EastCoastLife Strikes Lottery - RT


Thanks to God of Fortune at River Hongbao 2009!

I won 2nd prize!! It was an ibet and won me only S$166.

I was not supposed to win. I had misread a number as 0. My nieces and nephews who helped me 'catch' the numbers told me it was a 6. haha.... should I blame it on my poor eyesight?

It is my first time buying 4D. I bet on 0089 with 12 permutations. My sister-in-law helped me place the bet. I threw the ticket away when I thought I did not win. My husband saved it and helped me collect the money.

Showing the digits to Andrew, designer of River Hongbao 2009

aiyahhh.... had I known I was going to strike 2nd prize, I would have bet heavily on the 4 digits!

I'm buying the kids KFC on Sunday. :D

    Congrats. Anyway, just have fun. May not be a good idea to becoming rich through Toto.

    Whatever it is, looks like it will be a good year for you!

    Congrats ECL,

    Unlike you, I do not have such luck,

    Thus I do not buy 4d or TOTO.

    I save some money from not buying hehe...

    Thanks oceanskies.
    I was having fun. I don't believe in gambling or becoming rich by winning lottery.

    My Fengshui master tells me I have good money luck this year. :D

    sgshortstories,
    I don't buy too.

    I brought my nieces and nephews to River Hongbao 2009 and they picked up 2 numbers. The next evening my foreign friends picked up another 2 numbers. My sister-in-law volunteered to buy 4D for me.

    My hubby also bought. They bought the correct number but I shade the wrong one and won!! haha....

    Dora,
    haha.... there is frequent mention of 'if I know' after the winning. But it is not possible to know before that.

    It's fun though. I stop betting already.

    Congratulations. Hope you spend the money on something really nice for yourself.
    In my country -Norway_ they say never to give away something you've won. Then you are giving away your luck.
    I always give my daughter anyway. She deserves all the luck she can get.
