In my opinion, the lottery is a fairly simple game of chance, which with the constant purchase of lottery tickets gives the gambler hope of winning. Someone buys lottery tickets all his life, but dies with this hope. Some people hit the jackpot by accidentally buying a lottery ticket.

I used to buy lottery tickets too, but I got bored with it, because for two years of playing the lottery I never won good money. And to be honest, I have more fun playing slots than constantly buying lottery tickets and keep hoping.

I often see different lotteries held in our city; you only need to buy a ticket, and according to the promises of the organizers, you will win something valuable. But I have never seen people who would win such lotteries by accident; I still tend to think that all lotteries are money thrown to the wind. It is quite possible to win small prizes, but large sums, according to my observations, are won by those who organize such lotteries.

Also, lotteries are costly, compared to other methods of catching a jackpot. In my country, moment lottery ticket cost starts from 5 EUR, or you pick numbers in card for 5 EUR and wait for a week for a draw. 5 EUR can be busted within seconds, when with same balance gambler can play different games for hours. Usually big wins from such 5 EUR lotteries are 30-50k worth new car or 1-10k fiat. With 5 EUR deposit in online casino, I could get more fun and the prize would be more realistic to get

But we know that amount that could be potentially be won up with 5 euros is really that not something will really be in equal on what you can possibly get on betting on lotteries and this what makes them interested on doing so.We can't blame out those people who do really likes on betting on lotteries on which we do know that potential earning is really that big.As for winning then it do simply need up all the luck in the world for you to hit up jackpots.Theres nothing wrong on betting on lotteries as long you are really just that using the amount you can afford to lose then you should really be that finel.

In the United states and in some other countries around the world, lotteries are a big deal. They constitute a major part in shaping their cultural and economic atmosphere. Of course they are also operated legally. Wikipedia says that Americans spent $5 billion on various lotteries in 2017 and  $77.7 billion in 2018.

I have observed that there is a U.S., lottery fever from looking at regular headlines about lucky winners. Recent examples include:

- A Virginia woman who became a two-time lottery millionaire after winning $1 million.
- Another Virginian who won a $3 million Mega Millions jackpot with a ticket purchased just weeks earlier.
- A California resident who claimed a $1 billion Powerball prize, one of the largest jackpots in history.
- A man who won $2.6 million on a scratch-off ticket gifted to him by his father.
- A woman who quit her job after scratching off a $90,000 lottery windfall.

If you are reading this and you actively participate in lotteries as an regular player, these kind of lottery success stories can evoke a lot of emotions and responses. Which of these range of thoughts and feelings do you experience;

• my time is near
• it can't happen to me
• I wish I could win, even if it meant lower jackpots
• Indifferent

I don't take part in lotteries much and whenever I do it is absolutely only for fun.
It's interesting to see the above people winning such huge prices but I am more interested in the after match of it.
What did those people do with the winning amount and how their life changed.

People are looking for easy ways to make money everywhere and one of the ways that comes to mind is through lottery. You can't stand a chance if you don't perticipate so that is the reason why the number of lottery players keeps increasing to get a chance at winning. News of lottery wins travels fast and people will hear it and become encouraged to try their luck too, in the end it's only very few among the multitude of tickets that will win. There are too many lotto shops and kiosks in many cities in my country and the numbers of bettors keeps increasing. People shouldn't put all their hopes to get rich from anything that is related to gambling because it takes luck to win not their skills and efforts.

It is what many people want to make money. They will use the easy way to make money but that will not guarantees them to make money if they use gambling especially using lottery to make money. They maybe not understand that buying and winning from the lottery is not easy because they must have luck.

They still buying lottery as they hear and read some people can win from lottery. They don't realizes how long those people waits for their turn to win so they still buying the lottery. They must knows that they better not to spend too much money to buy the lottery.

After all, they should use the other ways to make money and not rely on any gambling games. That can only make them lose their money and have more problem after they end their gambling activity.

I never trust these offline national lotteries and the reason is that i never seen any person whom i know have won these lotteries. Yes a lot of people will buy these lotteries (because the entry fee is too low) and there will be people who are declared winner of these lotteries but i still do not trust them.

I feel that the result of these lotteries are manipulated too, meaning either the winners declare are their near and dear ones or the result are bogus, and the winners of lotteries are fake and do not exists in real.

I feel indifferent and completely unphased when I come across people winning the lottery because I know that it's just about luck and not everyone can get lucky with it, the worst mistake you can make is trying to start playing because you heard stories of people that win, firstly this is going to come with a high level of obsession and addiction, all you will think about is trying to hit the jackpot like others, lottery wins are unexpected you can never go for it and win successfully it's just going to happen whenever you are lucky
