When ever I go in to play, it's always people who are obviously not well off playing the lottery. They are spending piles and piles of money on lottery tickets and scratch offs. Their clothes are old and they probably are on state aid by the looks of them, but they spend what they do have on lottery tickets.
It's cheap entertainment my former in-laws would sometimes buy lottery scratch-off cards for our kids, If they won any cash they would share, most times they would go back and get more cards.
What are you gonna do they meant well, it's like my ex-girlfriend's Mom she did this too, she just couldn't afford to get the kids lots of stuff and she was on a fixed income.
A huge chunk here goes towards education,scholarships etc.
