Ok i want to know which one of you guys is sitting on the winning ticket and do you want to adopt a 70 year old kid. Time is ticking you know gotta claim it by June.
My entire family both sides, has payed the "poor tax" their entire lives, playing "their numbers" (birthdays, anniversaries etc....). Fond childhood memories of being sent to the store to buy tickets and smokes with a note from my parents lol.Wasn't me. I never buy loto tickets. NEVER.
I'm the party pooper, I have never purchased a lottery ticket in my life.
I've also heard of it referred to as a "math tax"Of course there is the old quote "lotteries are a tax on the poor" which I think has a lot of truth to it. Never the less I do occasionally succumb to temptation and buy a ticket when theres a large pot. Never won anything beyond free tickets or the odd $5 or $10 prize.
We always called it the poor tax, but math tax is pretty fitting too. Run a compound interest calculation on a $5 contribution a week for 50 years.....I've also heard of it referred to as a "math tax"
You only buy tickets if you're bad at math.
Back in college, I had a dream that I won cash for life from a ticket bought at a specific Beckers store in Oshawa. The dream was so vivid and real, the next day I went and bought every single cash for life ticket they had in the store. I didn't win anything lol. Whoever said follow your dreams, probably meant in a more philosophical way.I've read of many stories where winners claimed they actually dreamt they won the lottery before going out and getting a winning ticket. Myself, I only have night mares!

I know it's a bad investment. I'll still buy one every few months just to dream though.
