I spent $20 on powerball yesterday and woke up to an extra 4 bucks.

Even better, I was paid in $2 dollar bills.

Lucky

What is less likely?  

Getting $4 for getting the power ball
Or
Getting $2 bill from a cashier?


EDIT:
I am the luckiest!
Won another $4 on my second $20 investment,

I gonna be rich...

So an 80% loss?  I bought  BFRI at 1.29 and sold some at 1.69

I drop $20 on lotto 4 or 5 times year when the pot gets huge and daydream about what I would if I hit it.

Other than that, I never gamble

With out a gallbladder every time I fart it’s a gamble.

Same, it's fun. Otherwise I give the money to bums so they can buy beer.

Getting a $2 bill from a cashier probably more rare than hitting the lottery

A few times a year I’ll go to the bank and get a couple hundred $2 bills. I pass them out at Caribbean resorts as tips for beers.

My brother went to dairy queen on lunch break and thought he has to fart while standing in line to order. He also doesn't have a gall bladder.

Ended up shitting all over himself.

Went to the bathroom and sat in the stall and called his wife to come bring him some new clothes.

He really tests the "for worst" part of the vowels quite often.

I won $50 on a scratchers ticket once.  

Really doesn't get you far down the hookers and blow road.

20% return is respectable today.

When it gets massive I might just throw in.

We all know what it's like to get stuck behind the ancient, decrepit gambler that holds up the whole line.

Best of luck to you all!

When you say "won" you did end up with $24 correct?
I know people that spend $20 and "win" $4 leaving them with only $16 and they feel good about "winning'"

I spent $20 and won  $4.  
-20 +4 = 16

I guess this thread is sarcasm in "winning "
