  • YOU KNOW, OVER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK, I WAS THINKING ABOUT MY

  • LOTTO TICKET.

  • AND, AGAIN, FOR THOSE JUST JOINING US, I'M GOING TO WIN.

  • ANYBODY WANT TO SEE THE WINNING NUMBERS?

  • RIGHT THERE.

  • KA-POW!

  • THERE IT IS!

  • NOW, ALARMINGLY, THERE SEEMS TO BE ONE THING STANDING IN MY WAY:

  • OTHER PEOPLE BUYING TICKETS.

  • I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING.

  • AND SOME OF THEM AREN'T EVEN AMERICANS.

  • >> EXCITEMENT IS GROWING INTERNATIONALLY.

  • THOUSANDS OF CANADIANS ARE POURING INTO THE U.S. TO TRY

  • THEIR LUCK.

  • >> THE CANADIANS, THEY'RE COMING LIKE CRAZY HERE FOR THE LOTTO.

  • >> I'M GONNA TAKE MY CHANCES JUST LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.

  • WE COME HERE AND DROP A LOT OF MONEY ON A REGULAR BASIS.

  • WE SHOP IN THE U.S. A LOT, SO WE GIVE TO YOU.

  • IT'S TIME TO GIVE BACK.

  • ( LAUGHTER ) >> Stephen: NO ONE DISPUTES THAT

  • CANADA GIVES US A LOT, FROM THEIR DELICIOUS SYRUP TO THEIR

  • FINEST GOSLINGS.

  • BUT YOU ARE PLAYING WITH FIRE HERE, CANADIAN WOMAN, BECAUSE I

  • PROMISE YOU, IF ONE OF YOU MOOSE-MUNCHING ICE-HOLES WINS

  • AMERICA'S BILLION-DOLLAR POWERBALL, DONALD TRUMP WILL BE

  • ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

  • ( CHEERS AND APPLAUSE ) I'LL VOTE FOR HIM!

  • I WILL VOTE FOR HIM!

  • BECAUSE HE'S GOING TO BUILD A WALL BETWEEN THE U.S. AND CANADA

  • AND MAKE THE POWERBALL WINNER PAY FOR IT!

  • SO AN AMERICAN HAS GOT TO WIN THIS THING, AND PEOPLE ARE

  • DESPERATELY LOOKING FOR ADVICE FROM THE EXPERTS, LIKE

  • SEVEN-TIME LOTTO WINNER RICHARD LUSTIG, A MAN WHO STRUCK

  • IT SO BIG IN THE LOTTO, HE CAN FULFILL HIS LIFELONG DREAM OF

  • CONTINUING TO PLAY THE LOTTO.

  • >> THE QUESTION THEY ASK IS, "WHAT CAN I DO?

  • WHAT CAN I DO TO GIVE MYSELF A BETTER CHANCE OF WINNING?"

  • >> Stephen: YES, THAT'S THE QUESTION I'M ASKING!

  • >> THIS IS GOING TO SOUND BAD, BUT THIS IS THE ONLY ANSWER--

  • BUY AS MANY TICKETS AS YOU CAN AFFORD.

  • >> Stephen: "BUY AS MANY AS YOU CAN AFFORD."

  • OKAY, GOT IT.

  • SOUND ADVICE.

  • YOU'VE GOT TO BE IN IT TO WIN IT, BUT YOU HAVE TO BUDGET FOR

  • THE ESSENTIALS-- FOOD, RENT, SCRATCHERS, THE PONIES, CAMEL

  • STRAIGHTS.

  • NOW, SOME MIGHT SAY THERE'S NO WAY TO GAME A COMPLETELY RANDOM

  • SYSTEM AND THAT YOU'RE FAR BETTER OFF SAVING OR INVESTING

  • YOUR MONEY.

  • THOSE PEOPLE ARE CALLED SUCKERS.

  • ( LAUGHTER ) THEY'RE TAKING THEMSELVES OUT OF

  • THE GAME, AND LEAVING ALL THEIR DAUGHTERS' LUCKY BIRTHDAYS FOR

  • YOU TO PLAY.

  • SO WHILE I'M GOING TO CLEARLY WIN THIS ONE, HERE ARE SOME

  • "LATE SHOW" POWERBALL TIPS.

  • AND KEEP IN MIND THAT THE TIP IS THE MOST SENSITIVE PART OF THE

  • POWERBALL.

  • ( LAUGHTER ) ( APPLAUSE )

  • ( CHEERS ) >> Stephen: DON'T ENCOURAGE

  • ME?

  • OKAY, "LATE SHOW'S"" POWERBALL TIP NUMBER ONE-- PICK ONLY

  • WINNING NUMBERS, BE IT 8, 11, 39-- YOUR CHOICE, BUT PICK THE

  • ONES THAT WIN.

  • TIP NUMBER TWO: KNOW WHAT NUMBERS ARE.

  • A LOT OF FOLKS LOSE BEFORE THEY EVEN PLAY BECAUSE THEY PICK AN

  • AMPERSAND OR THE EMOJI FOR EGGPLANT.

  • THOSE ARE NOT NUMBERS.

  • WE ALL KNOW WHAT THIS IS.

  • TIP NUMBER THREE: IF IT'S SMART TO BUY AS MANY TICKETS AS YOU

  • CAN AFFORD, THINK HOW SMARTER IT IS TO BUY MORE THAN YOU CAN

  • AFFORD.

  • WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO GET THE MONEY, YOU ASK?

  • THE GUY IN THE FUTURE.

  • THAT GUY'S LOADED BECAUSE HE JUST WON THE LOTTERY WITH TIPS

  • ONE THROUGH TWO.

  • NEXT, TIP NUMBER FOUR: IF YOU WANT TO BE A LOTTERY

  • WINNER, START ACTING LIKE A LOTTERY WINNER.

  • BUY ALL OF YOUR FRIENDS MATCHING JEEPS.

  • PICK UP AN EXPENSIVE PILL ADDICTION.

  • START SCREAMING AT YOUR LOVED ONES, "I'M NOT A DAMN BANK!"

  • THEN WAKE UP IN A RADISSON BATHROOM UNDER A PILE OF NAKED

  • STRANGERS, EMPTY THE MINI BAR INTO YOUR POCKETS, AND SLINK

  • BACK TO YOUR JOB AT THE VERIZON STORE.

  • BECAUSE YOU'RE GOING TO NEED THAT PAYCHECK TO BUY MORE LOTTO

  • TICKETS.

  • BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT TIP OF ALL:

  • HAVE THIS LOTTERY TICKET BECAUSE THAT POWERBALL IS ALL

  • MINE!

  • I'LL SEE YOU AT THE RADISSON!

YOU KNOW, OVER THE COMMERCIAL BREAK, I WAS THINKING ABOUT MY
