I Played The Lotto And Guess What?
Yeah, that’s right…I lost.
The Mega Millions lottery was up to $333 million dollars, which means that, by law, I had to play.
Okay, not really, but that number was large enough to entice me to get a pool together at work and purchase a few tickets.
The odds of winning was 1 in 175 million, but that didn’t dissuade me from plunking down $5 for the chance of winning (after splitting the win and before taxes) $60+ million.
If I ever do win the lottery, I’d like to purchase:
1: The fastest Corvette in existence
2: A trebuchet to hurl pianos and large kitchen appliances at my annoying neighbors
3: My own downtown art house movie theater
*Sigh* I guess I can still dream, can’t I?
Oddly enough, a few week ago my folks won several thousand dollars in the local lottery, so winning is theoretically possible, just not very probable.
