What you're describing, paying money to get more money, is always a scam! Wake up and smell the coffee!
Legitimate state lotteries are just poor bets. In California it's only a 50% payout. The voters were sold the lottery on the basis of some of the money going to the schools. If the lottery was shut down now, the schools would only loose something like less than 1% of their funding. IMO putting the state in the gambling business was/is a bad idea. It's a bunch of hype targeted a lower income folks. Big payouts are advertised, but in reality annuities are purchased for winners for considerably less than the advertised winning amount.
And it's just a foolish bet. Go to a casino and stick your dollar in a slot machine on on a table where you get a fair payout.
