    Since those lottery systems are about making money for the ones organizing them. The chance of getting more money out of it than you put in is extremely small. And the bigger the jackpot, the slimmer the chance.

    Because those lottery organizers are definitely not going to lose money on it.

      At least in Germany, and many other countries, the organizer is the state (and only the state, other lotteries are outlawed), and the profits are used for public benefit.
