Says the guy who only links a subreddit as a response

but the money comes from the people who buy the tickets, wherever they are, the more people you can access, the more money you can put in the jackpot.

People purchasing lottery tickets are mainly buying 'hope', not playing the odds in any calculated way.

That is so stupid

Flat Rock Cemetery and Harts field cemetary

They should make non state residents unable to claim? Not sure how to make this right

Take a look here. The issue isn’t buying the lotto ticket. The issue is sending the winnings overseas.

edit: more detail

Foreign asset control at the federal level is the regulation. You don’t have a fundamental right to send things or money out of the country. Only as allowed by law.

Right up your alley

It starts near Grand Lake in Grand County and flows through Grand Junction and then the Grand Canyon.

Until that one ticket wins, and everyone is looking to collect their millions.

But the chances of winning is that much lower

That's true. Autoplay works out of state because you set it up & turned it on while in the state that sells. It's like the one loophole.

And it's so unbelievably tired and a played out.

Not exactly. With Jackpocket, you can only purchase tickets for the state you are located in. And Jackpocket is only available in certain states - they have physically locations for each state they operate in, buying tickets per order.

I think you mean IRS agent

It's a common joke to reply to someone with a lower number. It's a reference to a popular post joking about police stealing drugs incrementally.

Lotteries give you a hard copy of your numbers and publicly draw the winning numbers. This person’s hypothetical business model implies they don’t actually give the numbers at all to the end client so they can lie to winners and pocket any winnings.

Well, if that were true the lottery themselves wouldn’t have any customers lol

Doesn’t affect lotteries from what I can tell, weirdly. I just googled a half dozen I know off the top of my head and they all said that as long as the ticket is purchased in the state (some required it to be claimed locally too). There doesn’t seem to be any other hard factors, including nationality, country of residence, or anything else that would seem relevant that I could find in a cursory search.

Pretty simple to keep honest. You assign me to buy a lottery ticket with numbers 1,2,3,4. I buy the ticket. You check the winning numbers.

This is why it works for lottery tickets but not other forms of gambling. The results are published

they are saying first that its legal - and also that there are already people doing
