That is not entirely accurate. No ticket equals 0 chance to win. With my 1 dollar investment in my retirement I now have a very good 1 in 80,000,000 chance of winning. I'll take those odds to the bank. I am quitting my business today. Heck with this stuff!

On a serious note some fool in Wi I understand bought 5k worth of tickets for last Saturday's drawing. I guess she had to go to 3 different outlets before someone would even sell them to her. Geez you would think at least you could take the money to Vegas and do black or red on the roulette wheel. At least you have some chance of winning.

DMA,

As long as you don't bet the farm, or get addicted to it, no harm is done, and some one wins it eventually. It may be a "crap shoot", but needn't be a problem for anyone.
