I have a Lotto subscription.
It automatically plays two numbers every drawing for a year for $104. If I win anything trivial, it can be applied to next year, or I can cash out at the end of the subscription. If it's bigger, I get a check. If it's really big, I get a call from a lottery official to arrange a press conference.
I've never gotten a check or a phone call. The most I think I've won was about $45.
But, for most if us in the not-so-rare air of working people, even the lower end of Lotto wins, maybe $200K, is life changing money. It could pay off your mortgage, or at least a significant chunk.
Or, if you're lucky enough to have a lower rate mortgage you could put the same $$$ into a money market and actually profit instead.
Everything is relative. Do some math
