I don’t gamble much, and nickel machines are as good as dollar ones to me, but is it all that different from blowing $60 on a video game? Certain machines are fun to play, and there is at least the possibility of winning. It’s been a better return on my investment in terms of pleasure than some plays I’ve gone to, where I spend about as much.
Disneyland if fun also, but a totally different experience. You can enjoy both types of recreation.
Yes, but your chance **is ** zero if you don’t buy one. I can always dream better with one in my hand. After all, someone has to win
I do buy them occasionaly (only when its over $150M), but almost never check them after the fact. I figure if I won big, it would be on the news that a local store sold the jackpot ticket - this may be even stupider then buying them in the first place…
