For some reason all the low lifes become lucky at winning the lottery.


I have been doing scratch offs for a while now and have only won as much as getting my money back + $1. ****** bullshit. The money they spend on drugs I could be spending on car parts.

In general, this is the kind of person that has the mindset to play the lottery. They're not smart enough to understand that their odds of winning are extremely small. They have addictive personalities, so it's difficult for them to walk by a gas station without stopping to buy a ticket or 20. And they spend a lot of time at gas stations buying cigarettes, chewing tobacco, beer, and other such items. They blow a lot more money on tickets than your average white-collar Joe, so their odds are improved over most people that might buy one or two tickets when the jackpot gets really high.


With that said... I play every drawing... so maybe I'd fit right in with them.

I don't know, I've read that quite a few of them that won were already rich so it seems biased towards the rich. That's why if I happen to be in a rich neighborhood I'll buy a few $ worth, $2 or 3 at most. Maybe they'll think I'm already rich since I bought the ticket there and they'll let me win. Well, it's a theory.

I agree. its much easier to earn your money then to try and win it. But that concept is difficult for some classes of people. When I lived outside of Detroit the busiest days at the casinos there were the 1st and 15th.
