It is true that buying a lottery ticket is also part of gambling, but gambling is not the crime. We gamble out our life everyday, even by hopping into our cars and setting out to work. That means we know an accident can happen, and that day could be the last day we will ever exist in physical body. But we must use the car to get to our jobsite, so what do we do? That is a gamble with our lives as well, but we do it with humility, sincerity, and hope for the better. We get a paycheck at the end of the week.

It is the same way with buying a lottery ticket. The majority of us do not expect to win anything, so we know that we are putting our money into a possible lost. But most of us would like to win even a small part, maybe just to get back the money we spent. So we try to do it with a little optimism. And we say win or lost, nobody put a gun at my head to do it.

The conduct of crime is different and influenced through the minds of those who are greedy, envious, jealous, and lack self-control. This corrupted mind commits all sorts of crime, including illegal gambling. However illegal gambling is always done in secret, until the fugs are disclosed.

A Lottery System that is controlled by the government of its country is not illegal gambling. It should not hurt anyone. People must learn to exercise self-control in all their walks of Life. This means that we have to remain in tact of our limits–to know when to say that is enough. Those who do not win should not consider their money as a loss, but as a contribution to the betterment of their country’s social issues. It is easier to buy a lottery ticket with the hope or winning than to put the money in a collection box with no idea what it will be used for. And of course, bravo! To those who win!
