Lottery-mania. Ha.

What a wet dream for curmudgeons.

I really have to laff at these guys who go, Yeah, when the jackpot was only a million, I wasn’t interested. It wasn’t WORTH it. But now that it’s a HUNDRED million, they’re startin’ to get my attention. Think I’ll go down there and get me a ticket.

Ha-ha-ha!

As if you’d know what do with a HUNDRED million any more than you’d know what to do with ONE.

Look, chances are you’ve gotten to this point in your life by NOT being careful with your money, and the fact that you buy lottery tickets is proof of that. So you think that having a hundred million bucks is going to help you suddenly see the light? That it’s going to encourage you to use your money more wisely?

Oh . . . it is to laff!

 

That’s like giving a jug of ‘corn’ to a hillbilly.

Not enough likker.
