When the lottery folks were campaigning for the lottery vote, we were promised huge sums of money for education.
You know this is for the children!
Yea right, the lottery has paid some to the education funds, but nothing at all like what was promised.
I have yet to buy a single ticket. At the convenience store-gasoline-liquor store place I bought my gas and beer, they also sold lottery tickets. I would see several regulars in there buying lottery tickets on a regular basis. The never won much more the token amounts to give them hope.
At Porsche Parade every banquet meal has door prizes. From small items to sets of tires. In 20 years and untold banquets I have yet to win anything. I see other people I know that have won multiple times, and first time attendees win.
At the very first Mercedes Benz club dinner they had 20 people in attendance, and and 18 door prizes. My wife and I did not win anything. My random luck is just not good at all.
I have been very lucky in that I had two wonderful parents, I was born in the greatest country ever, and I have had some smart decisions to be in life where I am. So in that respect I am lucky. I have been very luck in health.
I will never win a drawing, so why bother.
