Long wait in line to buy a lottery ticket

Thursday, pension day, $100 million lotto draw.
I enter store and the were about a dozen elderly customers wanting to but lottery tickets.
Each person took at least 5 minutes for the transaction. Some longer. Rummaging around in their purses. Checking last weeks tickets.
After 23 minutes I purchase my ticket in less than a minute, having my money ready beforehand.
This is what I have to look forward to in the coming decades?

Unfortunately yes. I do the same thing as you. Money is in hand before I get to the clerk.

I remember my father complaining about the same thing decades ago.
