But don’t get too excited or prepare to suck up to me because
it was $10 on a scratch-off ticket. Hey, it’s $10 more than I had.
For me, this counts as a big win because I never, ever win
anything. I am a very low roller. Some people say “You can’t win if you don’t
play” but I say “You can’t lose either.” If my life were like 401K, I would
always choose the “low risk, low return” plan. Lottery players often fantasize about
what they’ll do with their winnings. I haven’t made any decisions yet but here
are some possibilities of what I could do with Mr. Hamilton’s denomination:
One-third of a tank of gas
A matinee movie ticket
0.00056 shares of Facebook
A roll of stamps
Takeout from Seasons
Ten boxes of Rice-a-Roni
Ear wax remover as seen on TV
Down payment on a $25 gift card to Best Buy
Three Sunday newspapers
Ten deep album cuts from SWV
Two Hallmark cards with ribbons on the spine and a piece of
tissue paper inside and wrapped in plastic
0.000000000000000001274 ounces of gold
Two tickets to a Starship concert
More lottery tickets
Regardless of how I choose to spend my windfall, I promise
not to spend it all in one place.
