It's all about the top prize because that's what attracts people to buy the tickets in the first place. Sure you might have a greater chance of winning a lower prize, but without the huge jackpot in the first place, the breakdown of the other prizes would be lower. I've not once met a person (other than yourself) who buys a lotto ticket in hope to break even, it's pointless. You buy a ticket such a this Euro Millions draw, in the hope of winning the jackpot, just as you would with the normal Lottery. Anything else comes second best.
Find out when you get an email off them in the morning. If you don't you haven't won. Let them do the hard work. Until then, I will assume I haven't won anything.
This is what most people think (as I've come across), I only agree with it slightly.
The reason why I'm not playing tonight? Because I'd rather have £2 in my pocket than wish for an astronomical amount of money by beating astronomical odds. With the amount of money in the jackpot I'd say they should easily halve that, and then make everybody who gets 5 numbers and 1 bonus ball life changingly rich as well. Several hundred thousand is a great win, but it's not enough to 'live off the interest'. That would really entice people to play it as well.
They've partially spread the wealth a bit better but making those who get 2 numbers. That's a step in the right direction but they should still increase all the prizes.
my mate won £1400 on the grand national, when mon mone won and i never asked him for a tenner, true mates would never ask.
Sort of socialist lottery then? Ed Milliband could be the poster boy
I am sure he bought you some pints, lets face it, if you had £85 million, what is £1 million or £250k to you, its nothing, to a mate or friend means living the high life.
So he put £14 on a horse to win at 100-1, hardly winning the lotto is it
asking for cash is scummy.
no its not :/
if you dont ask you dont get , if for example you where desperate for money so you could have a life saving operation how is anyone supposed to know unless you ask ?
i can imagine you sitting there moaning about how your going to die but never mentioning that it could be solved with money just because you think it would be scummy too
this is the thing though i dont care if my mate won a billion pounds, i still wouldnt ask, dont you have any dignity?
if your close mate is truly a close mate then it will be a test to see how good a mate he is if he just gives you some cash without asking for it.
asking for cash is scummy.
wait, I never said I would ask for cash, I am saying I wouldnt give my mates money like I am a ATM machine.
LUL WHAT ARE TEH NUMBERS?!
