Does anyone still seriously think they will one day win the Lottery jackpot...... yes I know that someone wins it, and if you dont try- you cant win & all that but after 10 years or whatever it is now do you still live in hopes of cracking it one day?

Can you imagine what the bookie would say if you went in and said "Have you got a horse whose odds are fourteen million to one?"

The simple fact is that people DO win the lottery jackpot. And, except on rare occasions, they usually win more than £1 million as their share of the jackpot. IMHO if you can spare £1 it is worth a go on the main Lotto game because a win really would change your life - but don't bother with the other games.

I probably spend less than £10 a year on tickets, usually when they hype it up if it's a rollover. Yes, I know that I don't have a better chance of winning, but somehow they psychologically trick me into buying a ticket! I bought a £1 scratchcard online yesterday and won £7 so that's not too bad is it?! I sometimes dream about where I would put my sofa in my mansion but I think everybody does don't they? The majority of the time I am realistic and I know that I will never win it big. But on the other hand....never say never!!

No, I don't think I will ever win, but the hope that I get,as well as the hours of fantasy about what I would do with the money, are more than worth the 2 dollars I spend twice a week.

Even more so because I know a lottery winner who won 9 mil 2 years ago.
We all hope of winning something .

certainly not. I dont play the lottery (ok, maybe once or twice a year) and in fact I think I am a winner in a way by saving myself loads of dosh- had I played the lottery every week for the last 10 years!!
Never live in hope- you will waste your life doing this.

I always think that half the time they make the names up so that they can pay for new celebrity guests to come onto the show to press the button!
