Re: What's the appeal?

[(Anonymous)]

As someone whose parents explained the lotto to me as "a tax on people who are bad at math," I am bad at math enjoy buying tickets for the really big jackpots, even though I'd have more chance of surviving a parachuteless fall out of a passenger jet at cruising altitude than of winning more than a couple bucks.

It's a cheap, almost no effort way to buy a day of silly speculation on, say, how many politicians I could buy with my hypothetical winnings.

I don't buy scratchers though. I do have a family history of addiction, although not to gambling, so that's why I only buy a ticket when a jackpot is in the hundreds of millions range. An occasional thing, not a habit.

Scratchers are available all the time, but the potential payoff is lower and less fun and the potential to waste more money on them and it becoming an addiction and not fun at all is too high for me personally.

But for some people, they're probably just a fun silly thing. And maybe more fun than other gifts—I don't drink coffee, would have no use for a spa day or random selection of bodycare products, etc, and those are common gifts.
