I had an ad pop up on my phone where a woman says, “My husband and I have won the lottery 27 times. Would you like to know our secret?” Unfortunately/fortunately I was in a hurry, and I did not stick around for the remainder of her presentation. I can only guess at their “secret”. I can think of two strategies they might use:
1. Buy a lot of tickets. Cash in your retirement. This would increase your odds of winning.
2. Try to get other people to not buy tickets. Maybe, like, write letters to the editor of every newspaper in your state stating how the lottery rips off the poor. Use a fake name so, when you win, you don’t have to explain the letters. This would also increase your odds of winning.
Actually, I think I know this couple’s secret. Their secret is that they didn’t really win the lottery 27 times.
Yeah.
