So the odds are very low. And this woman Susan had a very funny way of describing how she views her odds and why she still plays.
Your have a better chance of getting hit by lightning than you do of winning the lottery. However, people do get hit by lightning. So it does make sense to give it a try.
So, you're willing to risk a couple of dollars and see if you can win the jackpot.
Yes!
See! She mentioned the word "lightning!"
Okay. Now, get serious, Yang Chen. You know, after I started interviewing people they all started talking about the big "what if?" You know what if I win?
Here's what Susan had to say.
Well, that's what everyone always thinks as they're waiting in line ... "What would they do if they won." And of course, the first thing you think is quit your job and buy all those things that are on your list, that you wanted to get...you know...
Another woman, Olivia from New Orleans, Louisiana, said that after she paid off her and her family's debt she would give some of her winnings to charities.
I would definitely donate some to charity, because there are a lot of good courses. And pay off all my debts, my mother's debts, my sister's debts and travel.
Well, that's what they say before they win. I don't know what they say after they win.
Yeah! Thanks for joining us today at American Cafe. I certainly enjoyed talking with you about the American tradition of the... Powerball.
