See this is what I absolutely loathe these state run lotteries.
99% of the revenue from them come from people exactly like this guy^
Listen to his own report.
"For us it's just going to be a huge relief to know I'm going to be able to pay my electric bill, my gas bill"
"I had bills at home I didn't know how they were going to be paid."
So why the fuck is he buying lottery tickets?
I'm not blaming him. The state lottery commissions spend a lot of money convincing him it's his shot at the dream. The dude has two kids with two different women, to whom he's presumably paying child support, and of course homie's got no front teef, but he's buying $5 lottery tickets. He's worried about paying his utilities, but he's buying lottery tickets.
When some working class or straight up poor person wins they are contractually obligated to be publicized by the lottery commission in order to encourage more people who really need their money for necessities to keep crapping away their money in the future.
