If you've never played the lottery before, or even if you have, you've probably heard a whole lot of things that might keep you from wanting to try it out. Especially if you're now looking to play lotto online. So, what are the myths and how do you separate them from the truth? You're going to need a little bit of help to do just that.
You have better odds of winning small jackpots. This is actually false as well. The odds of your jackpot are based on factors that are entirely separate from the prize amount. That's evidenced by the fact that any lottery you play has the same odds no matter how big (or small) the jackpot.
People who play the lottery have a gambling addiction. This is absolutely not true. Yes, there are some people who are addicted to the lottery and gambling, but the two are not necessarily one and the same. People can play the lottery sporadically or play at different times without being addicted.
Winning the lottery will make you happy. This one and its inverse that winning the lottery will make you miserable are both myths. Winning the lottery doesn't have anything to do with your emotional state. If you're smart about the winnings you can make yourself happy and improve your life, but the lottery doesn't guarantee that.
