Toronto women win jackpot lottery

[Sithara007]

I hope they will use their winnings wisely. Are they still going to bet after this huge win? 

I have heard about a few cases, where the winners used the rewards wisely. But unfortunately, in the majority of the cases the jackpot winner wasted all that money in a matter of few years and was back to his previous state. Some time back, there was a program in CNBC which claimed that jackpot winners are much more likely than ordinary Americans to go break within 3-5 years after winning the jackpot. BTW, anyone has heard about Jack Whittaker?

This is called patience produces extraordinary results, it is not easy to keep placing bets at the same number for 20 years and finally this couple reaps the rewards of their patience, this amount of money is very sufficient even for retirement if they can manage finances wisely.

It is also called a gambler's fallacy, it is a type of fallacy where the people believe that streaks of unfortunate events or losses is just a road paved for an eventual success. I want to know how much money in total have they used for lottery tickets over the course of 20 years together with the inflation. I am pretty that it is a lot of money too. I hope that they wouldn't squander it on luxuries and other ephemeral things because that is a lot of money.

What about those guys who have spent a fortune on lottery tickets during the last 20-30 years and yet to win any sizeable reward? The individual mentioned here at least got lucky after trying for many decades. But we should not forget the fact that for every such individual, there are dozens out there who never get lucky. They spend all their savings on lottery tickets, only to end up broke.

But isn't that a little too crazy that they will still be playing lottery for over 20 years, that amount of money that they have wasted is still a lot. Relying on luck every day of your life is not the best thing to do in my opinion, everything is eventual. Those who spent a lot of money like this people could have used those money back then to support their life, maybe even use it to save money.

Not many gamblers can be patient until a long time to have a big win, and maybe some people will not do that or forget it. But that couple deserves their winning, and that winning really helps them in their ages, so they can get something that they really want for their lives. They can now retire and not doing anything because I guess money will not be their purpose to works, and they can live happily with their family and grandchildren. We can wish to have that big winning someday, so we can feel how if we are the winner.

Thats fucking 40% in tax and that man was robbed. National lotteries should be tax free just like here on my country where you wont really be paying up
for tax once you do hit up a lottery jackpot. All of those are tax-free and you will received the winning amount in full without any issues about deductions.
Turns out that their government was way too corrupt on getting 40% deduction on t he winning. Imagine on winning 1.6 and getting only 1M?
I will really be on rage if that do happens to me.Its unacceptable. Back to topic about winning the lottery then it do really require extreme or out of this world
luck if we do consider the odds of hitting it then its almost close to zero.

I agree but what can you do except to comply? After all if you win a lottery with that kind of jackpot then everyone is going to find out including the government so you have no option but to pay up, where I live the tax is not as outrageous but it is still 20% which is a significant amount of money, however there are other parts of the country in which you only need to pay a 10% tax and that is something that I find way more reasonable.

[acener]

I only try lottery for a few times but I stop and some of my friends try to tell me the percentage of winning in lottery is so small so they also think that it is a waste of money to keep on doing it,
But seeing that there are people who manage to win it for keeping on their lucky number for so long I don't think that it was a waste for them and congratulations for those who won.
I wonder how I would really spend it if I would won a huge jackpot like that it would really change my life completely.

[LogitechMouse]

quite surprised to hear the amount she won was $60 million.  in my country, this kind of money is enough to buy hundreds of mansions.  in the midst of this "PANDEMIC", their win is a great gift, but what amazed me was that they (her and her husband) always playing the same numbers for 20 years.

After playing the same lottery numbers for 20 years that came to her husband in a dream, a 57-year-old Toronto woman is $60 million richer.

Do any of you play the same trick as their (playing the same number always)??

The loyalty of the couple towards their number combination is insane. 20 Years of same combination and now it really paid of (I hope).

As for me, I might do the same too if only I'm betting in lottery. I just hope that the couple didn't spend the same amount of their winnings throughout the 20 years of betting in lottery and I think it doesn't . Only few and you can count maybe of the gamblers are like this that they are very loyal to the number combination that they will continuously bet on this numbers. They are impatient enough that they will pick any numbers that comes to their mind or that they see while picking numbers.

Pretty much it is great to buy a house and lot on a Pandemic because all, not necessarily things are all decreasing in value, cars, mobile devices, and even house and lots

This strategy could work if you have patients in it, I have known many friends that are using this kind of method they tend to use their Birthday of them and their family members to form numbers on the lottery and they keep on betting with those numbers so far they are winning out of 8 numbers they are winning 3 to 4 and people tend to do this they will not switch numbers because if that number could win it is an instant regret changing it to new ones.

[Betwrong]

Some Filipino bettors of Lotto do the same thing and usually, and I can hear a lot of people having a conversation like this that they are taking care of a number that they bet and when they change it, that number actually won. A lot of regrets but I think that is just a coincidence. This is her luck and I hope they could enjoy their dream with that huge amount of money, oh yeah, there's tax.

Of course,  that's just a coincidence, and there is no point in betting on the same number/numbers all the time. But, on the other hand, there's no point in changing the numbers either. Your probability of winning is always the same, so why not stick with the same numbers?

No one can beat the house except if it has the support of the gambling site team but what I was saying is that betting on the same number is risky cause it like saving money on the gambling site bankroll every day for when the moment of winning through those numbers arrive it usually come big just like what we see in the woman that won $60 Million.

It is absolutely as risky as betting on different numbers each time. Change my mind.

Nowadays, the winning numbers are picked by a computerized system, which makes sure that there is no bias with any of the combinations. So it is just pure luck and coincidence. Sticking with the same number or not is not going to change your luck. So rather than spending your valuable time in researching about the winning numbers, I would advise you to do your research on the odds of winning the jackpot. It will be different for different draws of the same lottery (based on rollovers and number of tickets sold).

Well, not all numbers are drawn an equal amount of times. I have learned this
from statistics from the Lotto of Ireland! I'm sure there are players who devise
their own plays and number combinations based on statistics.

I used to do pick the same numbers every week but for the last 10 years I
play a computerised pick, I let the computer pick the numbers for me.

I have checked the 6 numbers I used to play over the last 10 years and they
have never been picked in the Jackpot. The most I would have won over 10
years is €4 so i can deduce that the 6 numbers were not a popular combination.

I also picked 6 random numbers over the space of 5 seconds and with those
numbers I could have won €7 over 10 years.

Because of the combinations it really does come down to Luck,

I wonder by how much the odds change by studying the number drawn frequency?

Lottery hits cant really be influenced with those mathematical calculations, superstitious beliefs or whatsoever.This do definitely talks about pure luck.

If we do consider the odds on hitting a lottery then it is most close to impossible. Lottery system does have some several ways or set-up but overall the chances or odds
doesn't really change after all.

Sticking into your number wont really be giving you a slight advantage over others because every bet on every day basis would typically having the same odds.

Yes, I think it's purely because of the luck factor and there is a chance that the lady will trust the number and keep using the number until luck is on her side.
But besides luck, having the right information can also be used as a game strategy to randomize it with the numbers you already have.
But it's not as easy as it says and everyone will have the chance to win after experiencing several defeats and luck will be on those who don't give up easily and believe in what has been determined even though they have to go through obstacles and defeats.

The trick is not that bad but if we are going to sum up also their losses then I guess it will be very big amount also as they are betting for 20 years already. But in the other hand their time has come and their effort makes them a millionaire.

Being a millionaire at the age of 57 is still good, maybe someday I will try this kind of tactics and hoping to win some lottery also in the future and I will be hoping that it will not take 20 years to hit the correct winning combination.

*I hope your dreams come true...
as you said that their tricks are not bad but it takes a great deal of patience in order to imitate the tricks of the woman. 20 years is a very long period of waiting. that means she's put up the same number since 2000. what tremendous patience.

Not a trick because every round will really be just having the same odds for your number that had been chosen for you to win.Its just people who do make or think it as a sort of strategy.

Just like what others said above which i do definitely agree with those where there are no things that can affect your winning chance.The thing that really amazes me on how long
they've been betting and it do took 20 years to maintain a number combination? this isnt something that can someone to able to do so, not only on the money spent but also
on the persistence on sticking out on a single combination which does really require some serious discipline on one self.

Just like saving their money each time they've place their bet. The same number over  and over for 20 years of playing lottery. No one really knows when luck will hit you up.

This lucky couples are now capable of doing whatever money can buy, the chance of enjoying the rest of their life doing things that they've only imagine.

Only thing here is their health and security, they needed to manage to have a healthy life to enjoy the money to the max while also needed to protect their life as there are criminals who might haunt them knowing that they've got this huge amount of money.

Perhaps, she never thinks about how long she will keep buying the tickets to win the jackpot. But I don't think that playing on the same number since 20 years ago can also work for other people or not because the casino will rearrange all number in the lottery game. It needs 20 years to be the winner, and that woman finally won huge money.

If he wants to follow the tracks from that woman, he surely can do as long as he can still control his money and don't buy the tickets in a large amount because we never know how much money that woman used to buy the tickets. Who knows, he only needs a short time to hit the jackpot.

I had a lot to learn from Toronto women who won the $ 60 Million lottery jackpot. Because he managed to become a winner not because of
luck alone, but his patience should also be appreciated. Imagine her playing with the same strategy for 20 years, I think very few people have
the patience to do that. So it is very worthy in my opinion that the woman is the winner of the $ 60 Million lottery. Because I'm also not sure
I can be patient like these Toronto women.
