My Worst Money Nightmare

When lottery jackpots are over $100 million, I like to buy one or two tickets on a chance to win. For sentimental reason, I typically play one set of numbers related to important dates for our family.

My worst money nightmare is having my numbers win, when I haven't purchased a ticket.
