Lottery, again - 100 million euros

[The Larch]

A first draft list of what I will buy with my newly acquired wealth:

- a new car or two. Possibly with 400+ horses under the hood.
- a house in the Maldives. Or maybe the Maldives, complete with coral reef.
- Gisele Bundchen
- iTunes

I'd cut down on horses and put more hot girls in the list.

There are better things to do with hot girls than stuff them under the hood of your car.

Thanks, I have some bold new ideas for governing and improving public morality in Florence.   

This is going to end with a barbecue.

Sorry, she likes douchebags (Tom Brady), and since you ain't a douchebag, you don't have a shot.

With 120 millions in my pockets I can become a perfect douche! 

L.

Don't be a douche.

The Barbecue of the Vanities would be a good title for a novel.

I agree.  I expect a co-author credit and a joint appearance on Oprah.

I had a crazy math teacher in high school who, when examining someone on the probability calculus, would ask people if they play lottery, and fail them if they said yes. Those were the days.

As I believe I've stated before, state-run lotteries are my favorite government programs ever.

They turn worthless bums into tax collectors, and collect higher taxes from dumbasses thus allowing my taxes to be lower.

What is your policy on those who buy a ticket when the jackpot reaches 100+ million, just for shits and giggles?

Phrase your answer in haiku.

For €119 million, I could put out a lot of contracts on members who may or may not have posted in this very thread. 

But in order to win, we will, regretibly, be required to sacrifice you in various agonizingly painful ways to the infernal gods. Oh, the paradox of it all!

Under such an event, I would be sure to make certain arrangements as to the use of the funds first. 

[The Brain]

Chance of average person in an average job without special motivation or skills getting rich without buying lottery tickets = 0. Same thing WITH buying tickets >0.

With all the cash spent
on lotto tickets one can
buy gas station food.

An Austrian paper dished out tickets for the Italian lottery. I won one, but oddly they only sent me the information after the draw ... my guess: they check first if any of the tickets won anything and then sends out the "duds".
