conv: A friend of mine bought a scratch off ticket at the gas station and won $2000. I buy them all the time and only win a couple bucks here and there. Last week a friend of mine won $2000 on a scratch off ticket. I buy those things all the time and never win squat. Wow_comma_ that's incredible. What's their secret?  Right place_comma_ right time I guess. Some people are just lucky. Congrats to your friend. I hope they share!
