Where it would be nice to be able to not have to worry about your holiday shopping, it is important to use discretion when playing. The official Powerball lottery website warns players to play responsibly, writing:
“Lottery games are just that -- games. Lottery games are designed to be enjoyable entertainment for adults, and for the vast majority of lottery players, that's exactly what they are. Multi-State Lottery members sell lottery tickets for the benefits of their citizens, raising millions of dollars for worthy causes and projects.
“The Multi-State Lottery Association encourages all lottery players to be responsible in their amount of play. Never spend more than you can afford on any lottery product. Please remember, it's just a game.”
However, the Powerball lottery games are giving out a large number of prizes each year, as the website ads:
“On Saturday, January 18, 2014, the New Powerball game turned two years old. The game change was a huge success. It met the demands of the players by bringing larger jackpots and by creating many more millionaires. During those two years, there were 34 jackpot winners. There were also 980 Match 5 winners (prizes of $1 million or $2 million). New Powerball has created 1,014 millionaires in its first two years. In total, New Powerball sold $11.2 billion. Half of that was paid out in prizes. Around $4 billion was transferred to the the state's good causes (in just two years; from Powerball alone).”
