I think you have a better chance of getting struck by lightening 3 times in the same place than winning the powerball lottery.

As shitty as my luck is, I will get lucky one day. This just takes away that one in a million lucky hit.

I have no intention of actually winning, but I waste $5 on enough other things.

The link in the first post shows odds of some freak things.... 7 times more likely to be killed by fireworks than to win the lottery.

But how bad would it suck if they actually won...

I mean it's only $5 or $10 to join the office pool, at least if they win, I win...you know...
