The other day I posted a piece titled More than You Want to Know about the Lottery. It talked about how playing the lottery is a waste of money (no new news there). After that post, I received a comment that I thought was both cute and offered a unique way to "save" money:
Sometimes I'll play what I call the anti-lottery. I'll pick a bunch of numbers without buying a ticket. For every number that doesn't win, I consider it a win of $1 for me (assuming the ticket would have cost a dollar). I only lose if there are some winning numbers. I lose big if one of them gets all of the numbers. So far no major loss. It's a good way to save money :-)
That's a new one to me. But I like it! ;-)
There are smarter ways of playing the lottery. I would like to point out a very cool program that I am a member of. Basically, you can get paid to play the lottery which is VERY cool. If you check out http://www.LottoMagik.com and click on “Income” it explains everything. To be a captain sounds expensive ($50 a month) but with just two team captain referrals you are already getting paid to play the lottery every month. Plus, since you are on a team, you increase your odds of winning. I’m not saying you have to join, or that you even have to give it the time of day. I’m just letting you know that there are options out there for playing the lottery smartly.
