Just when I was thinking about quitting buying scratch-off tickets, they pulled me back in again with a big win. I hadn't won anything the last couple of days and was down about $20, which is my limit for losing and I was going to quit. But I was having a difficult day after the visit with mother-in-law, so I splurged and bought a $20 ticket. And it yielded $200! Yay for me!

Lol! I know a relative who won the lottery alone. It was the time when she was totally bankcrupt, and when she was about to live with a relative with her husband, she won the lottery! She bought a land, and built a house for her and her children, then she also build her apartment for passive income.

That's great. Maybe that's karma for putting up with MIL.

Wow! a former roomie of mine won 1000 dollars on a 20 dollar ticket, but not sure how much he spent to do that.

What a windfall that would be! But I don't gamble...even if I wanted to, I just couldn't. I am very glad for you that you seem to win so often!
