In the USA it is common for companies to give away gifts as a form of advertising. A company may hold a free drawings as one way to get a list of people interested in their product. There isn't anything wrong with entering a drawing, you are not risking or gambling with your own money and no one loses anything.

The primary motivation for me to avoid the lottery has always been the idea that in order for me to win everyone else has to lose the money that they used to buy the tickets. And some of those people have very little to lose. I never want to wish anything bad on anyone.

Of course avoiding the idea of what the world calls 'Lady Luck' is just as important.

No pun intended? You? Hard to believe.

Actually I read it about a month ago. Had sort of forgotten about it. It pretty much says what I was trying to say, just a lot more words.

I once won a car at the Brisbane motor show. I had a choice of 9 cars and picked the Toyota corona for resale value. I sold the car and with some extra $ bought a block of land, built a house and voila there it is. I was landscaping for a large company and finished at 3am and picked up a couple of free tickets to the show. My wife's relatives wanted to go to the show for free and so i went with them and put my 2 entries in the box [100,000 entries] and then later I got a call from the event CEO that I had won and come down and pick which car I wanted. When she saw me she knew that I had worked at the show and just said  "Don't enter next year ok? " The only thing I have won since is a free chocolate bar. :o)
