    Oh wait does “groundhogs day for a full year” mean that you complete a year then at the end you start that year over? Or is it that you repeat the same single day 365 times? Because repeating the same single day wouldn’t give someone enough info to invest or win a lottery (they close sales more than a day before drawing winners). I’m not sure I could out-earn $π million in a single day even with 365 attempts and +3 charisma… unless it was some kind of criminal heist, but then it couldn’t be known if I would be caught on a later date.

      I don’t know if you’re from the states but if you are purchasing mega millions or Powerball tickets, they stop sales at about 6:45 p.m. Pacific time and then do the drawing sometime after 7:00 of the same day.

      I interpreted it as you would repeat the exact same day 365 times, not that you would repeat the exact same year over and over again.
