[quote:Carshy McCarsh:MV8yMDY2MTAxXzM0NzYzNTkxXzRCODZBQUY3] [quote:BRIEF:MV8yMDY2MTAxXzM0NzYzNTY1X0NCNzM3MjIx] You might be poor if... You rent your furniture. You play the lottery. You buy cheap Chinese crap from Wal-Mart. You spend more on bailing wire and duct tape than it would cost to replace your leaky tail pipe. Your TV is bigger than your dinning room table.

States across the nation rely on poor suckers to fund their spending. No, we’re not talking about taxpayers – we’re talking about lottery ticket purchasers. According to new studies, households earning $13,000 per year spend almost $1,170 per year on lottery tickets – 9 percent of total income.
As it turns out, many people living in poverty make poor financial decisions.
