  • If you have a few numbers you like to play, consider playing these numbers over a few draws.

  • Select lump-sum or annuity- You can either receive your winnings in one lump sum, or as 30 annual payments paid over a minimum of 30 years (annuity).
  •  Have a financial planner, attorney, or tax professional guide you through your winnings. Winnings should be managed wisely.
  • Try to remain anonymous.Some states do allow for anonymity, and it may be something to consider for the sake of remaining personally anonymous.

The process of playing Powerball can be so much fun. Do also remember to play responsibly.

  • Determine a budget- only play what you feel you can safely or reasonably spend to purchase tickets for.
  • Assuredly never chase losses- If you’re play is unsuccessful, to buy again will not recoup your lost dollars.
