    Easiest question I've seen all day. There is only 1 "correct" answer to this.

    500 lottery scratch tickets. Easily that has more value than $100.

    Even if the tickets were for the smallest sale price of $1 each. That is $500 worth of lottery tickets.

    $500 worth of lottery tickets will typically net about $250.

    So this question might more practically read, "Would you rather have $100 or $250?"

    Like I said - easy question.

    Unless each scratcher is worth like on one cent or something. If they're worth a good amount, definitely the scratchers because then I could earn a lot more than $100. I could donate some and keep some if I had 500 scratchers. I mean I have to win at least one right?

    It depends whether if the lottery scratchers are fake and noone wins. If it is REAL i would have 500 lottery scratchers.

    This is an easy one. 500 scratch lotto tickets. If you look on the back it shows the odds of winning, and it can range from 1 in 4.2 to 1 in 6.7 so just get 500 of a ticket that has better than 1 in 5 odds. That way it is incredibly likely that you will win at least 100$.

    100 dollars isn't THAT much money really

    so i'd take the 500 lottery things it'd be fun to do haha

    plus you'd atelast win like 50 bucks? maybe?

    like 2 dollars here and there adds up after a while

    it really depends on how much each scratcher is worth and what the odds of winning are but i would probably go with the scratchers

    A. Don't wanna live that long honestly. 40 is a good age to die in my opinion.
