This was a fun and engaging look at love, emotions, and money. I still want to buy a lottery ticket, but now I’ll just feel a whole lot worse when I do it! Enjoyed it!
Quite an entertaining little piece. I, too, will still buy my lottery tickets. Though I make the amount commented on in the talk, I do manage to put away 27% towards my retirement. That extra $200 per year for the entertainment value is what I can afford.
