But; what you DON'T know is the names of MORE THAN 2 million LOSERS who paid a dollar for that 'lucky' man could 'win' a $1,000,000.
And, after the lovely various gummints gets done with his 'winnings' he'd be LUCKY to have half of it left!
It always amused me to see some welfare mom spending her last twenty bucks on lottery tickets thinking she had twenty times more chances to win had she only spent $1. Little did she realize, or understand apparently, that her statistical chances for winning with twenty tickets versus one was so infinitesimally minimal and that with 25 MILLION to 1 odds, even a THOUSAND tickets wouldn’t help much. I think the lottery is little more than an extra tax on poor people.
