he brought her for a meal to pizza express looolThis is why I never buy lottery tickets as giftsA girl from my town won £8m! Another family from town won 10m but no one ever found out who from what I know! My mums boss was retiring and she bought him a lotto ticket for his card, bought herself one too, his ticket was over 6k on it! I would be sick!
Yep. I bought my hairdresser one as a Christmas gift once and she won £250! I was delighted for her, but also insanely jealous as I've never won more than £20.This is why I never buy lottery tickets as gifts
If you won a million, you’d probably put some of it in a high yield investment account, with regular savings % you’d make no money off it.
if I had had 31 instead of 30 I'd have landed 31 million, freaking one number out was the difference between 1700 hundred an 31 million 
plans for a house went out the window that day Oh my - for 5 numbers I’d have thought at least £100k!! I can only imagine how gutted you felt! Still £1700 is better than a slap in the face but still…I got 5 numbers on the lottery once, thought I was well into big money, was thinking I'd get money put into a house, yeah turned out 5 numbers got me £1700
I did get 3 numbers on the Irish lottery though once, I pick 3 numbers an put a fiver on it an it got my £3500, so put it all into taking me an my folks to orlando for two weeks, I did need to add some more money but it paid the bulk of it, my mum does £1 on her 3 numbers an it's £700ish which is not bad
That was exactly what I was thinking as well, honestly the £1700 was all spent towards bring a bridesmaid at my brothers weddingOh my - for 5 numbers I’d have thought at least £100k!! I can only imagine how gutted you felt! Still £1700 is better than a slap in the face but still…
I should have said no an just spent it on me Bloody too right you should’ve! I’d send your brother an invoiceThat was exactly what I was thinking as well, honestly the £1700 was all spent towards bring a bridesmaid at my brothers wedding
A friend of a friend won this in Aussie - $20k/month for 20 years. She still lives in the same house and drives the same car as she did before she won, but quit her job to volunteer for an animal charity which she props up financially too. She's always been really careful with money and still is.I’d love to win the set for life where you get 10k a month for 30 years. A nice amount easy to hide
Whenever I have bought someone a lottery ticket, I’ve always chosen the same numbers for myself, so we would have to share the prize if they won, not that they would get to know who the other person was!A girl from my town won £8m!

Sounds like she needs a brain transplant.
I have won about a thousand quid over the years doing the Irish lottery. Have not done it for ages though, as I live nowhere near a betting shop.I got 5 numbers on the lottery once, thought I was well into big money, was thinking I'd get money put into a house, yeah turned out 5 numbers got me £1700

Omg that’s awful
wish the email would just say how much has been won!You’ve just described my familyI imagine no matter how much you give some people it would never be enough. I’d be so tempted to keep the win to myself and emigrate without telling anyone
