I wonder what everyone is planning to do if they win the lottery

Everyone, did you buy the year-end jumbo lottery ticket?

I used to try various things in the past, like "I'll take this many consecutive numbers!" or,
"The scattered ones have a higher chance of winning!" or,
"Did a winner come from this ticket booth? Then I'll buy here too!" or,
I tried all sorts of things.

However, not to brag, but I have never won anything yet.

A fortune teller I visited before even said something terrible, "You are not the type of person who wins the lottery."
"Why would you say that!" I muttered (in my heart) without thinking.

Since then, I decided to buy only one lottery ticket at a time.

I keep one lottery ticket in my wallet as a "lucky charm."
Every time I open my wallet, I pray, "Please let me win."

What do people imagine when they buy a lottery ticket?

I used to dream endless dreams, like "If I win, I'll pay off my mortgage,"
"Quit my job,"
"Buy a cruiser,"
"Buy a luxury foreign car,"
"Go on a world tour,"
"Buy real estate and earn rental income,"
"Buy a new house on a hill overlooking the sea," and so on.

While saying to myself, "I won't tell anyone even if I win."

This is the time when I am happiest.

That is why I don't even know the day the winning numbers are announced.
When this excitement starts to fade, I go to the lottery booth, confirm that I've "lost," and then buy one new lottery ticket again.

From a psychological perspective, the lottery seems to be called "consumption of expectation."

Actually, even though we know we won't win, we are enjoying the excitement of imagining what it would be like if we did, rather than the winning itself.

It means we are "buying hope for a few hundred yen."
Depending on how you look at it, it's a cheap investment.
I think it is completely different from gambling.

You, who are looking at the lottery ticket in your hand and grinning, what kind of dream are you imagining?

I am praying that good luck will come to everyone.

Thank you for reading.
I would be happy if you could like, follow, or tip.
I look forward to your continued support.
