Thousands...from all of the money I didn't waste buying scratch offs :D

The lottery is a special tax...on those who are bad at math ;)

My mother had a funny story today. She went to one of those Lottery vending machines and put in a $100 bill because that was all she had and after she puts in the bill she was told that the machine doesnt give change and that she cant get her money back so she was forced to get $100 worth of scratch offs... 1st card she scratches off $300 winner!

A friend of mine put in a $20 thinking it was a single. He took one ticket and walked out. Once out the door he realized he was missing his $20 and ran back to the machine to find a lady with 19 tickets claiming she bought them....
