Did you know that in the year 1726 the first Dutch lottery was established? Nowadays there are about 12 lotteries in the Netherlands. Dutch people are normally quite a bit frugal, except when it comes to gambling. Each year, we spent a few hundreds of million Euros on lottery tickets.
I personally do not understand the need to buy a ticket. The probability that you win the lottery is about 1/14.000.000. For the record: if you would buy 1 lottery ticket per week, you will surely win the jackpot at least once if you continue that for 250.000 years. Knowing this, you would be crazy to buy lottery tickets. But still, what if you do win the lottery and become a millionaire? What would you do then? Think of all the possibilities. You will never have to work one day again! You can built your own aiprort, island or whatever you want to. There is no mammal on the entire planet who can dream better than humans do. It is part of the human nature to tell stories and think of ‘what if scenario’s.’
