@jk My friend Patrick had a related idea for playing the lottery. Each week, you pick your numbers but don’t buy a ticket. Then you watch the results come in and enjoy not having wasted money on a losing ticket. You save a small fortune. Of course (in the case of the UK lottery) 1 in 14 million times you will feed sad* when your numbers come up, but what are the odds? * I think Patrick actually said “have to kill yourself”, but that seems a bit extreme.
