Blair YMCA Raffle - GREAT ODDS !!!

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

The odds of winning a NEW 2001 Yellow RT-10 are extremely high!
The 3500 tickets available were based on a 6 month raffle period, and the State of Nebraska only is allowing 3 months for the drawing, since it was a 100% donation. So.............

Since total sales figures were based on 6 months, the 3 month phase appears to be too short a time-frame to get this accomplished. Therefore, your chances are likely to be in the 1-1500 to 1-2000 range ( better if you buy more tickets, obviously ). Still plenty available at www.blairymca.org, or call (402) 533-9624.

I just recieved my raffle ticket a few days ago. I have been saying my prayers and living the good life recently in hopes of winning this one! In fact, I have already cleared a spot in my garage for this beautiful yellow RT/10. Thanks to Bill Pemberton for making this raffle drawing possible.

Bill, if the very rare chance came up that I won (I need a ticket) would there be any problems getting it to Canada or does it have to stay in the states?? If everything is cool, I'll take a ticket.

Let me know.

Craig, if you can't afford the CA conversion I'll personally start a fund on the board to get it done for you. God knows that you've earned it here. Now buy the ticket!!!

My luck would be that I'd win... I can't afford the taxes this year so I'd be forced to sell it... Good luck to the rest of you though....

Bonk,

Thanks

I dunno what I'd have to pay on taxes as I would only pay $50 U.S. for the car (I'd gladly pay duty on that!) becasue here You don't pay any taxes on anything you win, all our lotteries are tax free. FOr conversion all I'd need is a speedometer. IF I Was expected to pay the taxes on the car full it'd be up for sale then I'd go buy a used one up here.

So where do I send the $$?

[Bonkers]

I think we discussed the tax thing before but I can't remember. Isn't 28% the Federal standard? I remember reading somewhere that the winner of the last powerball ($78m) only got $60m (like how I phrased that "only got") because of the tax slap.

Roughly I'd be planning on a $17k IRS note...

 

[Craig 201 MPH]

I ran some figures "if" I was to win and had to pay taxes on the value of the car, it would be $15K plus

It'd still be a cheap Viper though!

 

[Birvini]

OK, Here's a stupid question but I have to ask. It does not say on the form where to send the$$ for a ticket. I'm assuming it's to the YMCA? YES NO??

How am I going too win if this raffle post keeps coming up; no more replies to this post as it is messing my odd's up

 

[Bill Pemberton Woodhouse]

Sooooo...................if a VCA member wins this, I will just stick my neck out and offer a ext. service contract at cost, and we will throw in a set of floor mats. Heck, Bob is out of town, so why not spend his money --- he donated the car anyway, so I izzz just in da givin spirit, ha.


PS - Okay, I will additionally toss in an MGW license frame.

This note will self destruct on Monday , when Bob gets back in town, ha.
