Happy New Year, everyone! May 2023 be a good year for all of us.
New Year’s Eve is the biggest party day of the year, and why not? You’ve made it to the end of another year, the days are getting longer, and even the most cynical of us have hopes of a better future. In a world that seems to be spiraling quickly into madness, money still holds power.
The more money you have, the more you can ensure that you and yours have a more comfortable future. Lotto Texas and Powerball can help. Of course, the keyword here is can. These lotteries often have their own plans, and they don’t involve having their jackpots being claimed.
Lotto Texas and Powerball hosted their own party New Year’s Eve 2022. As they dazzled the crowds with playbacks and repeating Combinations, they made out with larger jackpots. Lotto Texas held strong with $27.25 million, and Powerball ascended to $265 million.
