Off to the next lotto....... at least I tried and will keep trying.

In the next 6 months if nothing happens I'm leaving NYC cause I just can't afford it anymore.
That’s actually a great number. It’ll just take time for them to call you since you don’t have CB preference. It’ll take a while, but if you want this lottery don’t lose hope.

thanks I need all the encouragement I can get at this point.

I wonder how long is a while...... weeks, months, years.....????

Now I see why they call it the lottery cause if you get called it's basically like you won the lotto for real.

For another lottery that I was actually called for, my number was 2xx, and I was called a year later. Someone with a log number of 1,xxx for the same lottery was contacted about six months after me.

For another lottery that I was called for, my log number was 9,xxx - no preference. I was called about six month later.

So one never knows! Good luck!

wow thanks for the info.

It sounds like you've got the luck! How many times have you been called?

I've been applying off and on for a year and have never been called.

Hey guys, I passed by the building yesterday and it seems like people are living on the highest floors. Maybe market rate tenants? The lower floors looked empty and all the lights were off.

LOL, I also stalked the development I'm currently in the process with, and saw it was half full. So I'm still hoping, praying, doing whatever it takes to keep myself positive!
