They tend to use that 80% criterion elsewhere, too, like in special education.

Can you tell me what the UK lotto numbers will be for the next ten times? I'm hoping you'll get it right at least 8 times, seen as you're right 80% of the time...

Regardless of whether it was fixed or not you should have been able to see the outcome. Unless of course you were just guessing.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

I don't work that way, greed is a lower energy and it would block or interfere the open and honest mind canalling to tap into the higher energy. For the fun of it, I once guessed on three horses at a race horse track,and numbers worked because I got to touch the horses before the race and felt their energy, dam!!! I just don't gamble. I don’t know any others that can; I guess you’re out of luck Hey! the best things in life are free!!! 
"Bad imagination will be found out."
Oh, absolutely. Religion is like a barometer to find the idiots.

Ohhhh come on! If anyone in this world really had the ability to predict future events they'd be sitting in a frickin mansion...
If you gave someone else the winning lottery numbers, how exactly would that be greed on your part. I would like the winning decades of dollars numbers for Arkansas tonight. If I win, I'd defend your abilities to everyone on this board
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon (June 14, 2011 at 9:35 am)Napoleon Wrote: Ohhhh come on!

Most of the success of natural talents are by working our desires, attitude and focus along with that talents, that also increases your luck chances in life. The rich have abilities with numbers and prediction worth of products I took the poorest paid field in the nation: ART/ Entertainment and made myself a millionaire. The worst part about being rich is money has the least to do with happiness and today I have found a better balance. About 1% of the rich control most of the world's wealth on earth. I once dealt with a lot of millions and the odd billionaire and the worst virtue I've experience is their greed and the power that corrupts that often processes them. Generally I would not depend on the American dream that most of them have designed for you, because most of us are already owned and financial enslaved by the rich. The other four factor in life are the of balance in relationships, your physical, spiritual and intellectual.
My special talent is detecting bullshit: You are full of it.
