    Planning 70 years ahead for a 30% per annum compounded return is a getting rich quick scheme in my book, so congrats if you succeed! 70 years... Really?!? Glad I don't have to look that far in the future. 5 to 10 years is all I care.

    Strange but true;
    many tech stocks went bankrupt in 2000. But QQQ/XLK went on to new highs after 80% drawdowns/+.Not a prediction/not bank insured...…………………………………………………………...

    It is not fake sir, I watched a PBS program on the same scheme some time back. Apparently the MA, etc. lottery systems had a flaw that allowed positive expectancy under certain conditions. Those guys found it and exploited to make millions. They finally plugged that hole in later years.

    This place is littered with fools, dreamers and the carcasses of losers. Pay them no mind...just do the work.

    Yeah, even before he finally got "busted" he had won so often that people were hounding him. Here is an "Inside Edition" story from 2011, where he was questioned and didn't tell the whole truth, just that he bought a lot of tickets so had to win something..

    Maybe it was "Inside Edition" that I watched. Getting old, memory is the second thing that goes. :)

    Had read somewhere that drug dealers offered double the winnings of any lotto tickets that was traded to them instead of going to the lottery people. Not sure if this is true or folklore...
