BUYING hope.
You could spend just S$1 on the lottery's QuickPick option and let the computer choose the numbers, or you could go big with S$924 on a System 12 bet. Whatever you do, you are buying a tantalising whiff of possibility.
Every year, lines form outside Singapore Pools outlets islandwide as punters brave the scorching sun and heavy rain for a shot at the Hongbao Draw jackpot.
