Shortly after 11 p.m. Wednesday night, some lucky Powerball player might receive a life-changing windfall of cash. I don’t need to nag about how unlikely that lucky player is going to be you.
Still, it’s human nature to be optimistic, so I’ve been playing the Powerball nonstop. Since I don’t have the cash to fund a lavish gambling habit, I’ve found five different simulators that allow me to play the odds. I’ve spent around $100,000 of fake money, and barely made more than an imaginary four grand in return. Somebody’s got to (pretend)win, but so far it hasn’t been me.
Want to try your luck while keeping your wallet secure? Here are five different ways to play the lottery thousands of times without losing a (real) cent.
