Luck with retired or close to retirement?

Why is it that all luck related like lottery’s and grand prizes even at Wealthsimple are won by people who have either retired or are close to retirement?

It’s very rare to see someone who is just starting or is in mid 30s or 40s winning such big prizes..the home giveaway was also won by someone who was looking to retire and 90% of lottery winners are retired.

What am I missing? I obviously don’t buy 100 tickets or lotteries per draw but do they? What are the odds?

Looking forward to the $3m home giveaway winner in Vancouver..what do yall think?
