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 liked my idea - but stop me if you must;)
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.
Doing that too;)
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 I win a couple million FR will get those new servers. :)
If everyone who frequents FR donated $5 per month on automatic pay we would never see another Freep-a-thon.
That’s the spirit.
I got five numbers for each. Will FReepmail JR so he can keep me honest;) LOL!!!!!!!!
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.
Good Luck! I buy a ticket or two once in a while instead of buying a Soda.....I could have some fun with that kind of money..LOL!
