On my way to buy some Mega Millions ($61million jackpot) and PowerBall ($50million) lottery tickets.

Not a gambler - but pledging to pay for the next FReepathon if I win;)

If y'all do the same - the odds of a FReeper winning will be a force multiplier. Do the math;) LOL!!!

Wish me luck

I hope this does not violate any FR rules.

Playing the lottery? Might as well burn a dollar bill and hope the carbon remnants turn into a diamond. Why not give directly, the odds are better.

I’m the same way. I’m not a gambler but if God gives me a sign to play, I’ll play and do some real good with the money along the way.

I play occasionally and don't win lol. Seriously though isn't there a freepothon every time I turn around? It grows tiresome.

If a freeper won that kind of money, freepathons could be done away with completely. Just dividing among family and a small part for FR.

If everyone who frequents FR donated $5 per month on automatic pay we would never see another Freep-a-thon.

I love the idea, Sodpoodle. I have thought of it myself. If I won the big lottery, I just think it would be cool to write out a cashier’s check to FR in the full amount for the freepathon. Jim could stick the money in reserve for a rainy FReeper day or use it for the quarter. I think I would get more joy out of it than him.
