Discretionary Income

Only use discretionary income to play.

A big part of being a responsible Lottery player is only using discretionary income, or money you can afford to lose, to play. Discretionary income is the amount of money you have left to spend, invest or save after you have paid for necessities such as food, shelter and clothing. Some other things you could buy with discretionary income are new shoes, movie tickets or that new best-selling book.

To determine your discretionary income, the Florida Department of Financial Services created theYour Money Matter$ tool.This website aims to provide you with resources for creating personal budgets and spending plans so you can manage your money wisely.

Narrator: Today, we’re going to learn about odds. Let’s say you have a 1 in 4 chance of randomly picking an orange per crate.

We see one crate filled with an orange and three limes. We zoom out to reveal a line of multiple fruit crates.Each filled with one orange and three limes.

Narrator: Multiple crates with the same odds do not guarantee that you will pick an orange once.

A woman walks by and randomly chooses fruit to put in her basket.She continues to walk down the line and pick fruits from the crates.

Narrator: Just like the Lottery, if there is a 1 in 4 chance of winning, that applies to every individual ticket.Having multiple tickets does not increase your odds. The odds are the same, no matter how many times you try.

What are the odds?

No, really, it’s very important that you understand the odds associated with each game. While the odds vary from game to game, the odds of winning all work the same way. We want our players to have fun when playing, so remember, it only takes one ticket to win.

History of the Florida Lottery

The Florida Lottery began in 1986 when voters approved a constitutional amendment establishing a state lottery for the purpose of raising money for educational initiatives. The first tickets went on sale on January 18th, 1988 - six days ahead of the projected launch date of January 18th. The Florida Lottery did so well in its first 17 days of operation that it was able to repay the $15.5 million in start-up funding that it borrowed from the state - plus interest!

In 2016 the FL lottery implemented some changes. The popular daily draw Cash 3 was renamed to Pick 3, while Play 4 and Play 5 were also rebranded as Pick 4 and Pick 5 respectively.

In August 2017, a Panamanian woman made headlines by winning a $30 million Florida Lotto jackpot after playing through an online concierge service. Aura Dominguez Canto signed up from home to play every drawing for a month and staff from the Lotter bought official tickets in Florida on her behalf. They contacted her to inform her of her win and she flew to Tallahassee to pick up her giant check.

Today, the Florida Lottery raises valuable funds for educational initiatives in the Sunshine State through ticket sales. Over $35 billion has been allocated to education since the Lottery began operating in 1988 and more than 800,000 students have gone to college due to the lottery-funded Bright Futures Scholarship.

Buying Florida Lottery Tickets
