LOL...same here. I figure that if I'm meant to win something like that, God would tell me to go buy the ticket. So far, hasn't happened.
Well, God, that’s $462 million of which I’d give You half which would be $231 million. Then I’d take out the $115 million in federal taxes (that’s all out of my half, Lord), that leaves me with $116 million for myself (since there’s no state income tax where I live). I think I would have been quite satisfied with that. In fact, I probably would be satisfied with even $5 million for myself so I could give the rest to family, friends, that cute waitress where I eat, the lady who cuts my hair, etc.
But, Lord, I am saved and your grace is sufficient for me. But just in case you ever want to do the math on letting me win the Lottery, dear Lord, this is what it would have looked like.
now is the time to buy a ticket for tues drawing w/ 2,4,23,38,46 and 23. slip that ticket in w/ fridays and watch the fun when 1 person in the office pool finds it.
Lord, let me prove to you that winning the lottery won’t spoil me. LOL
You must really be an optimist to think that someone in Baltimore County is likely to "use the money for good!"
