Not this year

[gerisullivan]

This is apparently not the year for me to declare my financial independence on Independence Day weekend. My $2 lottery fantasy came up empty tonight. Everyone else in the Friday night MegaMillions draw experienced a similar result. It's a shame, really. I'm sorry no one out there has those particular personal fireworks going off , it would have been so timely.

I indulge in lottery fantasies roughly 2-5 times a year. I won't call it a total waste of $4-10, 'cause the fantasy is well worth it as long as I keep it that far down into the noise and I seem to be good in that regard.

Now, if only all of the other bills were so small.

Onward.

I love that fantasy, too. I wish you'd been able to set off all the fireworks - you deserve to!

If a lottery is where you win a lot, what does that say for "summary" and "nunnery"? Note: I like the fantasy, too, but can't bring myself to fork over the cash for even one ticket. It's easier to fantasize myself as a 60-year-old rock star (maybe writing a song for a singer who is much younger) as I haven't had good results at times I neede "luck." Better luck next time, in any event.

My relationship with the lottery is much the same as yours.
