That's me. I rarely buy lottery tickets. At most maybe three $1
scratch tickets a month. Low winning amount but higher chance of
winning. Then I did buy one of the powerball tickets last week for
$2.

I'll probably buy another one tomorrow for this much higher one.

I never dream of winning but the so slight chance is good
entertainment value for the small investment.

And hey...the last two $1 scratch tickets did win me $8. It's fun for
the easily amused.
