Like winning the lottery!

Have you ever thought that somehow lost, and the odds of winning the lottery? " "If you have, you have lots of company. In fact, some consider one of three people in America who is winning the lottery, the only way to financially secure in their lifetime. Horror! This is a shocking statistic on many levels .

Everyone knows that the chance to win the lottery one hell of a long shot ... for all others is that! How far are the odds ofJackpot? to play your real chance of winning the lottery cases they depend on, but the national lottery jackpot Each take your chances are about 1 in 18 million, while multiple state lotteries Have chance to be one of the first 120 million

Can you picture 18 million people? " I can not, but can the public to the Super Bowl. Like many others during the annual Super Bowl? Let's say 100,000. Now imagine 180 Super Bowl will be played at the same time. To accurately reflect the probabilities of allthose people, 180 Super Bowl, one person will be chosen from the crowd, to win the coveted grand prize.

To put it a different perspective, which would collect the addition of the Super Bowl audience to an incredible 180 years only enough people for the opportunity to adjust. You see how ridiculous your remote chance of winning the jackpot are real? " We will think badly of me that some people are in the lottery system for retirement are among the financialSecurity.

Interesting statistics, the law of averages.

In 2004 the average American spent more on lotteries than on reading materials or videos. Lotteries average year was $ 184 spent, the average yield for lotteries only fifty-three cents on the dollar. For the average investor, more than forty years ago, the stock market 811% more than the lottery.

A number of years ago at a family gathering, someone who proudly proclaimshad just won several hundred dollars in the lottery. After the usual congratulations and good wishes helped my uncle Peter said quietly that he was a system that allowed him to always beat the lotteries shown. Of course, we all laughed at the same time we have invited to share his secret of the Holy Grail. Uncle Peter smiled and waved us away, but it reached our interest, and therefore would not be deterred.

After a few minutes of flattery, asked that we played in a regularBasis. Several people admitted that they occasionally play ... But just for fun of course. "How you spend it?" Uncle Peter asked. Consensus on average about fifteen dollars a week. "This is amazing!" gasped Uncle Pietro ", because this is exactly what I all week in advance." Some of the family rolled their eyes and groaned as they saw once where he went. A few others also reveal him to keep the pressure on the formula. He finally relented and shared the secret. "MySecret that comes out every week before this ... I do not play! Every week I play, I'm ahead. "

Under the ridicule and laughter and some good dinner rolls, Uncle Peter, laughing his argument was directed total earned. "When I compare the people who play every week," he said, I really prefer to come first on a HIM. I guarantee after each lottery in the bag for $ 15 bin. If you win and not play, you're out $ 15. In fact, when I compared with peopleThis game, I win $ 15 every week. "

To some extent the logic of his uncle Peter is unassailable. On the other hand, I do not suggest that people should play or not play the lottery. This is the last thing I would do. But I say that everyone should do a big favor and get the "something for nothing mentality, and as soon as possible.

Playing lotteries or gambling are two entirely legitimate forms of entertainment and fun, but only under theControl of the following two reasons;

Number one: when you play you can really afford to lose money. This means not to lose your fortune, your lifestyle or long-term financial health to all.

Number two: (assuming you can answer yes to number one) is really, really love to play.

If you liked the fun, excitement, tension or other to do to you more than you lose the amount of its value, then you win every time he plays.

If youcan not say "yes" on both grounds for games, then you should try to win another way, every week ... Uncle Peter plays follow the example and stop!
