These aren’t the best odds so don’t feel bad when you’re still living on your 9 to 5 working 40+ hours a week just to feed the kids and pay for an oil change. Here are 20 things that you have a better chance at winning that might just make you feel a little better about not being filthy rich from doing nothing but stopping at your local gas station. Trust me I’m in the same boat…
#1 I don’t care, I’m playing anyway!
Its a pretty exciting story to hear that someone from the middle of nowhere spent $20.00 on a lottery ticket only to hit it huge and win hundreds of millions of dollars! We all sit back and wonder, why aren't I the one who now has millions to spend, invest, or just blow on a huge vacation house and cars. Well don't worry you are not alone and the chances of that one person hitting it big is 1 in 175 million! Yes 175 million.
#2 You are way more likely to be injured by a chainsaw
#3 Die in an asteroid apocalypse
#4 Be murdered. That’s not good at all.
#5 Catch Tuberculosis
#6 Be legally put to death
#7 Go to the ER for a pogo stick related injury
#8 Be bitten or crushed by a reptile
#9 Be killed by a Pit Bull
#10 Die in the bathtub
#11 If your left-handed, die from a right-handed product
#12 Killed by a vending machine
#13 Die after falling off a ladder
#14 You are however more likely to win the lottery than die on a fairground accident or by a falling coconut! Thats a plus.
#15 But you will be more likely to win than reach the ripe old age of 116
#16 Or win a gold medal
#17 Possibly even date a supermodel
#18 You will definitely be audited by the good old IRS
#19 Find out your child is a genius. This may be your lotto ticket
#20 Or become a pro athlete!
While you may not be filthy stinking rich from winning the lottery where you can dive into your vault of gold coins and swim around like Scrooge McDuck there are some pretty good odds for some pretty good things. Remember that money comes and goes so don't worry too much about the lottery. The asteroid apocalypse though. Might wanna worry about that one.
