Need Advice. How to win TOTO/LOTO 649

Sinkiestan maximum is TOTO HongBao Draw, $10M
 
Sinkiestan maximum is TOTO HongBao Draw, $10M
Yeah lor.

Lotto 649 is exact same.

6 numbers 01 to 49.

Same as Toto.

But the prize money is usually around $5m at least. Then if no one win carried over.

So bigger country the lottery prize also bigger. Size matters
 
So does HOPE.
Fortune almost always favours the rich when it comes to 4D. Not aware if the same is true for Toto. The rich have the means to bet big and need not skip numbers. The latter is telling because the numbers dropped have a strange tendency to appear as winning numbers!

Last Jan to Mar I struck 1st and 3rd. On 1/1/20, 6292 came out 3rd and in Feb or March, 1115 came out first. But they were small bets. Big bets went down longkang.
 
So you see.....the source of the money has implications.

I think once there is any exchange of money there is some sort of "business transaction" whether or not there are any conditions attached or if it is a donation etc.

This is why money laundering is still a thing. It serves the function of cleaning the money off the implications.

you jumped to a conclusion too early
you should have asked the imam of any mosque your question, then heard his answer, then come back and write your concluding remarks.
 
A light-hearted look at lottery simpsons style :biggrin: :biggrin:

What Are the Odds of Winning the Lottery?​

How to Improve Your Luck​

More than a third of Americans believe winning the lottery is the only way they will ever retire comfortably. But the odds of winning either the Powerball or Mega Millions are roughly 1 in 292.2 million and 1 in 302.5 million, respectively.12

Compare these odds to some other unlikely scenarios and consider whether there might be a more foolproof way to cement your financial future. Strategies that are more likely to win you a bountiful retirement don't depend on blind luck—just discipline.


Things That Are More Likely Than Winning the Lottery​

Just how likely is it that you'll hit it big in the lottery? Well, the odds are much worse than the probability of your death as a result of one of these:

  • Plane crash: 11 million to one3
  • Car accident: 106 to one4
  • Falling out of bed: 2 million to one5
  • Flesh-eating bacteria: 1 million to one6
  • Lightning strike: 1.2 million to one7
  • Dog mauling: 118,776 to one4
  • Snakebite: 50 million to one8
  • Shark attack: 3.75 million to one9

Turns out swimming with the sharks is safer than petting a dog, driving your car, or sleeping in your bed.

If these statistics have you feeling a little paranoid, cheer up. Many good things are also more likely to happen than winning the lottery. For example, the odds of getting a royal flush in the first hand of poker are just 649,739 to one.6

To put it all into perspective, consider this. Scientists calculated in 2004 that there was a 60-to-one chance that asteroid 2004 MN4 would strike the Earth on April 13, 2029. The asteroid is about a quarter-mile wide—larger than the asteroid that carved out Meteor Crater in Arizona.10 And it was still more likely to hit the planet than you were to hit the jackpot.

Fortunately for Earth-dwellers, scientists revised their predictions for the asteroid; it's no longer predicted to hit Earth at all, just skim very close.11 Your chances of winning the lottery are equally as slim.


How to Improve Your Odds of Winning​

If you've read all these statistics, and still want to play the lottery, here are some ways to improve your chances. First, use the computer-generated numbers because they tend to be the luckiest, and there is less chance of someone else picking a duplicate number. Whatever you do, don't pick "lucky" seven, 11, or a birthday; you can be sure that someone else will have also picked those numbers.

Also, be sure to play the $1 million or $2 million second prize in the Powerball, where you only have to match five of the six numbers. Those odds are one out of 11.6 million.1 You get even better odds if you just play in the state lotteries instead of the national one.


How to Improve Your Chances of Attaining Retirement​

If you are one of those who consider the lottery their best chance of retiring, consider this comparison instead: Let's say you buy a $2 lottery ticket every week for 20 years. There is little likelihood, based on the odds, that you would have won.

If you instead invested that $2 a week in securities and got a 5% return, you would have accumulated $3,528. It may not sound like much, but if you invested $2 a day instead, you would wind up with $24,663 after 20 years. The average stock market return is 10% a year; if you got that rate of return over 20 years, then your $2 a day would become $43,721.12
That may not be enough to retire on, but if you increased it to $5 a day, you'd wind up with $109,283. $10 a day would get you $218,553. Now you're talking.


The point is that you do have better odds for a successful retirement if you plan for it than by playing the lottery. You don't have to depend on fate, chance, or luck. You can take matters into your own hands, starting today.
Winning lottery is 50/50 chance
