State Lotteries are good for States
Lady luck is on your side? Lottery ticket is your game? The Tennessee offers so many options for you to win money and all you have to do is invest some money. Weather it is 50 cents, or maybe more for some bigger jackpot, it is al up to you. It is common for the regular gabblers to bet about 5 Dollar for a 100K Dollar prize.
Flipping the coin that I like, more over I support state lotteries gambling for it has so much good in it. Since the state of Tennessee legalized the lottery, I can walk about with smile on my face when it comes to lottery. I am always glad to spend some money on that good cause – Lottery – when I have it.
However, how can it be, that those with no penny to spare, those who need it most kept close to them, those are the people eager to play state lotteries and spend their money. We, those fortunate collage students, the ones who can learn from others mistakes, must use this opportunity with all our hearts.
“Collage students’ main aim in their 4 years is educated”. This is my last year journalism professor had to say to us and repeatedly. I think he was right and even though some of us work and place learning way below on their list, we should stop, observe and think. Next time we decide spending our money with those fake-Ids, we should maybe take a very good look at those others who chose to do so for more then just once and maybe learn from their mistake.
So next time you have to place that extra milk gallon back to its shelf just because you’ve spent that last buck on lottery ticket, then don’t. Sometimes, saving your money for a goal like buying a car, instead of walking every time to the gas station for a lottery ticket, is smarter. Lottery may offer a fast way to land on big piles of money, that is always alluring but bare something in mind: The sum of people that actually won that big jackpot is significantly smaller then those who didn’t. This is why so many people consider lottery addictive and a dangerous way of life, even if we disregard those who dislike it on religious reasons.
But don’t let it stop you; money made on the backs of those addicts has a good use. The money is often used in a very good way, so many collage students can testify to this. It is not a free ride for those students but a real chance to get that extra education, thanks to the HOPE Scholarship. In order to win the scholarship a student has to pass some criteria.
Working hard pays off. For those fortunate students who won the scholarship higher education is not just a dream but a reality. Not everyone is entitled for that scholarship, definitely not if you are too old, like me. For sure if you are that guy who cheats his family from a better future just by gambling their money. No matter, state lotteries have a prize for everybody.
Those kids cheated of their extra milk may have a chance for collage funds, thanks to those gambling addicts. Those collage students learning from the mistakes of others and know how to handle their financial affairs better. Even those less fortunate addicts who often through their money to the wind, they actually give others a better future. The conclusion is simple, lottery gambling is good for the state and that in return is good for all of us.
