It's just $2 a day!
 

I play the NY Lottery games by subscription.

I play NY Lotto - 6 games 104 draws 2 per week $312.

I also play Mega Millions - 4 games 2 per week $416.

Total $728

Which is $14 a week - $2 a day.

It's worth a shot and I'm helping fund education in NY.

And your point is...?

My point is, it's fun and I could win a jackpot, and even if I don't, I'm supporting education in New York State and that is a good cause

I can think of lots of better things to do with $728 ...

If you want to pay extra tax, there's a box on the federal return for that very purpose.

Weird, to come on to a forum for expats and wax lyrical about the friggin' lottery...

We're all waiting for the spam.

Yes, taxes are all very well and we should all pay our fare share. However, I do think state lotteries are a great way for states to raise extra revenue. We all benefit from that revenue, whether we play or not. It is a win-win situation; pardon the pun.

You could just give $728 to your local school.

It is a tax on the poor, and stupid.

Have you told anyone else about your gambling addiction?
