It must be my lucky day. I must buy Lotto 6/49" days. So, to remedy this and save some money, i only buy lotto tickets when the prize pool is over $13 million. Finance Guy

It's $208 (less $20 for the coupon code they always seem to put out). The fun factor is the cheque you recieve when you win. The gang at work get a kick out of standing around me and have our picture taken with the $5 cheque. I always promise that it won't change me and that I'll keep working regardless of my $5 windfall. 4 wins last year, including a $10 one, kept us laughing. So the fun at the office, plus the 'fun to dream' seem to make it a 'fun' investment/gamble. OLG probably loves people like me because I buy an annual subscription to 649.

Funniest thing I heard for a while. If you don't mind, I think we'll try the same in our office next time someone wins something. This is brilliant. Hahaha… that’s just hilarious!!
