And now, back to the lottery quote, do you agree?
I partially agree, because in the end there will be at least one people who does not understand math at all, and yet they decided to partake in lottery and hit the jackpot.
I consider myself to be a person who has a good perception on math, I went to college and had to approve some courses on mathematics and laws of statistics. That being said, I prefer gambling and play casino games and sportbetting instead playing lottery, since there are more chances for me to have control of the numbers and the percentage of profit is moderate. In lotteries the percentages to hit the prize are microscopic but the rewards are giant...
It is an issue of personal preferences and when suits the gambler.
I could be wrong, but even if more people had knowledge of the laws of statistics, there would still try to play lottery, but with less frequency, specially if we talk about populations in developing countries where unfortunately there are more people seeking for money.
