This is an as-told-to essay based on a conversation with Imelda Collins, who is selling her house in Ireland via an online raffle. Each entry is 5 euros (about $6.75), and people can buy multiple entries. The drawing is scheduled for Thursday, May 22, at 10 a.m. local time. The conversation has been edited for length and clarity.
