    Buying lottery tickets doesn’t make you poor, it just means you’re naïve or ignorant of mathematical odds and probability.

      The stress of being poor leads to bad choices, and lotteries give a false sense of hope.

      Hope, in reality, is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man.

      Friedrich Nietzsche
