You are more likely to go bankrupt winning the lottery than you are filthy rich.
largest winner in this article won 16 mill - lot different than taking home close to 200 mil.

The only thing different is it takes longer for stupid people to blow 200 million than it does 16 million. It'll happen eventually.

I won't disagree with this. A lot of stupid people win the lottery and blow it. A smart person winning the lottery would be set for life. Their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, etc, would also be set for life with a jackpot like this.

A smart person wouldn't play the lottery.

It would be cool to set up a vCash lottery system. I will look in to it for the future. I have to completely rewrite the vCash/vBookie system for the new site so I could add this in pretty easily.

Unless Con_Alma admits he has bought or will buy a lottery ticket in the future, you are wrong.

When I win, can I buy Sleepers McDonalds, then eat a Big Mac, then burn it to the ground, then shoot him in the head, then shit the Big Mac out onto his chest?

Shitting on someone's chest is vulgar. Just piss on the corpse.

Depending on what your offer is, I'm sure my business partner and I would consider it. As far as the latter, I would press charges to the fullest extent of the law.

Can a dead guy press charges? Do you even need to press charges in a murder case? Please help.

Hopefully with that kind of money, he can find a way to the Deep Web and find one of those assassination sites to get the job done, no risk style.
