You're not alone at that. When the Fla lotto started back in '88 I think, I bought 5000 tickets in 10 different places. A whole day of work. But I was a sure winner.
Super pissed off when all I got back was like 300 bucks. I ate people alive.
Back then were less numbers to hit. The machines were slower too.

Didn't play like in a month. Reading the news one day, there's a story of a guy that sweeping his hardware store found a winning ticket. Two million bucks without playing a penny.

My Grandma used to say " Luck does not belong to those who seek it, but to those who find it". Amen.
