Is the Lottery actually a good investment?

I unironically feel like $2 a week to the lottery is not a waste of money. It's literally nothing, I just imagine it as instead of buying a drink or something I bought a tiny tiny chance to win big. I know it sounds retarded and the odds aren't as good as other stuff, but you literally don't have to do anything you just set it to go automatically and might one day just receive an email telling you you made it.
What do you anons think? Am I being retarded?

>>	Anonymous Sat Jul 23 04:05:58 2022 No.50518775 The odds are almost impossible, but for the price of a coffee it's not that costly. Although, $2 per week adds to $104 at the end of the year.
