Because we  have a limited amount of money  to enjoy gaming, we need to have a plan. Today i will share with you my way, perhaps yours is  better. 

First, I try never to use my own money. Mrs. Dufflebags taught me that years ago. 

I Have a box That has cash for only playing all gaming whether   Daily game. video slots or instant games. 

When I win money  on a scratch off it goes in that box. If I win on video slots It goes in the box. if I hit the pick 3 or 2 it goes in the box. Every night I put the money in and take it out the next day. (the best thing I do)  I don't leave it in my wallet. That is my book keeping. Depending how much is in it in the morning determines  how much comes out.

When the box has a lot I buy more of everything being careful not to spend it all.

I know I will buy over the next 30 days an avg. of 10 pick daily at lest 25 times this month and 20$ a day in scratch offs and 10$ in video slots. around 1200$ a month. 

If  the box gets  low I slow down:1st to go instant games as they really eat up the money fast ( u can buy 10 pick 3 for one 10 instant .)  then the video slots 

I enjoy the pick 3 most.   

I never use household or main job money for my hobby. If the box goes empty I pick up aside job or sell something on line.

 Hope this Helps
