"NEW YORK (Reuters) - A woman stole $2.3 million (1.2 million pounds) from her employers and spent the money on lottery tickets, buying as much as $6,000 worth of tickets a day in a bid to hit the jackpot, prosecutors said on Thursday.

Annie Donnelly, 38, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to stealing the money over 3 1/2 years from her employer, Great South Bay Surgical Associates, where she was a bookkeeper.

She was spending about $6,000 on lottery tickets a day, a spokeswoman for the Suffolk County District Attorney's office said. It was not clear how much, if any, she won."

What a waste of money. I'd have spent it on cocaine and prostitutes.

$6k a day on lottery tickets, jesus fucking christ.. talk about getting carpal tunnel. :winkwink:

6k a day... I could find much better things to buy then false hope.

I play the home version: Take a dollar bill and flush it down the toilet.

lol my fucking god
6k a day thats nuts

Hah im in suffolk county.. now that there is a true gambler...

wow...great investment

Mr. Romance

and she still didnt win?! Dont you just hate the odds lol

kind of defeats the purpose of trying to cash in on the millions

Ever stupid. She got over $2mil..... SHE WON!
If she had just kept it, she'd have made more than if she had won the friggin lottery.

What an idiot.. and what a waste

I don't think it was the money as much as it was the lotto addiction..

How much more do you wanna win ??? WTF lol
