RE: Lottery mathematics - to play or not to play, that is the question...

in #math6 years ago

I will never play the lottery. Partially because the odds of winning are stacked against, and partially because I used to have a job selling lottery tickets at a gas station.

We would have these people who spend HOURS doing the following: walk in, buy a twenty dollar scratch ticket, walk out to their car, scratch it, come in to either redeem a paltry amount or throw it away, and then buy another one. Again and again.

Thus, I have a very negative predisposition towards anything lottery related.

That must have been funny to look at. Poor people, they have taken all the fun out of it :)
