Title says it all. Do you ever play the lottery and if not then why don't you? I personally have never played it, however I know a ton of people who have (including my dad). I never have since the odds of winning are awful, however I can see why some people play it. That and supposedly the money that you use to play the lottery actually go to a good cause.

I never have played the lottery, but I have been tempted quite a few times to though.

I was tempted of playing it a few weeks ago when the jackpot was 380 million dollars.

I'm not exactly sure, but it was extremely high. Like it kept going up since no one had won it.

I used to scratch some lottery tickets here and there, but that's pretty much it.

My parents do, but I don't at the moment. After I start working I will though... a small chance of striking the jackpot is better than none at all.

Due to legal issues, I don't for the time being. My parents do though, always going for that power ball and mega millions. I see scratch offs as a easier way to make some money. Waste a lot more on them though.

Little Polska lol. One thing I find crazy is people who have the money and end up spending a ton of money on more tickets. Floyd Mayweather spent $20,000 on tickets when the jackpot was so high in the hopes of winning it lol. Lucky ****

The rich should leave the jackpot to those who are less fortunate. I detest people like that who are already rich but only think about getting more money through means like this.

I don't know anything about him aside from the fact that he's one of the highest paid athletes in the world. You should read the article on ESPN about him, it's a few days old!

The only way I will ever start playing the lottery on a regular basis is if I have the money to throw around on it. Otherwise, no way.
