Anyone here ever won anything from the lottery?

I obviously don't mean hitting the jackpot or whatever, but any money of significance?
I was at a convenience store this evening and had 3 people in front of me buy scratch-off lottery tickets. Frankly none of them seemed to be in a position to throw money away. 2 of the 3 scratched off the tickets, threw them in the trash can by the door, and left. The trash was full of similar tickets.
We all have things we throw money away on, Lord knows I do. So even though I don't mean to judge, I realize I'm slightly judging. It just seemed sad.

Bought a ticket at the FloraBama for the hell of it. It was a $5 ticket and I had had more than enough to drink. Won $100 bucks. Thought it was a joke, but it was legit. Thought I had hit the Lottery

I make enough money to not fall in the poor tax bracket.

We won $250 on a scratch off a couple weeks ago

I hit 4 numbers and the Powerball in 2001 during my college days.
My other number was a 16 and the winning one was the 18. The difference between 10k and 58M that drawing saved my life.

A guy that works for me has hit twice over the past 15 years for a total of $700,000. He blew every penny
Posted on 2/12/20 at 8:04 pm to AbitaFan08
Won $100 a couple of times.

No I am not a displaced pipe welder so I don’t participate.

My Dad called it " the stupid tax". Proving my Dad's point, I buy Powerball/Megamillions tickets in direct proportion to how desperate my life begins to feel. Only partially kidding. Ok, not kidding.
