“if ur going to turn to statistics instead of Hashem”
When I was in graduate school, one of my professors was interviewed on the radio about a huge jackpot that the lottery was promoting for its next drawing. He pointed out that were he to walk across the street to buy a ticket, he was far more likely to be struck by an automobile and killed while crossing that street than to purchase the winning ticket.
I’ve heard it said that gambling is a tax on the mathematically-impaired.
