I mean really, you have a better chance of being bitten by a shark in your living room, 20 miles from the nearest body of water, while watching Dr. Phil.

People played lottery because they were either curious or tempted by the winnings they will get if they won. They think they might won as there is also a chance, even when it is small.
People played lottery might be the influence under their friends, family or relatives as the people around them might be winning quite a lot and they thought they might just be the next lucky chap. =p
They might have no other ways to get money, and thus, try their luck...

I play just for the heck of it. When I buy a lottery ticket, I don't do it thinking I might win. The odds are too great to even think about it.

Yeah, how dare those ***-holes get enjoyment out of something they find exciting. We should just get rid of the lottery all together! It's not like it brings a small bit of hope and excitement to a lot of a people. I mean if you don't like it, how can anyone else?

What you do mean? It's a 50/50 chance. You either win or lose. Since I lost about a million times don't you think I'm due?

People play the lottery as there IS a chance that they will win. A SMALL chance, yes, but they could still win. And one thing is for sure. I can garantee that if you don't play you WON'T WIN.

The lottery is a special tax on people who don't know how to do math.

My hubby does & he has enjoyed spending those $millions many times over in his imagination...
PS: My mom won $10,000 once on a scratch ticket, so she has beaten the odds.
