“Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?” is today’s lille4d of a previous TV show “The $64,000 Question” (1956 -1958). The contestant on each show in order to win the top prize would have to answer all the questions correctly.
Both these shows celebrate the ultimate winners as heroes. It wasn’t because the winners were rocket scientists, but they were as the American Experience (PBS) put it “a common person with an uncommon gift of knowledge”. At each level of the game as it got closer to the last question which carried the ultimate prize of either $64,000 or $1 Million the questions got harder and harder, and the final question seems to be the hardest.
Here’s a question that would be the last question for both shows….How to win the Lottery? In this case, a rocket scientist may be needed to figure out the answer to this question. Billions of people around the world would love to “know” the answer to this question. Wherever there is a multi-million dollar lottery, there are people looking for the answer to this question. The answer remains elusive.
The top three lotteries in this country are the Powerball, Mega Millions, and different State Lotteries which offer payouts in the multi-million dollar range from $2 Million to over $300 Million. The odds of winning these jackpots are Powerball over 195 million to 1, Mega Millions over 175 million to 1, and State Lotteries over 125 million to 1 chance that you will match exactly the winning drawn lottery numbers for that single draw on that particular night that you played the lottery – Pick 5 or Pick 6 lotteries.
The first thing a person would need is to have plenty of time. The research time alone would be in the hundreds of hours just to gather the data for the Pick 5 and Pick 6 lotteries. Then there is the time one needs to analyze the data for the Powerball, Mega Millions, and State Lotteries. Next, one needs time to create the formulas for the lottery numbers. More time is needed to test the formulas for consistency in all the lotteries. With the help of the computer one might save some time providing all the information about the lottery numbers that is entered into the computer is correct and all the information is correctly entered. But you get the picture. Answering the question “How To Win The Lottery” might just take a lifetime of work.
There are a handful of individuals who have put together a thumbnail sketch of some types of formulas that they claim will give lottery players an opportunity to increase their chances to win some of the prize monies if not the jackpot amount for the various lotteries. These individuals also have spent a good amount of time and work before releasing it in book form for lottery players to use for their benefit.
Most lottery players probably don’t take “the time and work” factor into consideration. They are only interested in the results or the answer to the question “How to Win the Lottery”. Millions of dollars are spent every year by lottery players around the world on Lottery Systems for the Pick 5 or Pick 6 lotteries that they hope will provide them with the correct formulas that will benefit them financially. Some of these Lottery Systems are not worth much based on their simplicity or lack of real solid researched information. Others have the research and study to back up their claims to produce winning opportunities for lottery players providing they learn to follow the lottery system correctly as the researcher and author designed it to work.
