How to Play Mega Millions
Thank you for participating in the Mega Millions! Tickets cost $2.00 per play. Players select six numbers from two separate pools: five diverse numbers from 1 to 70 (the white balls) and one number from 1 to 25 (the gold Mega Ball). Alternatively, players can choose the Easy Pick/Quick Pick option. To win the jackpot, all six winning numbers must match those drawn.
What Happens If You Win?
If you win the Mega Millions jackpot, you’ll need to choose between two payment options:
- Annuity Option: This option provides an immediate payout followed by 29 annual payments, each increasing by 5% to help offset inflation.
- Cash Option: Alternatively, you can opt for a lump sum payment, which represents the entire jackpot paid in one immediate payment. However, taxes will be deducted right away, significantly reducing the total amount received.
Stay tuned for more updates, and good luck!
