Who Are the Lucky Lottery Winners: Men or Women?
So who are the lucky lottery winners, men or women? Sounds like a pretty loaded question to me. While we’re not going to be able to provide a definite answer to this question we’re going to give it our best shot to find out which gender are the lucky lottery winners.
First, let’s take a look at who’s luckier when it comes to gambling in general so we can at least have a basis for our short study.
Winner.com, which is a casino site, did a study about gambling that mentioned that men are likely to win 45% of the time while the women’s tally is only at about 39%. The reason? Men are usually engaged in the thing that they’re playing. They care about winning and study the best ways to play before gambling, doing what they can to put the odds in their favor.
Women, on the other hand, are known to play on more of entertainment platform. They usually care much less about winning than men do and place smaller bets.
So what in the world does this have to do with who are the lucky lottery winners? I’m not quite sure it has anything whatsoever to do with it, but there really are no other statistics to base it on. Winning the lottery is an extreme crapshoot. What men usually call ‘putting the odds in your favor’ turns into, ‘maybe I’ll buy a few more tickets.’
If there truly are lucky lottery winners, here’s the reasons men trump women in that respect:
Men Are Lucky Lottery Winners Because They’re More Likely to Buy Tickets
Men are probably always going to be luckier than women because they play more. Maybe the percentages aren’t always going to work out in their favor, but men are almost always going to be more adept to play more games and buy more lottery tickets than women.
There’s a gambling trait in most men that you just don’t find in women, or at least that you don’t find to the extreme that you find in men. Men have always been known to take more risks than women, while women are known to play things on a safer level.
None of these are meant to be prejudice against either sex, it’s just the way it is. So please, easily offended people, settle down just a tiny bit.
Men Are More Likely to Have Some Type of Set Plan
Now I’m completely aware of the odds that come with winning the lottery, especially the bigger jackpots. I’m also completely aware that most people will agree that there really can’t be a strategy when it comes to playing the bigger games. But we’re going to disagree with that just a little bit here.
While most people would call it being superstitious we’re going to call it being a strategist. It sounds much better and makes me feel better about all my dumb superstitions that have lost me thousands of dollars in my lotto career.
Men are more prone to set up a plan for their gambling habits. Maybe they buy scratchers every Tuesday at 2:00 at the same convenience store. Maybe they play the same numbers for every single jackpot. It can be any type of plan for that matter. While it might not seem like a plan would make someone luckier with a crapshoot like a lottery, I’d like to believe that someone with a plan at least has a slightly better chance. There’s gotta at least be some good vibes flowing your way when you have a strategy in place. Right?
All in all, these reasons mean so little in the end game of which gender is the lucky lottery winners. If there is a luckier sex when it comes to gambling, we’re going to put our money on men for the reasons we listed here.
The funny thing about our reasons is that it actually has nothing to do with the gender of the person playing. So women, you too can increase your luck by following the men’s lead. Yea, I know, I was pretty sure you were going to say that you’ll never stoop to our level.
