    Which makes them suckers.

    Birth lottery is most of it. They let a few exceptional tokens through, enough to keep the fantasy alive.

    I consider being a grind culture warrior true believer to be considerably dumber than a lottery ticket addict

      I see what you’re angling for but that’s an overstretched comparison. Grind culture warriors get paid at the end of the week.

        I wouldnt call destroying my body in exchange to live one more week getting “paid” as much as it is a sacrifice. The people buying lotto are just kinda Saying fuck it, if I’m going to die I might as well keep trying to see if I can hit a jackpot before then.
