Inheritance I wouldn't care about because there's nothing I can do to change what I inherit. Lottery I'd probably care about, though. I've always looked down on people who buy into lottery but I think if I saw someone close to me win big I might feel like I missed out for not playing. It's a good comparison because I remember the early years when his business success was really far from certain - he bought a lottery ticket that was probably worth several hundred thousand dollars in the first years (income he would've easily made if he'd been an employee instead of being a business owner without any customers).
- beeboop 5y agoI buy lottery tickets occasionally because it's worth the $1 to spend a few minutes day dreaming about how much life would change if I won. It's not always just mental masturbation either, sometimes it poses difficult questions that challenge my current decisions in life. "What would you do if you won the lottery" I think is a very meaningful question to ponder, and it's a little easier and more fun if you do it when you actually buy a ticket.
