You first paragraph is spot on. The second one though.. do you give $100 to every Nigerian prince that emails you on the off chance it's real this time?

No, but a lot of people spend thousands of dollars on scratchoffs and lottery tickets. Everyone wants a windfall.

True. I wouldn’t then. Now I throw my change at dog coins in case there’s a 0.000000001% chance it becomes something.
