Lotto Black Book Recommendation Retraction

I no longer recommend Lotto Black Book.

If you have purchased Lotto Black Book through Deep Trance Now website, and you are not satisfied with your purchase, you can either get a full refund or you if you do not want to go through the refund hassle, I will be happy to let you download for free 4 supraliminal plus recordings of your choice - just forward me the email with your receipt for the purchase of Lotto Black book and email me the titles of the 4 free supraliminal plus recordings that you would like to download.

This offer is valid until December 31, 2009.

Over the years I have purchased variety of books related to winning the lottery, lotto systems, and computer software for tracking lottery numbers, because I have friends who enjoy tracking lottery numbers and working with different lottery systems and they say it works well for them. I have discovered that I don't have the patience to track lottery numbers and that I much prefer to experiment using mind power and intuition.

One could say that even if you were working with a lottery system, you are developing intuitive knowledge, partly based on your experience, and partly because whether you are consciously aware of it or not, you are tuning in on subconscious level into the game you are playing.

While no one can guarantee that you will win the lottery with any particular method, by experimenting with different methods and finding one that best works for you by experimenting with different methods and techniques, you will be increasing your chances of winning. It is for that reason that I have offered Lottery Black Book program, expecting it to be one of the lottery systems that may be fun for someone who enjoys tracking lottery numbers, even though it may not be my cup of tea.

I have created different recordings for Winning the Lottery and they are all based on methods and techniques that I have used and still am using successfully in different areas of my life. While we may all have different talents, abilities and affinities, and some methods may feel more natural for one person, while for others the same method may be more challenging, and sometimes we may be in a state of mind where we are getting as if by grace results with a method we never used before, for the most part, any method involving the use of subconscious mind can be developed and improved upon through practice. One would be also more inclined to practice a method one enjoys. I am passionate about experimenting with mind power and the methods and techniques that work for me all revolve around using mind power - some are based on asking for guidance and accessing my intuition, and some on programming my subconscious mind with desired outcomes.

What may work best for you, only you can tell through experimenting with methods that you feel drawn to experiment with. If you've never won anything, the best way to practice is - just on paper without investing any money - until you develop enough skill to win consistently, even if you are just breaking even until you start winning more. If you play with money, play only with the amount of money which if you lose, you won't lose your sleep over. Participating in games of chance is supposed to be an entertainment, something you do with extra money you have for the fun of it. It should never be your main financial strategy, and if you win big and you never have to work again for money - that's great - if you don't, you may still experience fun and excitement from participating in games of chance and still enjoy peaceful dreams.

Personally, I do participate in games of chance every now and then and when I win, I win consistently. When it comes to picking lottery numbers or tickets, I use all the methods I have described on Win the Lottery CDs, plus I experiment with few others which I will mention at a later date. Sometimes I pick numbers intuitively, sometimes I get quick-pick numbers, sometimes I get scratch tickets, sometimes I play a selection of numbers for few months, and sometimes I experiment with combination of methods. I pick the method that feels right for me at the time. And the only thing I can tell you for sure is that I win more if I actually focus on winning for a while, then if I just buy tickets and forget about them. Again what works best for you, you can only find out from your own experiments and experience.

Lottery winners reveal their surprisingly modest dreams

They are rich beyond their wildest dreams. But as the nine winners of Britain's largest lottery prize spoke of their good fortune, their dreams turned out to be surprisingly modest.


Les Scadding and his wife Samantha Peachey-Scadding from Caerleon, south Wales 

Luxury sportscars, superyachts and exotic holidays? Not quite. A Vauxhall Corsa and a trip to Menorca were the biggest extravagances that the newly minted millionaires could countenance as the scale of their windfall sunk in.

The ticket-holders for Friday's £91m Euromillions jackpot were unveiled as Les Scadding and his wife Samantha Peachey-Scadding, from south Wales, and a syndicate of IT workers from Merseyside, dubbed 'The Magnificent Seven'. Each ticket was worth £45,570,835.50.

Mr Scadding, 58, declared himself "a very lucky man". Five years ago, he was diagnosed with cancer but has since been given the all-clear. "I'm lucky to be here today even without my winnings," he said.

The father of three grown-up children from a previous marriage lives in a three-bedroom end of terrace house in the small town of Caerleon, near Newport, with his 38-year-old wife.

He purchased a lucky dip ticket only because he forgot to take the card bearing his usual numbers on his trip to Tesco.

The mechanic and haulage driver was made redundant a year ago and until Friday was £68 in the red. He said he was looking forward to spoiling his wife, who runs a marketing and public relations business, after being a "kept man". "To start with, being unemployed meant I could have a few extra games of golf and meet the lads in the pub at lunchtime. But it wasn't like that in reality. We have struggled this year but now it is my turn to make it up to Sam."

Mr Scadding intends to buy a black Range Rover Sport with ivory interior. He said: "I have never, ever in my life owned a new car. I'm going to buy one now."

He described the win as "fate", explaining: "It's a funny thing but for the last 12 years I have always said I'm going to win the lottery. "My family all laughed at me. My daughter, who lives in Abu Dhabi, always asked, 'Have you won the lottery?' I rang her at the weekend and when I told her the whoop at the end was just incredible."

At a separate press conference on Merseyside, the other seven winners - who will each bank £6.5 million - reflected on their new lives. John Walsh, 57, James Bennett, 28, Sean Connor, 32, Alex Parry, 19, Emma Cartwright, 23, Ceri Scullion, 35 and Donna Rhodes, 39, have already quit their jobs at the BT office in Liverpool, where they were employed by Hewlett Packard.

They formed the syndicate only four months ago and Mr Walsh bought a lucky dip ticket. "I couldn't sleep on Sunday morning so ended up checking the numbers on Teletext at 3am. I had to wake up my wife, son and daughter so they could double check I wasn't dreaming."

Mr Walsh called the others to break the good news. "I didn't quite get the response I expected because, with the economy in the state that it's in, they all thought I was calling them to tell they had been made redundant."

Each of the syndicate members earned between £15,000 and £18,000 per year. Mr Bennett, who is married with two young sons, said: "I have never owned a house and we have already been searching on the internet. It is the most amazing feeling to be able to click the button which says 'No maximum price'. It is hard to believe that these dream homes we are looking at are now in our price range." Mrs Rhodes added: "We're just normal people. I don't know how to be different. I don't know what to do in an estate agents, I've never bought a house."

Mrs Scullion, who is planning a holiday to Menorca, fell off her stool in the nail salon when she heard the news. She plans to buy a minibus for the local children's hospital, which treated her son for a hole in the heart.

The youngest winner, Miss Parry, had been saving for the past year to buy her first car "and so the first thing I will do is treat myself to a blue Vauxhall Corsa." The win also means she can fulfil her dream of going to university. She turned down the chance last year because she was deterred by the prospect of student debt.

Winning big is everyone's dream, but are you ready for it?

Scottish Lottery Winners

The National Lottery is this month celebrating its 15th anniversary, with licensee Camelot staging parties for past winners all round the UK, including a gathering at Hampden Park for some of Scotland’s 436 big winners, among them 190 millionaires or multi-millionaires since 1994.

Lotto winner John McGuinness, however, was a notable absentee from the Scottish prizewinners’ bash.

McGuinness, 45, one of the earliest and biggest winners in the UK when in January 1996 he picked up £10,055,900, said last month he was broke.

Scottish-based financial planner Duncan Glassey has built a business on advising the suddenly wealthy, and steering them away from becoming almost as suddenly poor again. “We are all capable of making the wrong investment decisions based on greed and naivete,” Glassey says.

“One lady came to me having lost her lottery win on a fraudulent investment scheme. She had invested £750,000 won by her fiancé, on the promise of a 50% return on her investment. The lady was knowledgeable on financial matters and had a successful private practice as a psychologist. But what she knew didn’t influence her behaviour.”

He goes on: “People who receive sudden wealth often suffer great frustration over how to deal with such a large amount of money. For some this results in a painful inability to identify real needs and longings, or to connect with meaningful work or occupation. Others find it difficult to establish authentic and trusting friendships.”

An international survey found that 35% of lottery winners turn out to be bankrupt within 10 years.

“In drawing up a plan we often find that if they buy the lovely house that they have always dreamed about, get the cars they want, give the gifts they want to brothers, sisters and close family, then the money will run out after about five years,” Glassey says. “The first mistake people make if they win £1m or £2m is they think they can live a millionaire’s lifestyle.”

Only a month ago, nine regulars at the Doon Inn in Blantyre scooped a £4,525,058 win from their lottery syndicate, triggering windfalls of over £500,000 for each of them. But is that enough to retire?

An Aberdeen-based deep-sea diver on six-figure earnings consulted Glassey after a big lottery win. “He said, ‘unless I can go to Portugal every weekend and play golf and not have to work, I am going back to work on Monday’. He was aware he couldn’t otherwise maintain his current lifestyle – it’s unusual for someone to be so level-headed.”

Since their £2.9m syndicate win in February 2007, the staff of Smile hair and beauty in Burnside, Lanarkshire, have all paid off their mortgages and bought new homes and cars. But though two have retired, Wendy Brown, Natalie McGuire, Lorna Alexander and Megan McCann all still work together at the salon.

But most dramatic was the winner who Glassey encountered while advising in Edinburgh on behalf of Ernst & Young in the lottery’s early days.

“He owed his best friend £500 and couldn’t pay him back, so he tried the lottery. He won £1.5m, paid his friend back, and came to see E&Y. He said he was going to give all the money to the Salvation Army, and had made the decision not to tell his wife or his children. He was an Irishman with a big family of seven, they were incredibly close and he was terrified this money was going to influence them.”

Glassey recalls: “In many ways I really respected the guy. But the downside was that he never took any advice. Today, I would probably try a lot harder to persuade him to put money in trust for children or grandchildren’s education, to take a long-term view.”

McGuinness was a hospital porter who blew most of his £10m win on sports cars, luxury holidays, a mansion in Lanarkshire, and ploughing cash into Livingston Football Club, though he gave £3m away to family and friends.

“I thought I’d plenty of money and what was a few million to invest in a football club,” he said in a recent interview. “Now I’m worried about how to pay for the shopping.”

Glassey observes: “For many people whose experiences were not positive, much of the damage has its roots in non-financial matters. Many simply did not know how to handle the attention and emotions involved, and they were not prepared to make the decisions and set the boundaries that were necessary …

“Many people have stories of scams, bankruptcies, and unexpected losses. Lottery winners have told me about spending binges and how they hid money from their spouses. There is often an unbalanced relationship with money which can manifest itself as shame, guilt, anger, fear, rampant materialism, hoarding and all manner of addictive or compulsive behaviour.”

Camelot has a panel of 10 financial advisory firms and 10 legal firms standing by every week for all winners of prizes over £50,000. “The IFAs are all assessed on their independence, their charging structure and their expertise and knowledge,” says Camelot’s Rob Dwight.

That definition would appear to rule out going to the bank for advice. “We see winners before everyone else, in the privacy of their own home – though understandably you may get winners who shout it from the rooftops, and a bank or building society may see an opportunity to push their services forward.”

Glassey recalls: “We came across horror stories where the winner said the bank had contacted them, and they had put all the money into a with-profits bond. Luckily, on some occasions it was within a 14-day cooling-off period – but on some occasions we arrived too late.”

He adds: “In those days Royal Bank of Scotland was known to send round a limousine to pick up a (lottery-winning) client for a meeting with the bank manager – for some people that is a wow factor.”

So what is best advice for a newly minted millionaire?

“It goes from the very practical, to changing the telephone number and organising a PO box number, in case people are trying to contact them remotely or track them down, to giving them the first advice – do nothing for 12 months, yes, you have hit the jackpot but what do you want to do with it?”

Next comes a gradual initiation into financial jargon, the meaning of risk, and building a life plan. Investment would be “low-risk in the first couple of years until they become more knowledgeable”. A typical spread at the outset would be 70% in gilts, high-quality corporate bonds and cash spread among different institutions in £50,000 chunks, and 30% in equity funds with very widely diversified holdings.

Advisers should charge on the basis of ongoing service, not products.

Glassey concludes: “Money is the single most transformational substance in our society. It is seductive, alluring, fascinating, and perceived as greatly desirable. It is everyone’s dream – but you must be mentally prepared.”

79-Yr.-Old $8.9 Million Lottery Winner Plans To Buy New Mattress

Thursday May 28, 2009
CityNews.ca Staff
Toronto has a new multi-millionaire who just wants one thing - a new mattress.

Meet Margherita Porporo, a 79-year-old Italian-Canadian, who doesn't speak a lot of English. But she understands the universal language of money as well as anyone and on Thursday, she came to the Ontario Lottery and Gaming headquarters to pick up her cheque for a cool $8.9 million. (The actual amount is $8,948,707, but what's a few bucks when there's that much at stake?)

The senior was the sole winner in Wednesday's Lotto 6/49 draw, claiming the top prize on a quick pick. She wants to share most of the money with her grown children, three boys and a girl, along with her nine very fortunate grandkids.

Porporo is long since retired and intends to keep on playing the games of chance. She's been entering the lottery twice a week for years, and had previously won a few bucks. But she never expected anything like this.

There are a few things this 79-year-old grandma wants to do with her newfound fortune. She plans to buy a bungalow. And she's going out to purchase a new mattress, something her family has been telling her to get for some time. Now, at last, she seems sure she can afford it.

It doesn't appear, though, that she plans to keep the money there.
