          I totally get it, makes perfect sense. I only have opinions about lotteries because I used to be an avid fan myself but now am a doomer who, like, wastes money on a different scam. No judgement at all. It got really out of hand with crypto and NFT for some people though, because it's new and more complex and celebrities said buying that shit is good. Psychology is very similar, but monetary devastation is probably a bit different.

          I have a friend who recently won almost 2000 dollars in slot machines. Within hours he was robbed of it all.

          We are sold the idea that large sums of money will make things structurally different in a good way for us, at least personally. It's a huge lie.

              If you walk down a public street while giving yourself a hard slap in the face over and over, and keep doing it enough times, maybe one day someone will film you doing it and it'll go viral.
