Indeed, but you can look at it another way it's the closest they will ever come to winning the main prize.

Unless of course you decide to buy some nappies instead of putting the lottery on and your numbers come up, you then believe you still win it and 6 weeks later you do actually have the right numbers. <<--- Lucky bastards. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-humber-12396748

Is it only me that finds that more than a bit far fetched?
What are the odds of the same numbers coming up for both the Lottery and the Euro Lottery?
Also if they couldn't afford to live on the money they have why are they spending more money they haven't got on Lottery tickets?
And yes, before anyone says, I am rather envious!!

There is no way on earth id work again.simple as that.Does my head in people who say "it wont change me " and carry on working the checkout at the asda.Fuck off.give your job to someone who needs it.youve millions in the bank.If you want to work open your own business doing something you love and create jobs.Me id do neither.I wouldnt work, id have a few boss houses and apartments across the globe and i would live life.Lifes short.If you win something like this whats the point in hoarding it?

Agree completely. No fucking way I'd be getting out of bed every morning to go and work if I didn't have to. Fuck that, let someone else do it who needs the money.

I think there must be some little twist to it all, wouldn't surprise me if true though, some people are just lucky fuckers.

First time last night I didn't bother in playing the Euro's, simply couldn't be arsed. Checked my usual numbers and not a penny, so £2 up!

A rollover and 18 guaranteed UK millionaires (via the raffle) tonight

For 2 successive EM lotteries I have had both Lucky Stars and I only do 1 line. First time I won £10.50 and second time £6.80 or something like that.

Just to let you all know I will be winning 160grand before Christmas on my works euromillions. I'm farly confident in my chances and have been picking out houses and new kitchens so it has to happen now. I will of course offer the opportunity for RAWK to share some of my winnings once I have it. I plan on holding competitions with cash prizes such as 'wear a superhero costume to work for a week and win 500smackers' etc. I'm sure this will liven this place up and bring me, and others, a great deal of joy.

We done 65 lines last night. Our 13 regular lines and used our £104 kitty to get another 52 lucky dips.

Winnings from this was £2.20. Two punds and twenty fucking pence.

Standard. We had £130 in our pot from that left over having used the rest throughout the year and those huge roll overs. We decided rather have £20 each, than waste it on 65 lines and win nothing.

It is, but a few hundred now and then would be nice.

Wow. Saw on news today in the States, someone could win $500 million in the biggest ever lottery win tonight (around £340 mill) (if they don't take a lump sum instead).

Craigeth · « **Reply #254 on:** March 30, 2012, 11:13:18 am »

It's a $540M Jackpot but it's $389M if you take it as a lump sum. That's crazy money that!

What happens if the company who runs the lottery over there goes bust for whatever reason, would you lose the cash if you'd decided to take it in instalments over 15 years or so? Would i take the risk for another $150million

Think I read somewhere they get around $19 million per annum if they want it yearly. Didn't know that the lottery gets taxed over there either.

It buys loads of sex off young, fit, nubile bimbos (or studs if that's your preference) though doesn't it? Not the same I know, but it's a very good second. And a boss boat. I'd tend to not feel too sorry for the owner of that boat if he was dripping in a different bit of totty every night but complained that he couldn't get any of them to love him.
