Buy your ticket for only $2 in participating states, including New York, New Jersey, Florida and Georgia, among others.
Wait for the drawing, which takes place every night at 9:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).

Receive daily or weekly payments according to the prize obtained.
Opt for a lump sum, although in this case you will receive a reduced amount all at once.
It is advisable to consult a financial advisor before making a decision, as taxes can significantly affect the final amount.

Play responsibly. Remember that the lottery is a game of chance.
Do not use common combinations as birth dates, as many people tend to choose them.
