Let's see what we know about winning the lotto. People who do not buy the tickets will never win. We know that for sure! 

People who win the lotto are often the ones who buy the tickets on a regular basis, every time they are in a grocery store et cetera. 

There is a well documented story about one of the winners. His mother was used to buy the tickets. And before she passed away, she made her son promise that he would continue to buy the tickets and never stop. He kept his promise to his mother and a few years later he won the-million dollar lotto.
