Everybody wants to make money and that includes our house help. The maids at home want to become rich like most people, and they work at it in their own way. Obviously, they serve as domestic helpers and earn a monthly salary, but there's another way they do it.
They bet on the lottery.
Everyday, religiously, like clockwork, my maids bet on the lottery. They've never really won a significant amount (the max they've won is five times their daily bet), but they keep at it. Everybody wants to make money, and this happens to be how they augment their chances.
Kind of like my whole gambling for money idea. Of course, I've come to realize that you can't rely on luck alone to get rich. If you want to make money, big money, luck is important, but hey, so's hard work. And walking to the corner grocery to place bets is not hard work. Not at all. But I guess we make money in our own ways. I'd rather make money blogging at home (OK, fine, working my job), but to each their own.
