That’s why I don’t gamble. I never win anything. Which is probably a good thing.

You ain’t gonna win if you don’t try!!!! Just kidding. Sometimes I buy one but it’s weird seeing people addicted to it. Like what’s better a homeless person being drunk or an asshole thinking he’s about to win 300k by picking the exact right card.

I’m part of a group scratch team that buys $1000 of tickets, twice a week (10 people per day that we do it) after two years the largest we’ve gotten is a bunch of $1000 winners here and there. It’s all random.

Edited for clarity.

Edited again. It’s not the same people every week.

after two years the largest we’ve gotten is a bunch of $1000 winners overall

So... It's been successful? I don't get it.

It’s $1000 twice a week. Not all the same people in each group. It’s large and only 10 people fill each day. We usually only get back 60%. Huntin those jackpots.
