It’s just another form of gambling. I view all gambling as a waste of time and money.

It’s better just to save money and be frugal.

I never really bought scratch offs before, but I heard you have better odds compare to the national lottery.

I dont know about that but i agree with Monte that any kind of gambling is a bad idea, as the saying goes ‘the house always wins.’

The winner wife is currently divorcing him, I have no idea if it have to do with the money.

I never bother with the lottery. Waste of money for something that has such a small chance of winning.

No I was spending about $400 a month on them and just bought more with wheterver the winnings were. This went on for three years or so.

My biggest hit was around $500 once and it right back into more tickets
