NEW 106 Million jackpot And choose my raffle

Just got done with checking my ticket right now and not a single number matched up to my slip. Frustrating? You bet, I had a good feeling about it today just like every other day actually. I have the dreams of waking up one morning, waltzing downstairs to go online and check my ticket and have all my numbers match up and solve my worlds problems. It just doesn't work like that I guess. Correction, it hasn't worked like that YET. One day it will happen. O yes, it will happen. I can almost categorize what I plan on doing with the money. I am excited however that the jackpot has now reached over 100 million dollars!! 106 million to be exact. Thats just so much on my plate I hope a miracle happens and I win it all!!! Didn't quite buy my ticket yet, but i'll be sure to find one sooner or later this weekend.

The Michigan Millionaire Raffle is fast approaching and I'm gearing up to get my tickets! All 5 of them at $20 a pop. I am curious as to how exactly I should spread the tickets out.

Should I:
a - Buy all 5 at once?
b - Buy 4 and 1 at another store?
c - Buy 3 and 2 at another store?
d - Buy 2 at one store, 2 at another and 1 at the last?
e - Buy each ticket at different stores?

I'll go with whatever someone says I should go with, I'll be taking the tallies from my comments on this post as well as emails to canowicki@yahoo.com

Maybe I'll win $1000 with all 5 tickets, or maybe i'll win $5 mill!!! Or maybe a Mill and a $1000. But I'll be pissed if I win nothing. That's $100 down the drain. But like they say, somethings you just have to risk money to make money and there's nothing more risky then playing the lottery. It's not skill, it's pure luck. It takes a special kind of man to take that kind of risk and I'll do it for the entertainment of all you peoples out there reading this!

Michigan Millionaire Raffle

I haven't mentioned this yet, but a week or so ago Michigan has announced the sale of their Millionaire Raffle to start March 12, 2007. What is the Millionaire Raffle? Well they started it back in November 2006 where only 500,000 tickets were sold and a drawing was made to where:

5 people won a Million
10 people won $100,000
700 won $1,000

Quoting www.michigan.gov/lottery

"Citing the overwhelming response to the first raffle, Lottery Commissioner Gary Peters said the March game will offer 600,000 tickets at $20 each. The increased number of tickets for sale in the second Millionaire Raffle gives players a chance at more prizes. This raffle will feature six $1 million prizes, 12, $100,000 prizes, and 900, prizes of $1,000 each. Overall odds for winning a raffle prize are 1:654."

Wahoo!! That's all that came out of my mouth when I first heard that. The March game will begin the 12th and for all of you looking for the best odds around, this is the game to play. With a steep $20 ticket price, it's well worth the chance for a million dollars. Will your good buddy Cliff be playing this raffle? You know it! In fact, I'll be "investing" in 5 tickets making my overall odds of winning

$1,000,000 - 1:20,000
$100,000 - 1:10,000
$1,000 - 1:133
Winning anything: 130.8

I love those odds. A small investment of only $100. Will I be crazy enough to do it? You know what I think I just might be crazy enough to do it and i'll let all of you know how much I wind up making on this venture!!!
