When parents buy and lose,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
We have a better chance of dying from a bee sting, one in 6.1 million, or death via lightning strike, one in 3 million. Indeed,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], sometimes lightening strikes lottery ticket holders. The Chicago Tribune reports that a 48-year-old "bought three lottery tickets, hoping to win the big jackpot which had grown to more than $600 million. After he bought the tickets, he jokingly said to a friend that he had a better chance of getting struck by lightning than winning. Unfortunately,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he was right."
RECOMMENDED: Are you a Helicopter Parent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]? Take our quiz
Therefore, rather than risk the proverbial lightning strike from on high,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I will admit right up front that in the midst of financial distress, I personally did not resist the temptation to buy a ticket for the monster jackpot that preceded the most recent Powerball lottery.
I can count the number of times I have bought a ticket - twice- and both times at my husband's urging due to our ongoing financial distress. That does not excuse my lack of judgment in the slightest. I realize that a penny saved is a penny earned and the $2 wasted on the lottery would have been far more effective in my youngest son's piggy bank. How often as parents do we tell kids,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "Do as I say, not as I do?" However, since I made the mistake twice and suffered the consequences, I feel like I have a bit more insight about a practice that has become widely accepted as a means of funding our public projects and even schools.
According to CBS News our dollars are baked into the fiscal pie as follows, "Revenue from that pie is divided in three ways: About 60 percent goes to prize winners; 15 percent to retailers,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], marketing and operations; and 25 percent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or about $14 billion,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], goes back to the states for government services." That's a huge chunk of change handed over to the country's coffers. It makes me feel as if we are sending the message to kids that government is run largely on a bet.
For my part I think that's a poison pie. The sickness I felt at the loss of the ticket money and the destruction of my little fantasy that we'd win was magnified by the fact that my son,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], 9, was with me when I checked the ticket. You'd have thought I was smuggling drugs the way I sneaked over to the little scanner to see if the ticket was a winner while he was picking out a snack.
However, to a child,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a sneaking mom is like a flare in the dark. He materialized at my side just as the machine lit up a phrase in blue: "This ticket is not a winner." I instantly realized the massive, compounded error I'd made.
My son asked me,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], "So how does this work actually? Do they just give you the ticket for free or something?" No,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I told him,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you pay for the tickets. Then, at that moment,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I felt the utter misery a parent feels after realizing they've done a bad job must find a way to reverse the damage ASAP.相关的主题文章:
