It’s because most people who win don’t have good habits with money, and they don’t know how to keep their mouth shut. They tell people, and they spend it frivolously.
You find out fast if your friends or family love you or not.
I mean the very fact that they are spending money on the lottery tells me that chances are they have bad spending habits.
And please, you, yes you, the person that buys lottery tickets and feels the need to explain to me how it’s ok, we get it you’re built different and aren’t addicted or whatever, but there are still so many better things you could be spending it on.
You sound like a recent Econ grad wielding little fun facts you learned to throw in peoples faces. Unnecessarily judgmental. People waste money on all kinds of things every day. It’s not a problem if it isn’t being done to inappropriate levels.
Ok but you sound like an asshole trying to belittle someone for the most basic facts. I love how you talk down and try and frame me as a youth, guessing you’re either pretty young yourself or need to stop with pathetic ageism personal attacks instead of debating the subject.
Also I guarantee you buy lottery tickets and are mad at the second paragraph, stay mad salty kid, spend your retirement fund on little pieces of paper.

“voluntary tax on the poor”

Hurr durr tax on the poor.
The lottery is literally a regressive tax both in concept and practice and I’m not really sure how you can view it any other way.

You chastise me for implying you are young, and then immediately call me young.
You then attack the use of ageism and proceed to do it to me after.
Wow what inconsistent stupidity.
I’m sure there are 100 things you spend money on that we could say the same for.
Jesus, people act like it’s impossible to play the lottery without ruining your life.
It’s possible to do hard drugs and not ruin your life too, but I wouldn’t suggest it.
But you can appreciate that some do it without ruining their life right?
It doesn’t make them good by any means. But people have done drugs and had good lives afterwards, just like playing the lottery.

You can stop any time and prove them wrong
I don’t play the lottery at all.
I just don’t also think that everyone who does is financially irresponsible.
