Has bigger chance to happen than winning a lottery. But the people are still buying it for almost no reason. Otherwise the legal gambling business and the lottery company would have end their business decades ago.

Why would you think that people are still buying lottery while they knew the chance of being hit by vehicles on their way to buy lottery ticket is bigger than the chance of wining the lottery? I have interviewed few person in my life that who are buying the lottery and the jackpot for years but yet winning any money from that, they all gave me the same answer while they knew the probabilities of winning the money. They answer me it is because of a HOPE. They all hope to become billionaire or millionaire just because of luck.

Hope is the only reason we lives until today, even the people knew there is 100 million chance to 1, they will still HOPE for it. You chance of fixing up your mess up parent issues, getting help on other therapy center and your son to love you back has a bigger chance then winning the lottery, why make you so hard to lives while people out there are buying “Hope” on lottery ticket when they know there is biggest chance of winning than those other probabilities to happen. You are here asking me why you need a reasons to move on? you might think again.
