I think prospectors are more likely than vintage collectors to be buyers of scratch off lottery tickets.
They buy them because they like the thrill of gambling. And there is a bit of research involved so they can pay themselves on the back if they “hit.”
No self-respecting person should play slot machines or buy a lottery ticket; yet surprisingly enough they do. Whatever is the underlying emotion that compels them to do that is likely what drove this guy to pay $50k for a card of nobody who wants to be a somebody but will never be an anybody.
