I see so many people buy lottary from the shops and they see each and every day that is there any number of that lottary either elected or not. If they loose not if, almost they loose their money for this buying lottary every day but still they won't leave their hope. Do you think from that lottary they become rich in a short period?

I think it not a bad idea. But it is "the worst idea". They should think about chance to win (but absolutely, the chance of win is almost zero) when they buy it for money.
Why they repeat their bad activity? Yes, i personally think that the lottery is fun (boosted your hope for a while)...

Lottery is a game of luck. People are convinced that they could win millions in just ticket. There are some people who won the lottery but after a year or so they end up much poor that before the win the lottery, they sell their house, have health problem and so on..., they Definetely it can make people became rich in an instances but as things that comes easy it will be gone soon.

I don't think that it is easy to earn from the lottery. If you ever earn some money from it, the money won't be so much. You can't expect that you will win the first prize of the lottery. If you buy it for fun, it is OK. But if you use all your earning to expect the first prize, then you will be disappointed.

the chances of getting rich through lottery would be an enormous amount of luck! one can never know if you're lucky enough to win it. i play the lottery with the dreams of getting rich, but at the same time in the hopes i am helping the government to earn funds intended for projects for the poor and needy.

from a personal viewpoint, I don't think so. I had a relative who does participate in the lottery, event though he has a stable job and lives comfortably. He spends his pare money in lottery, hoping he would win. He hasn't won anything so far, but it does not stop him. For me, it's not even a productive method of earning. It;s just like a cash in a flash. and the cash will be gone and spent in a less amount of time.

Not at all. First here in Canada, you have a higher chance of being struck by lightning twice in the same spot then winning the lottery, and yes that does happen.
Second, the Lottery is a voluntary tax for those who are bad at math. It is just a big cash grab for the government.
Someone has to win, it could be you, but most people play for 40-50 years, and don't even break even.
at least that is my view on the matter.
Sincerely and With Appreciation.

A lottery is an idea to be rich but it's not a great idea. Yeah, it's instantaneous but I'd rather choose hard work and perseverance towards life than that because it teaches me how to respect the money I earn, which in turn, relieves me of being affluent.

I don't think it is a good idea to buy lottery to become rich. The probabiliy to win lottery is very low. May be we need to spend a lot of money and time to try.
After a lot of trial, may be will win one or two time but after deduct the money we lose before. We are still losser.

Maybe lottery maybe a fun way of getting money but really I don't think it's a good idea because I would need to be a lucky girl to win lottery every time I play, but chances of me winning lotto would be unlikely.

A lot of people DO win the lottery. I wouldn't get obsessed with the idea. But, if you have $1 or $2 to spare once in a while, what harm does it do? It really could be your way out of a big mess.

If you havethat kind of tough luck well there is no reason that you can't try it. The chances of winning is very slim. if we will just check the probability of winning the jackpot, it is easier for a person to be stuck by a lightning while walking on a stormy day than to win the jackpot. Very tough luck. I have seen a lot of people alloting budget to buy lottery tickets for that chance to win for years and guess what? what they spent is much bigger than what they have won in the past years.

Hi!
I don't believe in lottery. If it is like in Norway (where i live) it is seven numbers to get that is giving you the chance of 0,000019% or something. That is almost the chance of zero. So i recommend to not use your money on betting on lottery's. If this was helpful - please mark as best respond!
Thanks,
