Happy International Lottery Day!
Do you play? Do you think it’s silly? Have you ever won anything on a ticket?
I’ll start: I got a lottery ticket for a co-worker for Christmas and he won $40. I was slightly miffed at first, but I was super happy he got something substantial.

I’ve definitely bought a lottery ticket a few times for fun, especially when the jackpot gets crazy high. Who hasn’t daydreamed about winning big, quitting their job, and traveling the world? 🌎✈️💸
But I always remember it’s basically a cheap thrill — like buying a chance to dream for a couple of days. The odds are wild, so I never spend more than I’d be okay losing on a coffee.
So yeah, I’ll play once in a blue moon… and then happily go back to reality when my numbers (predictably) don’t hit 😄.

Kelvin, I am the same way. And that’s a very wise way to look at that. Thanks for sharing!
