Is playing the lottery the stupidest thing a person can possibly do, or is there some redeeming value to throwing your money at state-sponsored games of chance? Author Stephen Taylor, a lifelong non-gambler, wanted to find out. Using himself and his wallet as a guinea pig, Taylor set out to play the lottery and find out for himself. "My Visit to Lotteryville" tells the story of the author's personal experience with society's mega-sized experiment in creating ranks of (a few) winners and (a lot of) losers with humor and a paycheck's worth of cash-bought insight.
