£100,000,000 on this firdays Euromillions?

Anyone know the percentage of lotto and euromillions jackpot winners that won using luckiy dip?
 
You speakth the truth. Each and every time I do the lottery I go for a lucky-dip. Otherwise if I use memorable numbers or anniversary dates and catch hold of the results in a week when I haven't done it I'll kick myself.

kick yourself? id shoot myself..
 
Hey 10k would help me pay off some CC bills and other bills as well as give me more than enough left over to save and spend on some additional extras :D Either way we win on OCUK!
 
When I win this later I'll split it amongst us all. Well I say all, just some of you. I'll do something nice...maybe get us all a cake. But not a big cake, just something simple. Maybe donuts.
 
can you actually get normal bank accounts that pay interest daily though? surely that would make it compound up horrendously for the bank.
 
ok - out of interest, is that what most bank accounts do but pay it monthly? i.e. they work out how much you would get for 12 months at your current balance and then divide by 12? Or do they take compounding into account when they give you the annual figure to make it seem bigger?
 
I don't work in finance but I believe most high street banks pay/compound interest on a monthly basis on savings I think the AER(Annual Equivalent Rate) figure they give takes compounding into account

it varies between accounts, some measure daily but pay monthly, some measure monthly but pay yearly, I think you'd be hard pushed to find one that paid daily, but you generally end up with the same annual rate
