the $100! Is that heavy, or what? This phenomenon is known universally as “loss aversion!”

Still need to be convinced? Toss a coin – heads you win a $100; tails you lose a $100. If you’re not comfortable with a straight 50 / 50, win / lose choice, then decide the biggest amount you ARE comfortable losing? To measure your degree of loss aversion, just divide $100 by your chosen amount.

Now that’s pretty much what we do whenever we decide to buy a lottery ticket, except we don’t do it scientifically! Most of us would probably be very uncomfortable about buying one million greenbacks worth of lottery tickets on the possibility of winning a multi-million jackpot, always assuming you had a spare million in the first place, but will quite readily spend one dollar on a lottery ticket to win the same jackpot, simply because one dollar is what we ARE comfortable with. Sociologists and anthropologists reckon loss aversion has helped humans survive in earlier environments, when the opportunity for gain by hunting down mega-beasts to eat was perceived to be far greater that any potential danger arising from the hunt itself!

So there we have it – if ever proof was needed – playing the lottery is obviously in our human DNA – so what are you waiting for? Never mind “mega-beasts” there are some “mega-million” jackpots up for grabs this very week, including Powerball, Super Enalotto, Indiana Hoosier, and EuroMillions with a collective total of TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHT SEVEN MILLION dollars between them, and that’s just from 4 lotteries – the only requisite is a ticket and you can get one of those right here at WinTrillions, where you can play the world’s biggest and richest lotteries, without ever leaving your personal comfort zone or having to hunt down or be eaten by a mega-beast!
