My stupid mate has no pension, even though our company puts in up to 10% if he wanted one, he has a family and buys lottery tickets all the time.

I'd wait until you've actually started to receive your pension before drawing the "stupid" conclusion. If it still exists in any meaningful way.

Don't count your Chickens and all that.

youโ€™re actually more likely to die in a traffic accident on the way to buying your lottery ticket than you are to win big.

Who knows how reliable that is, but it sounds right.
