Default Re: Critique this internet business idea: pooled lottery tickets

People who buy most lottery tickets aren't looking to maximize return and reduce risk and such; they're looking to score that big one so they don't have to work anymore. Your system spreading the winnings among all the participants would basically eliminate the main reason these people play the lottery. Back to the drawing board.
