I have two collegues who are looking at things in a very different perspective. One is a smoker and the other one is a lottery buyer.
The smoker is not at all into buying lottery. His argument is that the probability for one to strike a winning number is very remote. It is just like a dream and it is a waste of money to buy a lottery. He might as well smoke and make more friends. By smoking he will also fill certain vacuum in his life (to kill boring I suppose). Come to think of it, he is quite right. Smokers will make friends easily. A smoker can easily approached another stranger smoker and asked for a lighter. They have this kind of bond and from there they break the ice and start to have a conversation.
The lottery buyer has a different view. To him smoking is also a waste of money. What he gets just smoke, destroyed lungs and destroying other people lungs. To him by buying a lottery he will get the same satisfaction in smoking. He got this feeling of suspense and excitement while waiting from the time he buys until the time when winning numbers are announced, the same kind of excitement to win a girl's heart. To him he will never get to his dream if he doesn't buy it. Well, come to think of it he is quite right too.

Will choose smoke over a lottery ticket anytime, But hey, its just me.
To be honest Akula... I think east43rdstreet is trying to tell us that the smoker and gambler is the same type of person in a different point of view.
But hey, it's just what I think. :)
both cigarettes smokers and lottery buyers are gamblers, one with life the other with money.. both will end up losers.. superstar or not!
Josh: Thanks. I do get it.
GD: Surely with your intelligence and thinking mind, you could make a better judgement on one's flaws and achievements rather than happily labelling a person without truly knowing them inside out.
