We did this week, Lotto Max is fifty million this Friday with ten other draws @ 1 million each. I know that I'll never win, the odds are too great. On the other hand, someone will win it and if I don't have a ticket, I can't win.

That's pretty much how I see it. I do Powerball but don't obsess about it. I've won a few bucks but I'm never disappointed when there's nothing either.

Re: Do you ever buy lottery tickets?
Every week, sometimes Powerball, sometimes Mega Millions, depends who's got the bigger jackpot of the week, and scratch offs, I like scratch offs, haven't had a lot of winners on them lately but I've mailed in several for second chance prizes and like the OP said, if you don't try, you never win.

Once in awhile if I am near a place that sells tickets but I don't obsess over it.

I play $6 each week. Same numbers. If I can't afford that, I've got bigger problems.

Re: Do you ever buy lottery tickets?
I keep on saying I'm gonna play, but I either forget or am just not motivated to bother when I do remember....
I did play once, and didn't bother to watch the drawing on TV. I try to not think about how real fucked up it would have been if my numbers were called.

We don't usually get a lot of big payoffs with them, when we DO win it's usually free ticket, or $1 or $2, but a couple of times I did manage to win $40 on a $5 one and a $1 and other times I've won $20 or $25, but not too often.

I play maybe once a year but I'll never allow myself to make a habit of it.
