I need to get a ticket ...... just to see if my luck has changed  8)

I just hate to see some people spend money on tickets and think that they will win big,when they don't have the money to be playing.  ::) 
I spend no more than $3 a week. I don't smoke and don't drink,I don't feel bad spending wasting the money. I might just as well throw the money out the window driving down the road. Someone would get a lot more enjoyment finding $2-3 beside the road.

The lottery is a tax on the mathematically challenged - but it helped pay for my kid's college education!  ;D

I should by a ticket more often that I do because my mom used to regularly shake her head and say something about me being one in a million, so seems I'd have a good chance.  :)

      I (my wife) buy a ticket every time it gets over 200 million, aparently 20 million  isn't enough. It's worth the dollar just for the dream you get before they pick the numbers. I like the throwing the money out the window, and makeing more people happy.

I typically buy a ticket or two for the lottery. I admit I bump it up to 10 dollars once the lottery gets over 200 mil.. not really sure why, 20 mil would get me by :).. Sure i prolly wont win it, but I know for a fact I wont win it if i dont buy a ticket.

When I do buy a lotto ticket, I buy two identical. That way if someone else wins, I get two thirds. ;D   Actually, sometimes I'll buy a lotto ticket and put it in a birthday card. If you do that, you gotta buy a duplicate for yourself or you would never forgive yourself if the birthday person won on the ticket you bought. This way, they split it with ya. :)

We occasionally buy a few but not very consistent.
My boss hands them out like candy when we ride together.
He'll buy a block of 10 and hand them over.  He might be hoping I win. :D

I bought one for the big 300 and some million $ prize, kept thinking, "if I win this maybe I can farm for one more year......"  :D :D

I was gonna say, I never did mind waiting in line behind someone buying 30 lottery tickets when I was in college. That money was footing the bill for 3 of my years at UGA :D

Georgia's Hope Scholarship, funded by the Lottery, contributed just under $40,000 to my three daughter's college education.  I only ever bought 1 lottery ticket.  I think that I am way ahead.

I pitched $5 into a pool one time. They paid about $18,000 of my tuition and fees. Not a bad ROI ;)
