You can't win if you don't play. And you won't win if you do play.

The odds are against most people...but that doesn't stop us from playing and throwing away money on lottery or scratch tickets.
If you go into it not expecting to win and earn back the money you spent on the tickets, then you won't be disappointed when you don't win. If you happen to win, it will come as a shock and surprise that will be the highlight of your day, week, year or life (depending on the size of the jackpot). :-)

Who knows you might just be that 1 in 14million.
@ tweety you have a better chance of winning the lottery then being struck by lightning twice so your fact is completely false

Sorry, I am one that believes the following:
The Lottery is a tax for people who are bad at math.
Good luck anyway.

Yes. If you purchase all 14 million combinations of numbers then you are guaranteed to scoop the jackpot every week.

Eventually, yes. You may not get the millions of dollars but you have a good chance at the hundreds and thousands. Just keep at it.

It's not likely.
The lottery is a tax on people who can't understand math.
