Ralph: $200,000,000??!! Maybe I should buy one! Smart Ralph: Don't do it, Ralph! Gambling rarely pays off! Dumb Ralph: $200,000,000??! You'd be crazy not to buy a $2 ticket! Smart Ralph: Wait, it only costs two bucks?? Dumb Ralph: Buy a thousand tickets to increase your chances!
I occasionally buy one ticket. Never more. The way I see it, the odds of winning are so small that it will require an act of God to win. And if God wants you to win, you don’t need more than one ticket. So I buy one ticket every now and then, just in case God decides I deserve a miracle for some inexplicable reason.
