I'd really like to get on well with my brothers-in-law but they are all annoying and they know I think so:/

Screw them
I'd rather win the lottery quite frankly

Being abducted by aliens.

Losing the lottery.

Ah but yet the only true way to lose is to not play, because without playing we can never win!

But that so is because the topic itself is defined within the context of the lottery. A non player does not care about losing.... as the dollar would be the loss.

Or 2.50 I think for the mega lotto numbers.

Also a winner can't exist without a loser, the winners should be thankful the losers are around, they wouldn't be winners otherwise.

what if the person who never plays finds a ticket?

reply

Well thats a potential double win!

A while ago down here a guy won quite a bit of money on one of those scratch tickets. They did a story on him as he was really down on his luck before winning. Anyway, they got him to reenact the whole thing by buying another scratch ticket, when he said, "I've won" they thought he was acting.

Nope. He actually won another huge prize.

If you saw that in a movie you would say bullshit.

How much did he win?

I don't recall now but the top prizes on those things in Australia are usually $100,000 to $250,000.
