Win the lottery: what a good idea!

All I can do is shake my head in amazement:
About one out of five Americans believe that winning the lottery is the most practical way of attaining personal wealth, according to a survey released in January by the Financial Planning Association and the Consumer Federation of America. Among Americans with salaries of $25,000 or less, 38 percent believe the lottery is the way to go.
This comes from <http://www.bankrate.com/bos/news/BoomerBucks/20060111a1.asp>; the survey cited is at <http://www.consumerfed.org/pdfs/Financial_Planners_Study011006.pdf>.
