How to win the lottery

This is the hidden secret they won’t tell. It’s the proven way to make you a happy winner. 

Don’t play in the first place. If you do "win" it won’t make your life any better. Don’t just take my word for it. Still dubious? Read this story:

"Winning the lottery isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be," says Evelyn Adams, who won the New Jersey lottery not just once, but twice (1985, 1986), to the tune of $5.4 million. Today the money is all gone and Adams lives in a trailer.

Winning the lottery is a nice little daydream, but the truth of the matter is that most people who want to win the lottery, the ones who actually count on winning for their nest egg, those people are stupid. If they aren’t stupid, then they’ve given up trying.

The bottom line is that successful people make their own money, and they spend a lifetime gaining the skills to a) gather resources and then b) use those resources to gather more resources.

If you don’t spend any time working on your resource gathering skills, then winning the lottery will only make you confused and sad. Someone hands you a big pile of resources and you have no idea what to do with them. Before long, they’re all gone because you don’t have any resource management skills.

So there you have it – you win the lottery by not playing. Work on your resource gathering and management skills instead.
