Good luck with that, and thanks for paying the [poor] tax this year.

My wife and her friends have a big pool and they all have grand plans for when they win.

I was trying to be nice, and really, good luck!

I'll never win because I never play. I worked a lotto machine for a few years. The amount of money they take in is simply staggering.

I buy $10 twice a week, I once won a little over $2200 so I have probably used up my luck.

I think you're still ahead if you started less than two years ago.

Many people who work for me buy a lot of lottery tickets, my dad has always said they don't expect to win, they are just buying hope.

Statistically speaking, you stand just as much of a chance of winning by spending one dollar. So I'd spend a buck, and then buy a nice nine dollar lunch.

Yeah I know but I can't help myself. Not complaining either, I'm not much in the way of vices these days.

I normally only spend $2 on these things, but the difference here is: TONIGHT IS MY NIGHT!

I look at it as entertainment.

If a dollar buys me a 15 minute conversation about what I'd do with 200million, it was probably worth it.

I buy maybe 1 ticket a year.

As long as you do the chores around my 30 acre land, I'll build you a shed in the back NP
