because most of the winners are poor people, and poor people can't handle money even when they've got an abundance of it (that's why they're poor to begin with)
Yeah, because mostly poor people buy lotto tickets, I'd imagine. I would think they'd have better things to spend money on, but eh.
Unless they know how to invest money.
One guy invested in a trucking company and now he has a huge mansion that he keeps expanding on. The mansion also has a huge property.
I used to see it each time I went to my friends, I was almost jelly of it.
But, as Boltster pointed out, they're usually poor, and so have little to no investment experience.
I can make $5 stretch a good month if I try.
I can handle money.
Its not hard, just don't go off blowing it on stupid stuff and think before you buy
Do you mean you can avoid spending it for a month...? Or you can somehow buy a month's worth of stuff with five bucks?
