No, for a lottery ticket I have to pay *good* money. For gaining that increased chance of life I only get rid of *terrible* suffering. It's a no brainer. I never buy lottery tickets, because for every $ I pay, I stand to get only 50 cents or so in return. The better odds at records jackpots only apply to - just the jackpot. The odds are tens of millions to one against you being that winner. - Baaad investment Best, Olaf Rate This Message: http://www.cryonet.org/cgi-bin/rate.cgi?msg=16477
