US Lottery Syndication - It Just Pays Well!

Lottery syndicates have a very varied perception around the world. Many feel that playing within a syndicate is futile as winning will never be as lucrative as single ticket wins, with many players not willing to part or share their mega lottery winnings. On the other hand, and on the upside of playing within a syndicate - players are then able to purchase a great deal more lottery tickets and share the cost of playing across various games to improve the overall chance of a win - and that's not even to mention the great social aspect of playing and participating in a group. Although there are positives and negatives to all, statistically speaking, lottery syndicates tend to achieve a fair amount of overall success. One such group has been the first winners from West Virginia for 2015. The successful group of 5 workers from Kanawha County Emergency Ambulance Authority became the state's first lottery winners of the year with their successful claim of a Mega Millions win on January 9th. What's even more unbelievable is that this would be the ladies' syndicate, known as The Fabulous Five's first attempt at a group game. Syndicate leader Brenda Rader from South Charleston explains, "We play separately, but this is the first time we've played as a group; we are the fabulous five."
