I used to contribute to the communal lottery group at a former workplace. It wasn't because I thought we'd win. But if they had won and I missed out on a multimillion dollar cut, it would have been emotionally devastating. An occasional two dollars seemed like a reasonable hedge against a low-probability, high-impact event. Plus, it had the added benefit of increasing rapport with my colleagues.
Is it stupid NOT to play the lottery?
