Believe me, we all wish we could win, but its all a big gimmick, well not a gimmick, but something none of us will probably ever win. Although it is fun just to day dream about what we could do with that money. :icon_rr:

Sometimes it's good if you have an extra buck or so to indulge yourself.  I don't think it's good when people take their food money or rent money and use it for the lottery.

why do u have 2 mortgages and 3 cars? u dont need all that. this is why u are always broke. u dont need to win the lottery.. u just need to sell at least 1 car, rent your other house so u can pay the mortgage on it. thats the only way u will be able to afford all the luxuries u have!@! i am a poor a$$ just making it in this world and u think u have it bad coz u have 3 cars and 2 houses to pay for. try having less then that and still not being able to pay for what u have coz u cant find a job or if u do find one they can u because they went with someone else or they dont need u anymore!! or try being on unemployment for 7+ months and being stuck at home with no money to fill the gas tank and no money to have fun! we're barely making our rent and our landlord is an  :bootyshake:. life isnt fair, but maybe if u didnt buy so much and actually make a monthly budget then u would have money to afford those luxuries u have! we have to do jobs on the side and a lot of them to make it. its so hard and we're on the verge of losing everything.. yeah sounds like ur not even near the edge!

I think in this economy everyone is hoping they can win the lottery.  I personally can attest to that with all the school debt I'm in.  I haven't even graduated yet and I have more than fifty thousand dollars in debt.  It's ridiculous how you try to start your life and are put ten steps back.

Sounds like you've made some bad choices when it comes to money.  Why do you have multiple mortages and 3 cars?!

You don't need to be rich to live well.  It's very, very unlikely that you will ever win the lottery...just be smart with your money!!!

I would  love to win the lotto also! But everything happens for a reason, and it may not happen when u want it to but it'll happpen when its supposed to. My man just won $1000 on a $5 scratch off the other day. And it was great timing. "May not come when you call, but I'm always on time" Such a true staement  :heart:

Hah, how much did he win?
Anyway, as far as the lottery goes, I think it's a waste of money. Your chances of winning something big are so infinitesimally small that you're better off investing in something with a better chance of payoff.

A friend of mine told me years ago to NEVER envy ANYONE who owns all that you do. he said chances are they are in debt up to their A$$  and struggling which sounds like your case...I would love to win the lotto to but only to live comfortably and not go all out...heck ya cant bring material things with you to the grave so why put yourself in such debt in the first place...I dont get why people feel the need to live like the Jones's...just my thoughts

You can't keep it, we all have to die on this earth because we are infested with sin. But Christ gives us more than we will ever need. We will be with Him one day and we will not think about things as this.
