Do you play the lottery?

[Bear Hammer]

Do any of you actually play the lottery? Scratch offs, Powerball, local draws, whatever.

I know the odds are horrible, and most people treat it like a tax on poor math skills, but I'm curious if anyone here plays semi-regularly, and if so, why? Entertainment? Hopium?

No I don't because gambling is a rip off where you are barely likely to win in millions of lifetimes.

If you're walking into a gas station and getting a Moxie, the $1 to get a lotto ticket is cheaper than the pop.

I've played it from 2017 - 2018 but not really much. Lottery Tickets aren't really worth it. It's just better to preserve your wealth whether it be precious metals than it is wasting it on a ticket you're likely to lose anyways.
