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.  :menace:

Reminds me of my computer programming teacher who hated the lotto and assigned us to write a program to calculate every possible combination of lottery numbers for the NY jackpot.

Program took almost two days to run to completion.    :pinch:
:lol: Combinatorics are fun.

I've gotten ... 0 numbers correct.  Hopefully my mom wil stop asking me to do something so deeply offensive to me as to by a lotto ticket.

It's 252 million now, think she won't want another.  :lmfao:

Some lucky guy won the 146.9 million Euro in Italy. If they have the same laws as here, that's even tax free.

...and that fucker isn't me  <_<

Yes, the money is completely tax free, moreover: the Treasury will take about 60 day to give him his money, and will calculate an interest rate on those 60 days, so effectively giving him 147 million euros PLUS 250.000 euros of interest  :lol:
