It’s your choice, but really, all you are doing is paying other people’s tax for them (think about it).
You have LESS chance of being hit by lightning. How often is that going to happen IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE let alone this Thursday?
In fact, you ARE being hit by “lightening” your wallet!
OK. If it gives you a little lift in life, go ahead. But you are better off betting on the horses.
You’ll still lose in the long run, but you’ll have plenty of laughs and wins with your losses. And lots of things to try.
Don’t bet what you can’t afford to lose, because like my husband, you WILL lose at the races over time. If that wasn’t the case, bookmakers would have become extinct centuries ago.
Poker machines? You’re kidding right? Put good money in – take less money out. Over and over and over again. Not for me.
One lottery thing I do, though, is buy scratch tickets for friends in hospital. Better than grapes. Every morning for a week or so after your visit they have another scratch. Keeps them looking forward to another day in hospital, which can get quite boring.
