Future $50 Million Lotto MAX Lottery jackpot winners could have their lives turned upside down. Be careful what you wish for.
Another option to scare away the NUT cases is to act like one yourself. If you were fortunate to win this week’s $50 Million on Lotto Max and picked your own numbers, you could have some fun with lottery officials.
Tell them you are a time traveller and you went ahead to Saturday Feb 27, 2010 and picked up a Toronto Star paper to get the winning numbers and came back to play them. Currently time travelling this is not in violation of any current lottery rules.
Dressing up as your favourite Star Trek character with pointy ears will make all the papers. After you get your money in the bank, avoid the media and get out of town.
The people at Loto-Québec must have read my book about dressing up. One way around their rules is to have all members show up with their heads shaved bald or with Mohawks, even the women. Men could not shave for a week or your hair colour could be dyed maybe green, yellow, bright blue. They could object to wearing a wig or maybe a hat, but if it’s your own hair, what can they say? Have some fun;do not let lottery officials intimidate you.
Loto-Québec Rules
As stipulated on the back of lottery tickets, Loto-Québec reserves the right to publish the name, region address and photograph of any winners. This rule is one of the conditions of participating in the game, which allows Loto-Québec to provide the public with proof of the prizes won by consumers. This constitutes a fundamental transparency issue.As a winner of a major prize, you may be asked, depending on advertising needs, to take part in a photo session and a brief interview about the circumstances surrounding your win. The following rules apply to the photo session:
- The face must be uncovered
- Overt theatrics are not permitted
- Loto?Québec might require photo ID to confirm the winner’s usual appearance.
If a winner refuses to comply to these rules, Loto?Québec reserves the right to suspend payment of the prize. The same rules apply to prizes claimed by mail.
The information gathered may be used to write a press release sent to the media. Your win will also likely be the subject of a short article, including a photo, in the weekly Loto?hebdo newsletter published by Loto?Québec. In some cases, your stroke of luck could be advertised on Loto?Québec’s website, on the digital displays at some of our points of sale, and during televised draws.
Pay off any debts and take $50,000 out for spending money and lock up the rest for 60+ days. Stop answering your phone and get a cell phone under someone else’s name. Take some time to plan how and what you will do with your new fortune.
Good LUCK!
