Do you buy lottery tickets?

When we first got the state Lottery in TX, I played it some. Tried to do multiples with some sort of (yet undermined system, years later). No wins. When I'd win a dollar or two on the scratch-offs, I'd reinvest that into another ticket that won nothing.

Every now and then, I'll do a QuickPick and let it got at that. Won $3.00 a while back. At least, I know the "charity" it's going to. Now, if that 20-year-old in FL plays his pennies right, he'll put the majority into some kind of interest-bearing//appreciating financial instrument. An indexed annuity might be good. Then live off of the interest and make philantrophic donations. Bad thing is that some people who have those big winnings have usually squandered it or killed themselves doing that.

Best of luck to the winner!

I've heard it said that most lottery winners have less 5 years after the win the big one than before.
 
Very nice house Peter but I would've taken it without all that cold nasty white stuff all over the yard. :poke:
 
You had some beautiful hair back then, Peter.
I did, didn't I? Where did it all go?
