Combined would basically be my net worth/resume when you collectively take: Lottery tickets, raffles, contests and casino slots. In a nutshell, I’m a loser. I never won anything outside of sporting competition in my life. Yet somehow I stil play an occasional Lottery game, never really believing I’ll ever win, I think I only play for the dream . I honestly wouldn’t be happy if I won $250 million dollars. I’d be miserable. I wouldn't know what to do with myself and I’d probably mistrust everyone who tried to be close to me.
I had a $10 bill in my car ash tray, and for the life of me, I still don’t know what made me buy this scratch card last week. Who cares, I was yelling at the top of my lungs at every $50 box I scratched. I had visions of a spoiled rap star throwing money away and acting like an utter fool like on MTV cribs.. Ya know, bling, bling wuzzup my nigga don’t call me ching ;) So I scratched 3 $50 boxes - $10 = $140. It isn’t a whole lot of money, barely enough for a bag of groceries.
So after finding 3 places that would cash my game card. I just had fun with the dirty money
- a pair of sneakers
- Gave $5 to a homeless dude(give and you shall receive)
- $20 worth of groceries
- a few dog treats
- and $30 to play a little more, use the banks money so to speak .
I personally knew 2 people that won the Fantasy 5, which at the time was approximately a $250,000 grand prize before taxes. One guy paid off his house and spent it on a few toys, a car and such. The other guy was an old man who use to work at a mom/pop sandwich shop where I use to eat lunch. One day he disappeared and his co-worker told me he left his wife and ran away to travel with a younger woman 1/2 age his . Here's a tip, if you're going to leave your wife, put your lottery ticket in a safe deposit box, and wait until after the divorce settlement, buhahaha
Look, I always read about these people who hit millions on the Lottery and Powerball. When they're interviewed by the media they're always asked what they're going to do. They'll say something like: "Well, I'm glad I won, bla bla bla, but you know, I'm still going to report to work tomorrow"
C'mon we all know that's bullshit, I mean really. Any Jackass that says they'd go back to work after hitting the Lottery doesn't deserve to win the Lottery, I might never put on pants again if I hit the BIG one.
Regretfully will have my pants on early tomorrow morning
