A contest is being held.  The three prizes are a $2000 vacation, 1 paid week off work and a $500 camera pack.

In order to enter 1 ticket in the draw you have to contribute $1 per paycheque for the year.  So since there's 26 pay periods in a year each ticket will cost you $26. You can contribute as much as you want.

Let's say there's about 1600 employees in the company. 

How many tickets should you buy to maximize your chances?
