If you know me, you know that I do not consider myself to be a 'gambler'.

I say this despite the fact that I spend quite a bit of money each week of lottery tickets.

What I mean is that I will almost never play poker, blackjack, slot machines.  If I am going to spend money on a game of chance it is going to be on a game where I can win life-changing money.

I don't want to win $100 or $1,000 (not that I would turn it down).  I want to win enough cash that it will allow me to make changes to how I live my life.  I'd never quit my job/career, but I would definitely focus on different things.  I'd also make some sizable charitable donations.  Oh yeah, I'd definitely upgrade my 5-year-old smartphone.

It looks like another New Englander has won life-changing money in the Powerball

 

 

A $2 Million Winning Powerball Ticket Was Sold in Massachusetts

According to the Powerball website, a ticket worth $2 million was sold for the July 30th drawing.

While we are not sure what business sold the ticket, we do know that it was sold in Massachusetts.  If you have been to MA recently, maybe you are the person who purchased it.

The winning numbers from that drawing were 4-15-35-50-64 PB: 8.

No one won the jackpot, so the jackpot for Saturday's drawing sits at $410 million.

Please play responsibly and if you feel that you have a gambling problem, you can call 211 for help.
