your odds of winning have nothing to do with the amount of people who buy tickets

Imo the issue with that is there's not really such a thing as a truly random number generator on a computer. It's always based on some algorithm

I think in this situation it is appropriate to eat the rich so to speak.



Also most hedge fund managers are dumb fucks who only got there by having connections. Like 80%+ probably. In general they are no better at picking investments than random luck would be.

I oscillate between 'buying a lotto ticket can be some cheap entertainment/thrill' and 'the lotto is a tax on people who don't understand math' depending on my mood but in the end i think it just comes down to 'I'm trying to get this red bull before work and you're loving buying lotto tickets and scratchers for 10 minutes at the counter at 7:40am like a goddamn junkie' so imo gently caress the lotto
