Many people, if not most, would not consider gambling an acceptable subject in financial planning. But with millions of people involved in gaming of all sorts, and billions of dollars, pounds, and euros at stake, why not? Some people gamble only for entertainment; but what if you want to gamble to actually produce income?

Lotto is one of the most widespread forms of wagering. Although no one has yet perfected the technique or the formula to second guess the winning combination, many have figured out how to make decent earnings by guessing the probable winning combinations. Some of them rely on math, while some rely on intuition. The best chance you have of finding the winning combination depends on how you use the most vital ingredient required for every day living – commonsense.

Instead of focusing on expensive strategies that use random combinations you will need to focus on possible winning combinations. You can achieve this just by categorizing winning combinations. If you determine, based on historical data, that the future jackpot will have more numbers from 1 to 9, then you should have combination of numbers that will include at least four numbers from 1 to 9. This way you will not have to buy greater numbers of tickets to increase your odds of hitting the jackpot. By not buying too many tickets you not only save money but also have enough to play another day — the one that might prove to be your lucky day.

Playing in syndicate is also a good idea but then you have to share your prize money with all the members of the syndicate; this means you still report back to office on the following Monday and keep your job. Categorizing numbers doesn’t require a lot of brain power. What you essentially do is target a group of numbers and then try out different combinations. For example, if you have deduced that 1 to 9 may be the combination that you need to focus on, then your combination will be 1,4,6,9,26,30 or 1,2,5,7,36,39 or 1,3,8,11,29,45. Now in these numbers you will note that your focus is on numbers from 1 – 9; the other numbers are ones which have an outside chance of being drawn. With this system you may not necessarily hit the jackpot but you will surely win decent sums of money to finance your future games, and, of course, if Lady Luck happens to smile on you, you can forget going to work on the following Monday.

The commonsense approach demands that you play discerningly. If you are targeting the group from 1 to 9 it would be utterly foolish to draw four numbers in a series like 1,2,3,4 or 6,7,8,9 as the first four numbers; doing this makes your chances of hitting the jackpot or any small prize more or less zero. This means, even before the winning numbers are drawn, you have lost the game. This amounts to literally throwing away your hard-earned cash.

So … how to win lotto? Well, the best strategy is you should zero in on the most probable winning combinations, then use common sense to arrive at the combination of six numbers. If you are disciplined enought to follow this practice consistently, your chance of hitting the jackpot goes up dramatically. If you are going to gamble, do so intelligently, and play to win.
