We read that short disturbing story in high school. I’ve never forgotten it.

A few years back, I operated a Lottery pool among my fellow employees. I ALWAYS delivered to them a copy of the pooled tickets before the drawing.

When will people learn to sign their names on these group tickets? Less messy and no lawyers getting their cut.

The only thing more stupid than playing the lottery is playing the lottery with people buying tickets as a group....

each was aware of a "rule" in their system prohibiting the purchaser of the group's tickets to buy personal tickets at the same time.

Pay them all. The holder of the winning ticket is stupid and will just be broke again anyway.

They don't call it the idiot's tax for nothing:

The Treasure of Sierra Madre, The Golden Curse

CAUTION: The YouTube link starts with a Michelle Obama, "Let's Move," commercial (at least when I opened it) but you can skip it right away. Hopefully, google is just targeting me with the Obama stuff but, just in case, a caution is in order.
