It never fails, I head on over to the local convenience store and there is a line of people waiting for lottery tickets. I used to think nothing of it, but lately I have become very anti lotto and really annoyed by the whole culture.

How can these people not get it? It’s so rare that you win, but at the same time they keep playing. Then they say “scratch-offs are different”, baloney! Yeah, Instead of it costing a Dollar, it’s more like 3-5 or even 10! Then when they win (on the last one) $5, theYeah right, save your money!y justify it and go buy more.

  • About the Chef

    I am different than the average geek and a hell of a lot tougher. A tech geek that actually loves the business side (imagination constantly being crunched with logic and fundamentals) which makes a deadly combination...IMO ;) Currently doing anything I can so I don't have to get a job and end up in the "rat race".
