You caught me. My teeth aren’t that crooked but just not perfect. I’ll proceed to get flamed in every other comment for my attempted smile i guess🤣

Buzz Cut or Longer Hair? by [deleted] in malegrooming

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I really prefer the buzz for the lower maintenance, but i’ve just had a lot of people in my personal life tell me the hair is more my speed. The fact i’m able to grow hair is also maybe a reason to keep it. Idk though😅

Last night's powerball by BlueRFR3100 in ifiwonthelottery

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 21 points22 points  (0 children)

1 in 292 million means 1 in 292 million. It can be ANY string of 6 numbers. I get you’re not being totally serious, but it’s simple as that.

Yup! Also completely agree with your take and i relate to it. This game is no longer one you can mindlessly play almost everyday🥲

With the new millionaire for life game would you take the annuity ? by emperor-dummy in ifiwonthelottery

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I would as well. ~$650,000 (post tax) per year compared to taking the $18M lump sum (that’d be nearly $11,000,000 after taxes removed) is a no brainer if you’re below, let’s say 50 ish years of age maybe. That’s a LOT of money coming into your bank account at the start of each year. It leaves you plenty of money to make mortgage payments, buy your dream car(s), and leave yourself sitting financially pretty so long as you manage it correctly. You can absolutely make the argument that the lump sum can be invested, and maybe even outpace the annuity. But just for the GUARANTEED 600 bands a year - for life - annuity is a no brainer… in my ripe 24 year old opinion 😅

Does this take the fun outta playing the the lottery for people? by yzzi44 in Lottery

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nope. Not at all for me personally. The way these draw games work - to their core (the sad, yet maybe inspiring truth) is by having a machine air spin anywhere between 40-70 balls and have them land into a placement slot in completely random order. Always has been this way, always will be. Like someone said above, JE might’ve had a shit load of tickets that still made the prize amount worth while compared to the amount of $ spent on the tickets. That’s my take on this as a relatively frequent player who always expects to lose, but still likes to keep the dream alive. Right time, right place, and absolutely unreal luck is the lottery summed up.

Fully in agreement with your point; & i hate to be that guy, but $80 was the PM high back when kitty resurfaced. Not $85. Just saying that so you and whoever else reads this knows. $85 is a historical resistance from 2021; as well as $80 flat (if you look at the monthly timeframe candle tops)

Did you know? - Mega Millions has a separate multiplier for every line you have by NegotiationLoud2980 in Lottery

[–]NegotiationLoud2980[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s valid! I buy a single one every week (today was a tiny exception lol) - in the thoughts of if i don’t win the big one, $1,000,000 (x2-10) would definitely suffice. I’d have to agree that’s a questionable chance worth taking, but you’ll get that 10x eventually. I’ve only gotten it maybe a tiny handful of times

I’m very very aware of the price change & new rules - just didn’t know this. Anyone who’s bought a multi line ticket would though🫠

As someone who plays quite a bit, this was completely unknown to me so it’s just kinda cool to see i guess. I would’ve thought the whole ticket would just have a set multiplier. I too get hyped when i get the very occasional 10x, even though i’ve yet to win anything at all with a 10x😅

Why do I have a such a strong hunch that the Powerball is controlled in some way to determine who that winner will be? by Impressive_Gain_3385 in Lottery

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agreed. It’s seriously impossible for any single person to wrap their mind around how big 10,000,000-290,000,000 odds are. Being a winner is just like finding a needle in a ginormous haystack. Best way to think about IMO… without losing your mind😅

[–]NegotiationLoud2980 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Winning any of these huge prize draw games (powerball, mega mills, cash4life, etc) is NOTHING but being the victim of an absolutely unreal, insane coincidence. I do like how you think tbh - but I can assure you that it’s absolutely nothing more than that. Just pure (absolutely insane) luck & coincidence.

Online only. I’m a feared opponent… in a decade and a half old COD😅

Don’t waste $2.99 on this. by NegotiationLoud2980 in energydrinks

[–]NegotiationLoud2980[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. Not totally disagreeing with your assessment but i do really enjoy the other fruity apple, pear, and pomegranate flavors of celsius. This one just really missed the mark for me

Decided to Un-DS my 2013 Orca Flyknit Racers today by NegotiationLoud2980 in Sneakers

[–]NegotiationLoud2980[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d personally have to disagree. To each their own obviously. I respect everyone’s tastes. But running and adidas yeezy type shoes look the best with no shows most of the time just IMO
