Re: What's the appeal?

(Anonymous) 2022-12-19 04:06 am (UTC)(link)
Well, lotto is literally gambling so the appeal and mechanism is the same: the dream that you *might* be the lucky person to win the big prize, combined with the dopamine hit you get playing the game (which can be addictive). Those two things basically mean it's a fun experience for a lot of people, even if they intellectually know their chances of winning big are miniscule.

As for scratch cards, if they're what I think they are (they're called scratchies here), the chances to win small amounts of cash (like $3-$10) are a lot higher than the chances to win the big prizes. So getting some $, even a small amount, for essentially nothing might appeal to some people as well.
