    My dad used to let me do some of the scratch off lottery tickets he would buy when I was a little kid... He won a couple thousand dollars on one of the ones I did once, which was pretty exciting for me and our family in general at the time.

    I, personally, have never bought lottery tickets of any variety and see it as a complete waste of money.

    I already won the lottery. I was born in the US of A, baby!

    More seriously, I've won a couple bucks here and there. Before I was born my dad bought a ticket and won $10k, which he used as a down payment on the house I grew up in.

    Yes.
    I recall never playing before and was always encouraged for the sake of "beginner's luck." I figure a couple of buck here and there...and I always hit for 30$-32$ here and there one month. I was thinking that if this continued I'd have to be paying taxes.
    A friend told me no one does that. He said people have been playing for years and not once hit. So...he talked me into the "big game" here. And it didn't take long. Hit for 2nd place that garnered around $74k...it was nice. (Had to split it up since it was group thing, but it was "found" money and I paid off my truck)

    Most I got was €2k from the lottery. Don't do it much, typically once a blue moon when the pot is €120+m with the Plus. (Two separate rolls, one for pot another for €500k).

    I won $100 last year. Better than a punch in the dick.

    I've won a few thousand a couple times on scratch off tickets, and I won the Hamilton Ticket Lottery twice.

    Most anything is better than that.
    Unless you're into that sort of thing.

    20 bucks one time as a kid. I never bought into them myself but my grandfather gave me and my brother one every now and then.
