WIFE TEACHES HUSBAND LESSON ABOUT WASTING MONEY ON LOTTERY

Buddy Blackwell of Leicester, North Carolina, asked his wife Glenda to pick up some Powerball tickets Saturday. She wanted to teach him a lesson about how the lottery is a waste of money. So she bought a $10 Carolina Millions scratch-off ticket to show him the folly of playing the lottery. She won $1 million. “I was going to be ugly and buy a scratch off to show him they didn’t hit,” Blackwell said. “Sometimes I get aggravated with him, so I tell him, ‘You’re just wasting your money.'” She scratched off the ticket and immediately realized her plan wasn’t going to work. “I had to eat my words,” Blackwell said. “But those are pretty good words to eat.”
* Delicious, in fact.
* This is historic. It’s the one time something wasn’t the husband’s fault.
* Of course, that’s only because it came out good.
* So … does he get any of the money?
* I bet by this time next week she finds something else about him to be aggravated by.
* She didn’t want him buying lottery tickets? So typical in a marriage: Take the last little bit of delusional hope and try and stamp it out.
* I like the husband’s approach: He wants to be rich but he doesn’t want to get the tickets himself. No, that’s way too much hassle.
* So I guess the moral here is that gambling is good for marriage.
