@cautionarytale I make a deal with myself—-if I win, I will give 20% to charity and if I lose, I donate twice the amount I spent on losing tickets to #MannaFood or another charity. Keeps me from spending too much on statistical, improbable odds of winning. And the $ goes to the state Education Fund. When my son was young, I explained it to him by asking: if you spend $1 a week for a year and win $50, are you winning or losing? #Gambling #Lottery
