Do you play the lottery? Why do most blacks give so much money in a lifetime away on the lottery? Do they indeed help the economy or just make a few higherups rich? Pic related, OC black cringe

I buy an occasional scratch ticket, but more often tend to receive them as Christmas/birthday gifts. I've won some money, but not a great sum. It's gambling - all in good fun in moderation.

I have many vices but I find gambling abhorrent

Only if the jackpot breaks 250m. Even then only sometimes.

mexican people have the same vice, we often hear in mexico the following sentences.

>once I hit the jackpot, I will buy a house!
>I hope to win the lottery, that's the only way I could send my children to college

and so on...

Lottery = stupid tax

They don't know any better take it easy on them

That post isn't really cringy, in fact it's probably the only way the lottery will ever help a community.

My black step-father (cuck! lib!) buys two tickets every paycheck

I also hold many vices, but gambling is a statistical favor for the house so I do not partake because I understand it's a business

No, you get out there and fucking work, that's what helps. These people spend most of their SSI on scratch-offs

>blacks
You mean whites? I don't know any black people for the record

I put about 100$ a year into the lottery.. probably end up paying 70 in total after the small winnings

Once every few months or so. The time my wife and I spend speculating what we would do is worth the $2 even though we will never win.

>falling for the luck jew

I bought a few scratchers with $20 because I was bored the other week. I won $40, so I came out on top. I was going to put that money back into scratchers, but my wife said to stop being a nigger and not waste that money, so I bought $40 worth of beer. She was cool about that.

? Are working people not going to be the ones paying for a raffle worth 200 dollars of lottery tickets? For a community organiztion?

Can you cite the statement about whole SSIs, our does your ass like to talk on anonymous nepali crochet forums?

Gambling is not that bad, it gives you higher test because it puts you in a high risk situation. It's only unhealthy for addicts but there's a lot of support for those people, if you're an average a hand here and there won't hurt and hey maybe you'll hit the jackpot and walk away with 9k.

If everyone in the community worked, they could simply donate to the cause and not need to do fund raisers.

Our church has a yearly carnival event in October. It generally takes $1,200 to put on the whole thing. We used to do fund raisers, but the amount of time I would spend doing fund raisers was more than the amount of time I would earn if I was working instead. So, now our family just funds the whole thing out of pocket. We get a tax write off, and the church does not waste a bunch of time doing fund raisers.

If I were to hazard a guess I would imagine that it's spurred by a feeling of hopelessness in traditional forms of self-advancement (education, jobs, etc) so they put their faith in games of chance, seeing it as having a higher probability to achieve financial success.

I don't see what that has to do with the lottery

They sell tickets in your county, yes?

What jobs in bumfuck Missouri allow you to fund a church

What do you have at the carnival?

I'll play when PowerBall or mega millions gets over a certain amount and then I only grab a ticket or two. If I'm playing a game of chance I prefer gambling at a casino where I at least have some control

They could be spending the money on so many other things than the lottery, this goes with all addictive luxuries, cigarettes, drugs, alcohol, ect. They impoverish neighborhoods.

As for the fundraiser itself, not a bad idea, but plays into peoples desire to hit the jack pot, rather than to make their own jack pot.

Cost of living is much lower in bumfuck Missouri. I would imagine I could do the same operation for $600-$800 there.

2 generators and flood lights, several bounce houses, food (hot dogs, nachos, chips, pop corn, ect.), prizes for our games, decorations, advertisement, ect. Everything is free of charge and the community seems to love it. We've been working more for community out reach and are hoping to install a laundry and bathroom with shower/toiletries for people who may need it. First step to getting back on your feet is a warm shower and a clean outfit.

Gambling with your friends over small sums of money or trivial shit is fun as fuck.

Gambling against an establishment like a casino or playing scratch tickets is fucking retarded.

Pretty cool, I gotta tell my local church about this

I work at turkey hill a convience store and the only people who buy tickets are old white guys and people on disability, workerscomp, or any government pays my bills type

Follow up those old people who sit at one slot for hours and dont git jackpot keys to winning

I play Mega Millions and Powerball twice a week. I laugh when people say "Nobody ever wins the lottery," bitch I win every week. I generally get $10-$20 dollars worth of winners a month, and come close to or break even over the course of a year. The motto of it being a tax for stupid people is funny to me anyways.

I buy magic the gathering packs sometimes
its like playing the lottery only if you lose sometimes the card is still functional just not worth much

Just buy the desired cards on eBay. You will spend less over all and get exactly the card you want.

Gambling is degenerate.

Extremely rarely I buy a cheap scratch off or two just for fun.

Never played scratchers. I used to go to the casino a lot, had incredible luck. Always left with more money than I came in with. Shit, the first time I did really poorly I was down to my last dollar- all I could do with it was play a stupid slot machine. Put the dollar in, won the jackpot, got $300 bucks and went right back to blackjack.

Then one night I finally lost more money than I won, so I stopped completely and haven't gambled since.

Black people are unbelievably stupid with money.

niggers are the type of consumers that kikes want.
fucking niggercattle man

This. Normally I'll pick a couple up during the christmas season as fun stocking-stuffers.

>Why do most blacks give so much money in a lifetime away on the lottery?
Because they couldnt make it in sports or rap and this is their final alternative to actually working for it.

I bought a $5 scratcher once, and won another Scratcher.

....Then with that card, won another scratcher. It was sort of embarrassing going right back to the clerk at the super market and having them help me after just getting a scratcher.

On the next round, I won $40.

I decided to pocket $20 (netting myself $15 after expenses) and try my luck with four more scratchers ($5 each).

Two losses, a "Win $10" card, and another "win a free scratcher" card, which ended up being a loss.

Made a total of $25 in 10 minutes.

Now as for super mega lotto, I have no fucking clue how the rules work. "Pick number, mega number, super ultra side pick double nigger pick number"... and so forth.

The poorer the neighbourhood, the more scratchcards are sold in the shop. Makes me sick. How do these scum get all the money for lotto and scratchcards?

there's so many more enjoyable ways of gambling that lottery

would rather bet on football or playing poker than get a scratchcard

By selling EBT benefits for 1/2 value in cash to shitstain store owners that use them at big chain grocery stores and then resell what they buy at triple the cost (netting them 600% profiit)
