Just wondering if anyone else did?
How many lines did you buy? Did you win anything?
I had 3 lines and matched 2+2stars so hopefully should be about £15 bring on next weeks estimated £90m
Nope.
Like all gambling the house almost always wins. I've never understood the lottery... I've always wondered why people who do it don't just buy Premium Bonds, lottery but you get it back!
Yeah truth be told I never do it unless it's like the stupid amount rollovers :L idk but somehow they always come around when I'm generally in a more happy upbeat mood and think why not but yes the lottery does seem dumb when you look at the numbers >.< on the other hand william hill wont be happy when I am through with there £30 free on their online casino half way to the £200 limit
My mother always does it and I'm like "mum, they have 90mil rollovers because people like you rush to buy it!". If I have a spare quid in my wallet (not too manly. It's a fluffy pink bunny wallet.) I stick the lotto on sometimes. =P

Always wanted to buy bonds but never understood them. Keep forgetting to look into it properly...
I know but when you have £2 lying around it can be rather tempting knowing all i was going to use it for was some chips :L I'm happy to take the gamble and make a sandwich for lunch :)

Well I do see it as helping me diet... There's chocolate, or the very very slim chance of being a millionaire...

Don't bother.
Chances of winning a million are 1 in 40 billion... 100K is about 1 in 11 billion. Interest works out at about 1.5%, about half what you could expect from a decent savings account.
It's only really good when you have enough money to be taxed a fair whack. External Media
Haha I guess so :P but yeah the chances are very small :/
I wonder if anyone did take a chance today? Or maybe I'm the only person who gambles on here

Wow I didn't realise they were that bad External Media and true but if you had a lot of money I'm pretty sure you tend to send it off with a little passport for a holiday in switzerland External Media

I'm sure someone else did. Probably just not online right now. Or just afraid to admit it. ;D
Ah but I'm rather a 0.0000001% chance to become a millionaire than a 99% chance of getting even chubbier! =(

Or if you're a big company you just hold the taxman to ransom and offer a 6th of what you owe. I'm looking at you Vodafone...

Lottery is 1 in about 14 million (I think). You can set up saving acounts online really easily now Booties.

Oi! Stop it at once! You're not chubby.
Take it from one who is. External Media
Any more of this and I will have to resolutely cheer you up - and you won't enjoy it one little bit!

It's the bum/thighs/arms! I have bingo wings and I'm not even out of my teens! D;
Also I have chosen not to stop as I am intrigued as to how being cheered up can be unenjoyable... ;D

Oh bah, I'll stick to the odd Saturday Lotto then...
Thank you, my financial advisor =)
No, but really, that's helpful. I'm so bad with bank things. I log into my online account swiftly, avoiding any mention of ISA, DPR, APR, ISO, N.N%...
