You have to be in it to win it.

Everyone has heard the saying that you have to be in it to win it. Well, with the powerball over $100,000,000 I decided now was the time to get involved. I called a co-worker in DC and ordered up $10 worth of powerball tickets. With 10 tickets and 6 numbers on each ticket I was sure to win something.

Unfortunately, out of the 60 numbers (actually 38 unique numbers), I matched 3 of them. Early retirement will have to wait. It amazing though, how the simple thought of winning the lottery can brighten your day. Hopefully there won't be any winners and I can play again for the Saturday drawing.

I certainly know the hope of big winnings. Low risk - High reward. I missed the 320 million dollar powerball myself. Mega Millions is large as well.
