Maybe I will just kill myself. What on Earth does this man did to his ticket. Is it really true. I can't believe it. That would be the worst thing that ever happen to me. And I don't want to win and that will be the in exchange of my winning. Never. Hope that it will not happen to me. I hate the idea, I hate the scenario.
Talking of reaction, when that happen to me surely I am not breathing anymore.

No need for all that ... just becasue something like that bad happen to you doesn't mean you have to go crazy and kill yourself. Life is more valuable then any amount of money. But Sometimes people but a price on themselves haha.. Which isn't good at all haha.. but yeah.. Everything is going to be okay..
But yeah It will be a sucky feeling if something like that happen to me I would be mad at myself for a very long time. I will get over it in time though haha.. =]

If this was a ticket that was generated through a machine like for lotto he can actually go to the lottery and say I bought the ticket at this market at about this time. He could prove it this way. I hope he knows to do this. The person that might found the ticket would not know these details.

Poor bloke losing such an valuable ticket! well if it was me I wouldn't lose it in the first place.. I would guard it with my life 
But well half a million dollars is certainly a lovely amount of money and well I guess I would pay off the debts, bills and expenses and any remaining change I would invest it in property and stocks and well take a well deserved holiday.

If I had won the lottery I would have paid off my house, paid my parents, and my two daughters bills off. Plus give them some money. I would give to my 4 charities that I believe in. Then move to Puerto Rico and live happily ever after. As for losing the ticket I can't answer that because I would never let that happen. It would never be out of my sight till I cashed it in. LOL LOL LOL.

Well sylvaron,
I don't see the reason why to hate your life all because you lost a valuable ticket. Yeah it would of paid lots of bills and help you get some of your wants and needs. Yeah that would of been good but yeah your life has been the way it is for the longest time so why would you hate your life haha..
But yeah.. It would be sucky haha.. I would just be mad at myself for a while if I won a ticket like that I would of guard it like no tomorrow. haha.. Like they guard the President.
