Do you play the lottery?
 

Randomly bought a euro millions, and what time is it drawn btw???

Sometimes I give my mum or nan a pound to get me a lucky dip, I will do it once or twice a month when Im 16 though. :)

we hardly ever do the lottery!
:(

Friday Sometime after 7:30.


And i play occasionally, havent for a while..

Once in a while.

You only need to play it 144,000 times to win

REALLY?

and yes once a month

Well statistically you have a 1 in 144,000 chance of winning the jackpot so yes :joker:

oh LOL got my hopes up then

Yes £1 a week.

You never know.:D

Yes every week :blush:

Well just spend 144 grand and you get a couple of million jackpot...

I will win it every week.

Make millions.

You'd have to put on every possible combination for that :joker:

Might take you a week to fill all the slips in!

I play twice a week. Have got 4 numbers twice and 3 numbers a few times. Nothing bigger than that yet but you can live in hope.

Or £2
for the Bigger Amount €uro
like this Friday a Mega £40Million.

I'm 16, i have payed the lottery but i'm a 16 year old, i have better things to do with my dosh :P.

However my mum has been playing the same line for 14 years.. So only time can tell..

I learnt something in school about the lottery, did you know 10,000 people a week play the line: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Occassionally

I play when it's a huge amount.

It is a tax on the poor.

People have no concept of population size or odds and so think they can win. you will not win. save your money.

Yep, save your money. The odds of winning anything at all, even a tenner, are VERY slim.

"There are 20 combinations of 3 from 6, so the chance of a 3 match is 1 in 1133.119/20 or 1 in 56.7."
"6 numbers are drawn at random from the set of integers between 1 and 49, which means there are 49!/(6!*(49-6)!) combinations of numbers - this means that the jackpot chance is 1 in 13,983,816 or approximately 1 in 14 million."

So, you'd have to spend £57 to win £10 and £14mil to win usually half of that. Haha good luck!

The lottery is the most open and prevelant illustration of the fault of human thinking. This is the stuff Derren Brown has made a career of pointing out. You won't win. Save yer cash.

Only ever once! What a waste of a pound!

eh...I bought a scratchcard when I turned 16 and won a £1. such a pointless win LOL.

People found guilty of giving scratch cards as birthday presents to teens should suffer severe custodial sentences.

You want me to give you a kiss on the cheek and thank you for the meagre chance you have given me to possibly win a meagre amount of money?

Yeah, cheers dude. Could have just bought me Nuts.

Some people win
