Play Responsibly
Lottery games should be treated as entertainment. They are not a financial plan, investment strategy, or reliable way to make money.
Set Limits Before You Play
- Only play with money you can afford to lose.
- Do not borrow money to buy lottery tickets.
- Do not chase losses or believe a win is “due.”
- Keep lottery play separate from rent, mortgage, food, bills, savings, and family needs.
- Take a break if playing stops feeling like entertainment.
