Actually, I haven't..
But I don't know anyone that has either, not even a friend of a friend, or a mate's brother's sister in laws father, no-one I have ever come into contact with, as far as I know, has ever won the Lottery..
I'm starting to think it's a scam and it's pi**ing me off, should I invest my 2 quid a week in something else, like cola bottles or something!!
Anyone on here ever won more than an tenner a year!

I worked with a guy who won about £170k 5 numbers and the bonus ball, but he was a total gambling junkie and spunked the lot in 18 months and had virtualy feck all to show for it.Never argue with an idiot, he'll only drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.0

My old pub syndicate won £110,000 between them.......a couple of months after I left it :shock:
One of the guy's wives hen went on to win about £160,000 on the bingo a couple of weeks later :shock: :shock:
Why do I never have luck like that??0 -
Maybe I'm better off waiting until I'm 75, seems you have a better chance of winning when you can't spent it on the things you would have 50 years age!0

I play lotto.
Just £1 a week on the Saturday draw. Set it up Direct Debit on the website, been playing for 3+ years now, and not even won a tenner :evil:Ride it like you stole it!0 -
most of the time i think its worth the £2 a week just for that feeling on a friday night/saturday morning.
planning what bikes/cars/motorbikes/house id buy.
Yep, I agree with that, what's live without a little hope.0 -
total waste of money. idiotic IMO.I like bikes and stuff0

A girl I used to work with got 6 numbers and the bonus ball or whatever it is, but so did about 10 other people that week, I think she ended up with about £475000, Which is still fooking awsome :-)0

Mate of mine won 120K 6 months later he won 20k on a scratch card....fecker :twisted: :twisted:
done it pretty much every weekend sice it started, only ever got £10 about 3 times :roll:I'm not old I'm Retro0 -
I get a free ticket from the bp station when I fill my car up.
Won nothing so far.0 -
Meh, it's a quid or two each week, and if you DO win, then it's not a waste, is it.joshtp wrote:total waste of money. idiotic IMO.
We've won a few hundred quid in the work syndicate most years.
And I had an uncanny stint of winning £2 on every scratchcard I bought for about a 6 month period a couple of years ago.0 -

he won £120,000 and then £20,000, now lives in France not far from Chamonix for 6 months (para glider) then comes back and does 6 months as an insurance sales man to keep things ticking over.I'm not old I'm Retro0 -
My mate won £47,000 way back in the early 90's, my nan and granddad won £12,000 as part of a syndicate last year. The most I won was £60 on a scratch card.

The National Lottery isn't called a 'Tax on Stupidity' for nothing. You probably wouldn't bet on a horse if was 14 million to one against...."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered." [George Best]0

You say you wouldn't bet on a horse at 14 million to one, but deep down in your heart you would, just because you know it'd make a great story down the pub. People say the odds in the Lottery are rubbish, but that's what it is. It's a game of chance. There is no skill involved, anyone can win big and people do0

Unless the bookie got the odds badly wrong, a horse with that sort of odds would probably have 3 legs.RevellRider wrote:You say you wouldn't bet on a horse at 14 million to one, but deep down in your heart you would, just because you know it'd make a great story down the pub."I spent most of my money on birds, booze and fast cars: the rest of it I just squandered."

Most I ever won was Aus$35 but was due to fly out and there was nowhere open to cash it.
I ended up giving the ticket to the lady cleaning the toilets.I don't do smileys.

Someone I knew drew the first 5 numbers one week. Needed 28 for the jackpot. It was 27.0

I taught someone who's parents won over £1.5M a couple of years ago :shock:
I'll never win in my opinopn it's a waste of money especially for somone who has never even one a packet of crisps.If every action has an equal and opposite reaction does that mean I will be eaten by a fly?0
