You can see many curbside stores/ gereral stores run the business, the shop owners can get a profit of 7% of the tickets selling (usually 2 yuan per ticket).

Have you ever tried you luck there? What was you best/ worst luck?

My BEST LUCK was that I won a 5 yuan prize in 2002 when lottery first appeared in the city I lived, I paid only 2 yuan for that prize!!:-), while my WORST LUCK was that I used THAT 5 yuan and another 1 yuan from my purse for three tickets, and I got nothing back:( hoho~

I never buy it because I don't believe one can reap without sowing

Hi Conny,

Thanks for a fast reply:-)

Well, there are a lot of people or phenomena nowadays LOVE to challenge that theory - No pains, no gains...
Gambling, Stealing, Robbery as well as investing Lottery are all ways of reaping without sowing:-) haha~

Lotteries offer a glimmer of hope for the poor and those who wanna more money. I think it is OK as long as one doesn't get addicted to it and pins his hope entirely on the lottery.
Of cos, the ones who really get rich via these lotteries are the ones running them.
