Question: Do you play lottery games/tickets?
I'll say no, because it's not our thing and we have pretty much zero expectations of ever winning any significant amount of money from them. But we have bought them for fun a couple times. Neither my husband nor I are gambling types. Hubby's maternal grandmother and grandfather were to a very unhealthy degree. In fact, my m-i-l was sent to her aunt's house for about 5 years because the parents were out on a gambling spree in Monte Carlo (Monaco) and had lost so much money they couldn't afford to properly raise her. Very bad and it affected my m-i-l throughout her life. Interestingly, the family of my m-i-l's aunt lived in the next town over from where we're currently renting. This week we even saw the house she lived in, the remnants of the factory that family owned, and the cemetery where they are buried. No one in my family really gambled, but apparently one of my paternal great grandfathers was a bookie on the side. I think for horse races. Maybe he gambled, too?

Q: How far back on one of your parent's sides do you know things about?
