Its $2 bucks... chase the dream

Stocks cost more than $2 tho...

Yeah but someone will win the lottery...

Can't afford a pot to piss in. Not even a $2.00 lottery ticket.

Stocks are the better option unless you consider all the thousands many lost not too long ago. Playing the lottery and losing costs less money. I am not saying that one should do stocks. Stocks have risks and this article seems to try to say that stocks are safer which are not.

Still says $1600 Milllion

Thanks for the obvious advice. Can you help point me to a stock I can buy for $2?

It’s 3 bucks ffs.

When the jackpot gets this big, I gotta get a ticket
