    The bottom line is that you invest $100 of which over half goes to the legal fund. You have a 1 in 1500 chance of winning a Unimog that if of no use to you, I am confident you could flip her overnight for at least $30K.

    In my opinion, the odds don't seem bad and the possible return is good.
    I'm not sure about maximum time limits and set draw dates, but you could probably have the lottery good for a year, or, until all the tickets are sold.

    Right now, people are buying lottery and hospital dream home tickets like crazy out here.

    It seems that the more desperate people get, the more they gamble.

    Dropping the price to $25, and printing 6000 tickets might help, too.

    Most people would probably buy more, anyways.

    You also have your webpage to advertise on, and your walk-in crowd, as well.

    He was the one with the Humvee raffle.

    Not sure how it worked out for him.
    Pretty sure Ryan donated a chunk of change to the Army Cadets. IIRC.

    I agree. I don't need this but i would buy few tickets as long as the draw is done online and in real time.

    I would buy a couple tickets. I’ve always wanted a Unimog.
