is it just me or does anyone else find "helping someone else make more money then he should for the sake of winning something with at most 1/100 odds with 1-10m" a little too unwise??
I mean yes there is a chance of winning something that worths 10/100/1000 times of what you invested, however on the other hand you are helping someone to make more money from some X item comparing to the money he would get if he would just sell or put up on contracts...
Doesn't anyone ever feel stupid [it's an extreme adjective may be, but that's how I would feel]?
I know that lotteries IRL works the same way, I feel quite the same about those as well.
BTW some of the lotteries look balanced, I mean considering there will be a 3rd party fee, some incomes are logical, however I have seen people trying to sell 700m worth of stuff for about 1.5b
how does anyone else feels?

The same, but then again, I don't participate in either myself anyway. Lotteries : voluntary//optional taxation on the mathematically challenged

Its like you said, participants get an item cheaper than normal and sellers get more for the item. Not necessarily a bad thing.
Now what NEEDS to happen is ccp seperating the sell orders forum from those lotteries. They are seriously cluttering up the place and annoying as hell.

I'm happy for anybody to fall for any of those scams. The fancier their website the better the scam. More power to them.

Lotteries **** me off. 50% of the "Sell order" subforum is filled with this crap.
