I only buy lottery drawing tickets (not scratch-offs) with the smallest number of numbers to pick. There is simply a greater statistical probability of winning.
And, even having to split a win with another ticket buyer (because there is a higher probability of someone else winning too when picking fewer numbers) would not bother me one bit.
The way I look at it, any amount I would win in a drawing could be life altering and I don't see a difference in my life if I had an extra few hundred thousand $$ more vs. a few million $$.
