790 lottery tickets is a LOT. At 1 ticket a week, that's 15 years. And if you can't do without the $50 a year, you are in dire straits!

It's incredible.. people will spend $25 on a meal then complain about how lottery tickets are a waste of money.

$25 is not a lot of money for a meal.

Actually, he said that's he's saved ten times as much which would be $7900. With 2 drawings a week at $1 a ticket, that almost 76 years worth of lottery tickets.

Sadly, the lottery hasn't been around for 76 years. So, not only is Ornery bad at math, he sucks at history too.

I love the sight of self-righteous elitists owning themselves in the morning.

Who says people only buy one ticket?

And most areas have multiple drawings a day, not week.

I hate how gamblers, who put their money up at 1%-2% vig, or good poker players, who have a positive expectation, are viewed by society as degenerates, but people who play the lottery, who are giving up 50% of their investment in expectation, are not.

Right, because all the people who buy lotto tickets buy just one for one drawing. They don't spend $50 a pop on multiple Super 7 Encore Extreme Extra Plus Platinum Super Draw Chance Bling Bling Edition tickets. NevAr! 😛
