If you play the Lottery, here are some things to keep in mind:

  • Money needed for daily expenses should not be used for playing the Lottery

  • Set a limit. Don't chase your losses and risk getting deeper into a hole

  • Set some winnings aside for other purposes

  • Winning and losing are both part of playing the Lottery and other gaming activities. If you're only prepared to win, you're not prepared to play the Lottery

  • Playing the Lottery is a recreational activity and not an alternative to work

Common Lottery Myths:

  • You get nothing for your lottery purchase if you don’t win a prize, and since there are relatively few winners, hardly anyone actually benefits from the lottery

  • The lottery makes and keeps all the money

  • If lottery sales are allowed on the internet, compulsive and underage gambling will rise

  • There is no assurance that lottery drawings are conducted fairly
