Said to the wife ‘What you say if I told you I’d won the Lottery.’ she said ’I’ll take my half and I’m leaving you.’I replied ‘I won $20, here’s $10 keep in touch.’
I don’t gamble. I don’t understand gambling. I love and play a lot of games, but for some reason, when money comes into play, real or functional, I find games confusing. But when a Lottery gets up to those 500+ million dollars in sizes, I can understand risking the $2.
My “lottery theology”: The odds of winning are so low, that you can only win if God wants you to win. And if He does, you don’t need to buy more than one ticket. But you need to buy that one.
So I buy a ticket once or twice a year, just in case God has decided that I should win.
I should say that I am probably showing my age. I used to get a penny allowance and one could actually things with a penny back then. (I saved mine instead and those pennies along with their later allowance friends, and savings (including from holiday/birthday gifts along with the accumulated interest on same) added to them from working gave us a nice down payment on our house.

Someone will win but the odds are much too much against you winning tht it is not worth it.

Didn’t win the lottery either. But I did wake up this morning in the best country in the world, so that to me is the same thing.

More often than not, I win more when I don’t play the lottery. However, you can’t win the lottery without buying a ticket. Oh the conundrum.

I tend to follow Vickie’s logic.
I only buy a ticket when the Jackpot reaches a ridiculous amount.
Because, what can it Hurt?

I wonder if it’s all those love notes that help him know just what to say?
