It should be within reasonable range, like e.g. you won't wake up as a Yedi or Superman tomorrow and world hunger won't be solved just in a few days, etc

Are you even playing the lottery? VERY unlikely if you arent.

About the same possibillity if they are.

which is why i don’t play, but still hope to win. Saves money.

A couple of times per year for the heck of it.

I do it when I have $2.50 over that I won't be sad if I lost.

It won't hurt if I win and it won't really hurt if I do.

It's when you start to put in a lot of cash that it starts to hurt and $10 per year won't get me anywhere.
