My super-galactic travelling friends,
I thought it would be interesting to start keeping a log of my wins and losses when I play the lottery or get a scratchcard, and put those results on my blog.
I know I'm obviously in the negative overall as I've been playing for twenty plus years and yet to win the jackpot, and only those that have played once won a tenner and never played again, or those that have actually won millions are the ones in the positive, but I'm curious how much in the negative I actually am over a year.
I'm not a huge gambler, playing just one line twice a week on set for life, plus some scratchcards or extra tickets if I win something, but even so I know it builds over time.
Last month I actually won enough to get this month's tickets, so unless I decide to get myself a scratchcard from the corner shop, when(!) I win something I'll be in positive, and when I don't win I won't be technically be down, which makes the maths for this first month easy!
And so onto the results on my first week, which was last Thursday, plus a bonus Power Ball ticket since I had enough left over after getting my set for life tickets, and our survey says...
Surprise surprise, a loss on both...
It was to be expected, but I have plenty more tickets to go 😄
I'll only make this post once a week (or maybe going to once a month, we'll see) rather than after every time I play the lottery and the like, as it wouldn't be very exciting having two posts plus a week where more often than not I say hey guess what, I'm not a lottery winner...again! so I'll see you again this time next week 🍀
