I never, since I don't think I can win a prize. In China, you'll win 5 million RMB if you get top prize, but It's quite difficult.

Hah, you were so lucky to win the prize. Hope you'll win more in the near future. Good Luck!

There's an expression: "The lottery is a tax on people bad at math" I believe it. However, if I find a lottery in which the expected winnings exceed the cost of the ticket (VERY rare, because when this does happen, usually the odds dictate you will share the prize) then I buy the ticket. So far, I have not bought a ticket.

I do sometimes when they have a special prize but I don't buy very often. I think at most I buy lottery tickets around 4-5 times a year. I don't think I can win anything, but I guess I just want to participate and try my luck! I believe you really need extremely good luck to win that kind of money!

No, I don't buy lottery tickets because I never win. I prefer to buy an icecrem or a juice instead of throwing away my money on lottery tickets.

I normally throw a couple of dollars in our lottery pool at work. I figure its only a few dollars to pay for a chance at win a big prize. We have won small amounts that we usually just put right back into the lottery pool to try for a bigger prize. It is always nice to dream about winning a big jackpot.

I do not buy lottery tickets. The chance of me winning is so small that I would be spending so much on tickets each week that I would much rather use the money for something else.

I do buy lottery tickets since last year but until now, I still have no luck in winning any prizes. :) It is quite difficult to win any prize because I only buy like 3 tickets per time. Others buy more than 10 tickets but they still couldn't win anything.
