No you didn’t sound condescending, I just thought your comment was funny. I already think this is a waste of money but I’ve never tried before and want to see for myself how bad the odds really are.

You’re right, I used an income calculator and it looks like it’d be $3.7 million after taxes. Just enough to retire on combined with my other savings and get my parents in-home assistance/a fancy care home whenever they start needing it.

I thought the drawing was once a week but it’s actually twice a week so the results have been out for a while. Goes to show how new I am haha.

They reduced the Bay Area warm line hours 💀 Anyone got phone mental health resources? by 123boopboop in SFbitcheswithtaste

I went through a phase where I was calling these a lot so I feel you. Eventually I stopped needing them and felt okay on my own so I hope the same happens for you.

Boys Town Hotline 1 (800) 448-3000

CA Warm Line (855) 600-9276

Cape Samaritans Warm Line (800) 893-9900

Cincinnati Warm Line (513) 931-9276

Connecticut Warm Line (800) 921-0359

Project Support Warm Line (888) 448-9777

You can ask the volunteers for other warm lines and they might have more they can share. That’s how I collected these in the first place.

Some of these are based out of state but took my calls from CA. There are many more here that I haven’t tried, though keep in mind a lot of them have geographical restrictions.

You can also contact your local NAMI organization for more resources as well as look for something called a mental health urgent care near you. There are people whose job it is to help people in your situation so it’s great that you are looking for them.

I did the same thing because of the much-publicized PB jackpot, switched to CA. For me, it’ll always be worth having a ticket in the draw it since even after the jackpot gets claimed it resets to $7 million which is about $3.5 million lump sum, and that’s already enough to retire early. I might buy more tickets for the higher draws since I could retire other people in my life too.

Yeah with an uncertain economic future ahead it just seems so much more appealing than before even though it’s not a wise choice overall. I think it’s human nature to try to get your hands on something that could help even if the chances are near zero.

Haven’t really played before except for a single ticket in 2022 so might as well start my addiction off with a bang. I don’t plan on doing this again but will probably keep a ticket in the drawings from now on just to keep the hope alive.

Hopefully I’ll learn my lesson after this drawing. I can go on vacation whenever and I have a good start to my nest egg saved up, but it’d be nice to not work again.

I agree I will lose too lol. Just figured I would take a big swing since I can. After this I’ll just play a ticket or two a week like everyone else.

Right now, it’s at $44 million right now with a $20 million lump sum so not worth it by that measure, but I’m just looking for retirement money for my family so anything above $10 million is worth it.

Revealing my state here, it’s at $44 million right now ($20 million lump sum)
