On TV last night there was a short piece - asking low income people if they were spending more on playing the lottery or if now they spent less. Everyone they asked say, yes, they were spending more - save for one who was spending about the same.

Spending more on the lottery because they need the win money? Stupidity in action. Very sad.

I spend $10 every 10 draws (3 draws each week) for the WA State lottery. Did that when I was employed and employable unlike now, never seen throwing away more money will do anything except increase the odds of my being a loser.
