I never win the Powerball

I never win the Powerball.
How unfair is that? I'd be a way better winner than a lot of people. I'd definitely be better than that "How crazy can you drive?" lady. Although to be fair,
she didn't win it, she just leeched off her ex-husband. But so anyway, I'd so totally rule as a Powerball winner. Who needs ALL of that money anyway? I'd
set up all my family, and all my friends. Heck, I'd even give some away to strangers... but I do have to warn you that in the event that I ever win the Powerball,
I will be allowing Jake to interrogate any and all strangers who are asking for handouts. Just be advised.
So I actually bought a Powerball ticket the other day. I figured, I should probably buy one if I want to win. Makes sense. But so I was in the little
corner market buying it, and when I asked the clerk for a ticket, the lady next to me perks up and says (to me, apparently): What's the jackpot up to?
I'll tell y'all one thing right now... Who CARES what the jackpot is up to?! The least I can win in the Powerball is 10 million. Folks, if you can't
live off of ten mil for the rest of your life, you've got a problem. Heck, if I had 10 grand right now, I'd be damn near out of debt completely, and while my
math is rusty, I'm confident in saying that ten grand is a mere fraction of ten million.
So don't ask what the jackpot is up to. If you're gonna buy, buy. Geez.
Obviously, I didn't win from that ticket. Maybe someday. Probably right after I get that date with Sue Bird...
