How lucky are you?

Have you ever won anything? I won $1000 in Atlantic City once and that's it! :D

1. I don't know if I'm lucky ....

but I would say that even in the worst situation, I seem to somehow make in.

As I told someone, "It's not that I lose, it's just that I don't seem to win".

2. LOL!! This is one way to look at it!

"It's not that I lose, it's just that I don't seem to win".

4. Extremely, but not when it comes to winning things.

I'm lucky in other areas of my life. :-)

I have won $250 on a scratch-off game, and I do OK at the horse track sometimes, but my true luck lies elsewhere. Family, friends, job, home, etc...

5. I found $500 on a run one morning

In an envelope laying in the road. It had been run over several times and it looked like a napkin. For some reason I picked it up, saw green, and pocketed it to count later.

See excercise does pay.

7. That's a great story UP!

See how lucky I am, I found my long lost duckets! $*$ Trailing Clouds Of Glory!

6. I won a car

It was the 35th anniversary of Disneyland. My daughter was 5 at the time (second story I've told today involving my daughter) and she had the winning ticket. Won a Geo Tracker, which was a lot of fun, and the only thing I got from the divorce besides a lot of debt.

8. I'm Mr. Right Place/Right Time

I've never been lucky at lotteries, etc, but if I'm shooting pool, and there's a $20 involved, chances are it'll end up in my wallet.

I've also had luck bouncing around in the workforce.

9. for the important things ...

very lucky. My wife and kids are great. So are a few close friends.

10. I nailed a trifecta once

I put a box on a $2 trifecta bet (which means you pay $6 and the 3 horses can come in any order).

Last race of the day. I turned $6 into $80 (I was down $40 up until that point).

If I had not put a box on it (straight up) that $80 would have been $2000.

This all happened around 1982-3 so the amounts mentioned were significant.

My mother was at one point a professional contest winner. She entered hundereds of contests each month. She won alot of things ranging from a 2 week vacation to Hawaii, a cheap stereo (which I gladly used in college), to a ham.

12. I won $400 on a scratch ticket once

but other than that, I don't win anything.

However, I do still consider myself to be a very lucky person. I'm lucky to have a lot of wonderful people in my life.
