Set For Life
Set for Life is an annuity-type lottery where the Division 1 prize is paid out over a longer period of time rather than as a one-off payment. If you match all winning numbers, you get $20,000 per month for 20 years. That would add up to an amazing $4.8 million.
You can enter Set for Life every day, with draws being held after ticket sales close, at approximately 9:00pm AEST (7:00pm AWST).

How to Play Set for Life
To enter Set for Life, you must pick seven numbers from 1 to 44. After the first seven numbers have been drawn, two other numbers (also known as supplementary numbers) will be drawn from the remaining 37 balls. You cannot choose your supplementary numbers as they are randomly drawn. The supplementary numbers count towards four out of eight prize divisions.
You can go for a QuickPick (or SlikPik in Western Australia) if you want your numbers to be randomly chosen. In most states, a standard entry costs $9.45 and it means two games entered into seven consecutive draws. In Western Australia, you can play just one game into seven consecutive draws for $4.55.
With the Advance entry you can play up to 10 weeks in advance for a specific draw day. You can also opt in for the Multi-Week entry which allows you to enter up to 10 consecutive draws.
Ticket sales close at 9:00pm AEST and 7:00pm AWST in Western Australia, so make sure you enter before those times.
