I really liked this book cause it told you about the inner working of the lottery and the illusion that they give to the public about Pot amounts. I work for a lottery and didnt even know about some of the goings-on.It is about one mans journey working for an agency that buys annuity's from past winners and the con-game they use to get what they want without the people being aware of what they are doing. The lenghts they go to secure a deal is unbeliveable!If you play the lottery its worth reading and knowing what the jack-pots REALLY are.

I disagree with the other reviewers. The book did not give you a look at the inner workings of the lottery system. It didn't tell you how a deal was done, what a lottery winner was paid for their annuity money or the formula used to determine it. And they only spoke about 2 lottery winners! It was more of the author's autobiography. Sad I wasted a credit on this book.
