[Harvey Specter]

If I win the jackpot I will buy someone a Lambo or Ferrari on this forum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :haha:

On a serious note, how many tickets have you purchased? Do you do quick pick or do you pick your own numbers?

[q0192837465]

[silk]

^
1 9 28 37 46 5 ill give u name a try for the upcoming lottery pick

[wouwou]

^It would be pretty epic if those numbers turn out to be the winner.

[Eastwood]

I'm definitely buying tickets for this one.

F430 16M Scuderia here I come.

[Chairman Kaga]

My numbers are 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, & 42

[BNR32_Coupe]

i usually go with 1 ticket with random numbers. i figure if i was meant to win, i'll win with just 1 line of numbers.

btw to the guys above that posted your numbers, we'll be splitting the jackpot.

[penner2k]

If I win I'll buy joe45 a hooker..

[monkeywrench]

im going to buy RS and turn it into Rev chan.

[murd0c]

I always get the $20 jumbo pack seems the best value for your dollar

[wouwou]

If I win I'll buy joe45 a hooker..

not enough money to motivate the hooker

[wahyinghung]

I'' ll stick with buying a stake in the Canucks

[Gt-R R34]

I will buy everyone a 14$ Balla T-shirt.

[silk]

i will buy myself a good car alarm

[Ludepower]

I would hire chuck norris to be my bodyguard.

[ienhz]

i'd buy a civic and invest the rest

[oinkoinkpig]

I'd spend all my money on the next jackpot and keep $1

[Mr.HappySilp]

when is the jackpot? I might buy $10 on my way to work tomorrow.

If I win I will change $500k into pennies and dump it at my ex's bf =D.

[Zheff]

stop wasting ur money! I have the winning ticket!

[Durrann1984]

its tamoroww

btw i'm ur ex's bf LOL

jk

i just want the pennies

[woob]

I would buy a house on campus :(

[7seven]

I won like $67 and hit one extra # on the 649 over the weekend so I figure I'll throw $40 on this draw.

[hotjoint]

I usually spend $20 on any jackpot 30 mil and over, I just do quick pick

[EuroTRASH]

quick pick
just one ticket

way i see it, buying one ticket increases my chances of winning infinitely....no ticket, no chance at all

but buying $20 instead of $2 doesn't increase my chance of winning by any substantial amount.

If I win, I'm gonna piss away so much money on custom built, pointlessly useless cars.

ES250 + 4WD Camry floor pan + Celica All-Trac drivetrain for create a turbo AWD ES250

SC400 + IS-F drivetrain (because I have an SC400)

Nissan President converted into a pick-up, El Camino style. Why you ask? Because that would make it an El Presidenté...perhaps the best name for a car turned pickup ever?

[azzurro32]

Id get 365 girls, one girl a day.

Actually, 366, incase one of them is on their rag or pulls a muscle and cant perform on their given night.

[!SG]

if i win, ill put some business plans into motion.

better to be busy than bored...

[sil3nt]

buy a dozen honda fits and play bumper cars

[Alby]

anything over 20mil i buy one ticket with quick pick. heard chances of quick pick winning tickets have better odds than picking your own numbers.

[HonestTea]

lol?

[ImportPsycho]

if you put $50mil in bank... you would make 500k~600k yearly?
I dont think I'll be able to spend that much every year so the money can only grow LOL
how much tax would I pay on that interest income?

[danned]

7you guys have to promise7

[jack_dangerous]

always be nice to people who play lotto 649

[3seriesBeeM]

i would gtfo of van and bring my family and friends with me because if you win 49 mill you will discover that you have 500000000 family members that you never knew you had asking for money

[snowball]

I picked

1 2 3 4 5 6 and I have as much chance as any of you, lol.

[BNR32_Coupe]

I picked

1 2 3 4 5 6 and I have as much chance as any of you, lol.

the chances of 6 consecutive numbers are astronomically higher than 6 non-consecutive numbers.

gave you lotto advice, i'm entitled to at least 50% if you win

[Durrann1984]

oh shit is that you?? hey cousin how ya doing man
long no time no see

[europeeing]

can you buy tickets the day of the draw?

[no_mercy]

can you buy tickets the day of the draw?

yes just as long as its before 6pm on the draw date

there really is no value pack to 6/49... jumbo pack is just 9 lines with 2 extra

[pure.life]

can you buy tickets the day of the draw?

The deadline is 6PM.

[InvisibleSoul]

the chances of 6 consecutive numbers are astronomically higher than 6 non-consecutive numbers.

gave you lotto advice, i'm entitled to at least 50% if you win
Well, only because there are so few combinations of 6 consecutive numbers compared to non-consecutive numbers... but 1,2,3,4,5,6 has as much chance as any other six number combination, consecutive or not...

[ImportPsycho]

I picked

1 2 3 4 5 6 and I have as much chance as any of you, lol.

lol bad choices
even if that hits, theres about million ppl who play those same numbers just for 3 winning number = $10, so you'd be spliting the jackpot million ways

last year one of the winning number had 4~5 consecutive numbers from the back end. nobody won the jackpot but there was about thousands of 2nd place winners(5+ 1bonous). they only got paid one thousand each. usually, 2nd place pays 100k+

[slammer111]

Has 6/49 EVER gone past $49m?

Picked some random numbers over here. Usually I do Quick Pick.

Anyone know if they do the draws electronically now, or if they still use those balls in the air-powered machine?

Looks like I'm gonna be 49 mil richer by the end of the day :)

[syee]

If you're too busy/lazy to buy a ticket at a booth, you can always buy it online at bclc.com.

[hk20000]

I sincerely will lobby and push all agencies to help us make a race track in the GVRD area that can host some international racing. For public safety for city image for crying out loud for being an enthusiast I believe there is no better way to spend that money.

"You are gonna win"
.......
"I'm gonna win"

Er, the draw is Saturday.

saving interest rate is 1~1.3% yearly, how do you get 500k monthly?

[rsx]

i caved and I bought a ticket. damn it!

How often do BC players win anyway?

[wouwou]

saving interest rate is 1~1.3% yearly, how do you get 500k monthly?

you have 50 mils and you put it in a savings account for the default rate?

the bank will offer something better for that amount of money.

It is actually not hard at all to have half mills per month if you start with 50 mill :D

http://www.lotterypost.com/news/172517

It was five out of six numbers in a row, but only three consecutive: 23, 40, 41, 42, 44, 45

There weren't "thousands" of 5 plus bonus winners... but 239.

Each person won $1193.70. The total allocated to the 5 plus bonus pool was $285,000.

But actually, the WEIRDEST part of that draw?

The 5 plus bonus winners won LESS than 5 number winners that did NOT get the bonus.

http://www.bclc.com/app/DidYouWin/WinningNumbers/Lotto649.asp?YEAR=2008&MONTH=3&DRAW_DATE=19-MAR-2008&GAMEID=

5 numbers plus bonus: $1193.70
5 numbers: $2223.40

This is because they allocate a certain portion of the prize pool for the 5 plus bonus winners that all the winners have to share, but the 5 number payout is calculated individually, so regardless of how many 5 number winners there are, it wouldn't change their payout.

[!SG]

already get plenty of that...

however, ive always wanted to be in a rap video... u know, that fat guy sitting in the back of the yacht, drinking a flute of champagne, with women surrounding him for that 5 second video shot...

then i can finally say "AWWW YEAH, i was in a rap video!"


hahahhaa

Has 6/49 EVER gone past $49m?
The biggest ever was $54.3M back in 2005, but it was only estimated to be $40M. There were numerous factors that led to the jackpot being way over the estimated, but it won't be happening here.

Also, just three months ago for the February 21st, 2009 draw, the jackpot was $50.3M, and I think the estimated jackpot was $48M for that one.

[saucywoman]

I figured what the hell and signed up for some tickets. In todays paper there is a promocash code for registration on bclc.com for $5. Enter code "community".

[misteranswer]

This draw is sick. only ONE set of winning numbers.

A ticket sold in either Alberta, Saskatchewan, or Manitoba won $49,851,871

[TOPEC]

i wonder who that one lucky guy is.

[RiceIntegraRS]

I won $11.25

[Meowjin]

it says WC

doesn't it mean west Canada? which we are a part of?

[clowe]

eh...i broke even with mine, won my $10 back

[danned]

is it back in the days like billion in the draw?

[Harvey Specter]

Wow, one ticket eh.

[twitchyzero]

i thought they dont pay out the entire jackpot at once...they pay small chunks annually? and how much is the tax for 6/49 jackpots?

[Harvey Specter]

From what I understand your winnings will not be taxed like they are in the US, only thing you will be taxed on is the interest on your winnings when you put the money in the bank.

[HonestTea]

WHAT THE FUCK!

[death_blossom]

it says WC

doesn't it mean west Canada? which we are a part of?

WC indicates "Western Canada", which is the district that the WCLC (Western Canada Lottery Corporation) services. The WCLC services the prairie provinces only, not BC. If the winning ticket was issued in BC, it would say BC. :(

[misteranswer]

If the winning ticket was issued in BC, it would say BC. :(
Well, if you were looking at bclc.com, it would tell you which city or area the winning ticket was purchased at.

Looks like someone hit the extra too.

[7seven]

Apparently the winning ticket was sold in Edmonton

[hotjoint]

damn i spent $50 this month on lottery tickets, good thing someone won so I don't have to keep wasting my money :lol

[TOPEC]

i thought they dont pay out the entire jackpot at once...they pay small chunks annually? and how much is the tax for 6/49 jackpots?

i think i recall reading something abt this on bclc.com
if u take the whole chunk at once, u get less than the advertised amount (less than 80% of the pot)
vs
where as if u take it out monthly, u get the full amount (the full 80% of the pot).
something along the lines like that can't remember exactally.

[chinook79]

got 4 numbers... won 200 and change..
two numbers i got wrong... off by one.. :P
pretty close imo
almost said hello to vyron.. now hello fancy dinner :P

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

someone explain to me


i havent even check my tickets and today is thursday

how would they know or decide who or which province won???



i mean i havent checked it yet, doesnt that mean there are still chances for others to win until everyone checks their tickets?

how does this work>>??>>

:confused::confused::confused:

[TOPEC]

i'm sure they have a database that tracks all the tickets that were sold for the draw and the numbers u bought are registered
so they know how many of those tickets with the right numbers were sold
so appearently this draw there was only 1 ticket sold.
u can stop keeping ur hopes up now.
unless u flew over to al sas or man and bought the ticket there.

[hotjoint]

when the machine prints the ticket, it keeps track of the ticket # so they know which ticket has the matching #'s right away.

[7seven]

Lottery winnings in Canada are tax free if you take the lump sum at once as it is considered a win fall. If you take the winnings in monthly payments, you will be taxed because those payments would be considered as annuity payments.

The Lottery Commission knows exactly where the winning ticket is sold instantly, down to which store location and time as their computers track all the tickets sold and numbers selected. In the case of last nights draw, the ticket was sold in Edmonton.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

fuck now im pissed!!!

every single time we get large pot BC never wins


weak sauce shit
:mad:

[wouwou]

fuck now im pissed!!!

every single time we get large pot BC never wins

[TOPEC]

65% of the total winning draws r from ont
BC only gets arnd 12% of the winning draws.

[suprasian]

i also got 4 out of the 6. won over 200 bucks. i was one number away from 260 grand. i had 33 and 6/49 was 31.

$50M lottery ticket sold in Edmonton, but winner has yet to step forward
May, 21, 2009 - 02:47 pm THE CANADIAN PRESS
Bookmark

EDMONTON - There are reports that the winners of the $50-million Lotto 6-49 draw are a group of office workers at ATB Financial - Alberta's Crown-owned bank.

A employee who knows some of the winners says they are 13 people who work in the human resources department at ATB's office in downtown Edmonton.

An ATB spokesman declined comment and referred all calls to the Western Canada Lottery Corporation.

WCLC spokewoman Andrea Marantz also declined to confirm the winners, but has said the winning ticket was purchased in Edmonton.

It's not the first big lotto win by a group of Albertans.

In 2005, a record payout of $54.3 million was shared by 17 workers at a gas plant southeast of Edmonton, who stepped forward after 24 hours of non-stop partying.

The total payout on the winning ticket is $49,851,871.

5 out of 6 numbers doesn't get you 260 grand. I think it's somewhere closer to 2 grand. ;)
although, if it did, vegas would be on you. :D

[Manic!]

5 out of 6 numbers doesn't get you 260 grand. I think it's somewhere closer to 2 grand. ;)

5 out 6 including the bonus would get you $282297.50

[Harvey Specter]

$3.8 million each, not bad. It would have been nuts if lets say 2 people won or just 1 person.

[syee]

So 13 people in the HR dept at a bank won...so just for shits and giggles, that's the entire HR dept, and they all quit their job, who would they submit their resignation to? :D

Or...what would be even better, all 13 that were in submit their resignation to the people in the department that didn't buy into it. :D

[JesseBlue]

damn...office pool lost on 180 bucks...nothing in return...

[suprasian]

5 out of 6 numbers doesn't get you 260 grand. I think it's somewhere closer to 2 grand. ;)

lol yes with the bonus
and well i'd have to split that so i woulda only taken home 130 g's or so

[2damaxmr2]

booooo i thought i had the winning ticket :p

[StylinRed]

woulda been crazy if it was 1 person/family

got 3/4 numbers on the extra :/ lousy $1000 they should make the prize payout higher on that -_- 1 mo number and its 500k

[ctsport]

Lotteries are taxes for those who can't do math. :D

:confused::confused::confused:


every ticket sold, nation wide, gets into database
when numbers are drawn, they can check and see if winning ticket was sold and where it was sold

[Spec V]

a friend told me if u take the whole amount and put it in the bank you wont be taxed for the first year. but after that year u get taxed cuz of the interest u make from the bank.

[TOPEC]

a friend told me if u take the whole amount and put it in the bank you wont be taxed for the first year. but after that year u get taxed cuz of the interest u make from the bank.

yes as the earned interest is not part of the lottery winning pay out.
u get taxed in ur interest earnings dont u?

[skholla]

the payout will not be treated as income but any interest or capital gains made from the payout will be taxed as usual.

[hotjoint]

damn I thought 1 person won the entire 49 mil
