Do you have lucky numbers? How about other superstitious things that seem to help you out?
I'm not too superstitious myself. I do like the fun of thinking something might be lucky...
For instance, yesterday I bought a mega millions lottery ticket. I do this about 2 or 3 times a year- when I hear about the jackpot being extraordinarily large. Since my husband has assured me that the lottery is indeed a tax on people who are bad at math and I don't really think this is the best use of household resources, I don't do this on any regular basis.
However, I do find some enjoyment of just hanging onto that lottery ticket and thinking that I just might be toting around a small piece of paper that could end up being the key to a very large cash windfall, right there in my purse. That seems to be enough fun and enjoyment for my $2-$3 dollar yearly investment in the lottery.
