There's a difference, however, between throwing away $6 on the lottery for the opportunity to dream (as I did Wednesday evening) and throwing away entire paychecks, as many others did, thinking they actually have a chance.
I can't imagine the number of people who awoke Thursday morning with skull-crushing Powerball hangovers when they realized they did not win, just spent hundreds of dollars on worthless pieces of paper, and the bills are still due.

Well, of course. It is the difference between buying a ticket to Star Wars and spending $10k redecorating your entire two room apartment as a Death Star control room.
