In 2006 Nebraska lottery officials, bragged about, the biggest lottery winner ever. “Someone, somewhere held the only winning ticket for the record $365 million Powerball jackpot but likely wasn’t in a rush to come forward”

We’re talking about a lottery of a whopping $365 Million dollars, (Yeah I know, the weekly lottery dwarf this amount, Now). What do you think the chances of winning were? If you bought a ticket, you had 1 chance in 146.1 million. Not what you call, the best odds.

Did you get lucky and win this jackpot of money? At those odds it highly unlikely.

Amazingly, with these seamlessly impossible odds, millions of people still believed that they had a chance to win. A record number of people bought lottery tickets hoping to win. As no one picked the right numbers, this lottery just keep jackpotting.

Eventually someone would win this pot of gold. GOOD LUCK

If you think, those odds suck, then how about trying your luck at the Casino

Maybe you think those odds look tempting.

What if I was giving you the odds of 1 in 3. Are the numbers starting to tantalize. "I've gota a shot at winning"?

If you’re given the chance of 1 in 3 to win. How much would you bet? $1000.00, $10,000 or maybe a lazy million.

Gambling on odds of 1 in 3, would be incredible. Accept these are the staggering odds, of us suffering a heart attack and dying.

Cardiovascular Disease accounted for 37.3 percent of all deaths, or One every 2.7 in the United States in 2003.* That’s 1,408,000 people who were killed by this silent epidemic.
