I don't play the lottery though, since I like living in semi-poverty. Keeps things interesting.

I know! i was super psyched too and that was just for 12 bucks if had won 12 million i think i would've kissed the cashier (she was cute) and ofc she wouldn't have mind cause im a f*ckin millionaire.
The appeal to me it's not be filthy rich it's more like to be set for life that's why i play the powerball sometimes.

All kidding aside, I've played PB when it was a huge amount, and daydreamed about what I'd do if I won. Not many people haven't done that, or at least thought about it, but in the end it's just false hope, and it makes the everyday struggle seem like more of what it is... a struggle. So, I just happily go on about my life without mind-****ing myself, and I don't even pay attention to lottery stuff at all, and I'm pretty happy most of the time.

I get what you mean, ive seen ppl who are way too into the lottery buying 5 tickets from different lotteries and superstitiously using their "lucky numbers" every time and that sh*t is just sad..
it's like they desperately want to be saved from being low/middle class the rest of their lives. that's why i play too but i don't have alot of expectation that's actually gonna happen.. would be nice though.

My older sister won the lotto twice over the course of the last 12 years with the same numbers (kids birthdays). It's flat payout of $100K each time so she ended up with a nice $50K check after taxes both times.
