Taking A Chance on A Lottery / myLot

Philippines

October 5, 2016 6:39pm CST

Are you a fan? Have you had your chances of winning? I am amused by the claims of those people who have already won in a lottery. I am never a fan may be because I never have luck when it comes to games of chances. I know many have won and even became millionaires but for sure this is not something for me. How about you? Have you had any experience on it?

I'm not a fan of playing games where the odds are inherently stacked against me. That said, I have been picking up the discarded scratch-off lottery tickets I find... there is a second chance promotion going on, so all of them have a code that I can redeem for entries in that online. I figure that it's completely free for me and just takes a few seconds of time for me to enter, so why not?

I am not winning because I never bet.

I won a couple of times in "keno" but not in the lottery. How I wish I will be a winner.

I almost never play, but I never won anything and I know nobody who became rich playing the lottery.

@cherigucchi the lotto outlet here has a sign that said someone won from a ticket bought at that outlet a few years ago.

Definitely not. It's just an illusion. The chances of winning are so ridiculously small that I prefer to donate a buck to a good cause than to buy a lottery ticket.

I am not exactly a fan. But I do buy lottery from time to time... I won't place big bets..Just a dollar or two.. Hoping that one day Lady Luck finds me and turns a dollar into few thousand for me. I would bring my family for a short trip with the money..

@cherigucchi thanks. I have always been a lucky girl.. at least, I don't lose money when I buy lottery. I win from time to time..from winnings as low as $6 to few hundred dollars. I am waiting for the day when it become thousands...

honestly i still don't understand how our lotto works. as in, i've only tried it maybe 5 times all these years. then when i found out about the scratch it tickets last year, that's what i buy now. but not all the time, just for fun - when i remember, that is, because it's never been a habit of mine.

It has never been also a habit for me to place bets on anything.

I am not the lucky kind, I am also a cheap, frugal person. So I hate to waste money on tickets therefore I will never win because I do not buy.

Do not have negative thinking. Have some hope in life. You will win it. So purchase a lottery ticket, play online Rummy.You will get a good amount. Play all games to the maximum in life and enjoy it in life. What is there in money. If you lose it today you will gain whatever you lost. So play nicely...be a gambler at least in life..
