I only bought one time... I lost so I never bought another.

Like they say... you have to play to win... so I gave it a try and lost... but, then I don't gamble...

At work there are always pools of people buying tickets... I think it's around a $100 a week and nothing to speak of after all these years.

The lottery is a tax on people who cannot do math.
