So, he prays to god.

Every night for 50 years.

Night, after night, after night, he prays.

"Please god, please, let me win the lottery."

Mm-hmm.

And finally,

an angel goes to god, and he says,

"god, why don't we let this guy win?"

And you know what god says?

What?

God says,

"i want to...

But he's never bought a lottery ticket."

- Oh. - You see?

- It was a good story. - Yeah, it's all right.

Hello, my name is James Harvey, and I'm calling from--

good afternoon, this is Robert boucher.

Mr. abbott, I'm calling from millennium realty...

I was just wondering if, uh...

You might have seen a mailer from us.

Maybe we have to start with the market as a whole.

Just give me a second.

Hello.

Mr. umberto,

it's James Harvey, millennium realty.

Yes, I wanted to call and let you know

that in the next few months

about a dozen houses in your neighborhood

are gonna be foreclosed.

And once the bank forecloses those houses,

the overall property value for the block goes down.

Pretty soon what you had, what you have now, isn't worth much.

Split it between these.

So, I'm calling you today with an offer.

It's not going to knock you off your feet, but it's fair.

It's fair, and it will help you find another place to live.

So, let's start by doing this, can you write a number down?

I'm gonna give you my personal number.

This is not a company extension.

I'm not calling you from India.

You can call me anytime,

I'll be with you through this process.

I'm your point man, I'm your guy.

Now, the only question that remains, Mr. umberto, is...

Do you have a pen?

Bit on the heavy side? -You think it's serious?

What's that mean?

I don't know.

Why not?

without bringing that one up?

Oh, damn, do you ask her that?

I see old men and women.

I see young couples.

Why are you all here? Why are you all here?

It's because of your addiction.

Your addiction to debt.

To the economy of debt.

To never picking up when that unlisted number

flashes on your phone.

To waking up in the morning and dodging phone calls.

And red letters.

And finally,

to sitting at home in the dark so you can't get served.

So we go, and we pray.

And we cry.

And we feel sorry for ourselves.

And why? Why do we do that?

It's because we don't have the guts to take action.

To get out of debt.

To sell that car.

To move to a smaller house.

To get that ticket.

We got debt because we can't get jobs.

So we come up with excuses.

"I can't get a job."

"I make too little, the money is too low."

"I can't move ahead."

And-- and maybe that's right.

Maybe you're stuck. Maybe the money is low.

I mean, we all have these problems, right?

We all have these problems.

Then, why do we feel it right to live beyond our means?

Why should we live beyond our earnings?

Oh, I didn't mean that.

"Hmm, this guy got promoted, why not me?"

"I've-- I've been here forever."

"I'm better at this than everybody else."

to leave my family, though.

That might not have been part of my plan,

leaving the family.

Listen, that story you told me...

I got a chance. I reached out, and I got it.

You missed the point of the story.

Oh, am I?

Yeah, yeah, you never got a ticket.

You had one handed to you.

You had a ticket handed to you.

So, you're asking, "why not me"? Hmm?

Maybe I'm asking, "what did you do to deserve it?"

You're jealous.

You are jealous.

And you're being an asshole.

I'm human.

Oh.

Why are you doing this?

-Doin' what? -Oh, come on, Bob!

Why are you doing this to me, huh?

Not really about you, James.

It's all those people we're stepping on.

Oh, don't pretend this is about the people.

Huh?

You were making phone calls screwing people over

well before any of this!

Only difference is you sucked at it!

No, this is about you and me and your inability

to cope with where I'm going!

That's right. It's James against the world.

Have you always felt singled out like this?

You are so jealous!

You think I don't know how you feel about Sam? Huh?

You should go to church more often,

outside of office hours, James.

If I find one more of these things

around the neighborhood,

you will lose your job!

Try and find a new job in this economy, Bob.

A man prays to god...

...for 50 years.

...the same prayer, every night.

"God, please let me win the lottery."

Every single night.

Year after year.

"Please, god...

...let me win the lottery."

And finally an angel goes to god,

and he says,

"god, this man has been praying so long."

"Why don't you let him win?"

And god says, "I'd love to help him,

but he's never bought...

...a lottery ticket."

I see old men and women.

I see young couples.

I see whole families..
