I want 100 million, they say you cant spend it bollocks, a boat and cars is 60 million, that's without crew, then a house cars bikes, I couldn't even buy a jet or fuck all.

Don't do the lottery. But do do a fair number of random competitions, mostly stuff like the MCN mags, twitters stuff and other stuff linked to on Money Saving Expert forums. Just while away the time whilst watching some crap the wife has on the telly... Not won anything huge, but plenty of small stuff; Samco Hoses, show tickets, ipad, headphones, bluray player, fancy after shave etc. Key thing is no initial spend, so no loss (other than time). Some I keep, some make good birthday presents, some I flog on.

Technically he's just had a Brucie Bonus by doubling his money then.

Do you not get bombarded with spam email?

[Arfa]

Yes. But I just have a separate account with some clever filters to pick out any notification of having won and a retention policy to bin anything over a month old.

I was out on exercise once and one sunday morning rang my wife (now ex) who informed me we had 6 numbers!!
I was bouncing round the phone box thinking what I would say to my WO, when she dropped the bomb shell,, yeah 4 on one line & 2 on the other!!!
 
ffs £78!!!
glad it was before mobile phones and I didn't just go & punch him

 So can we deduce Fazer owners are unlucky at state sponsored gambling or are all the big winners now ex Fazer owners? Perhaps you would find more lottery winners on the Desmosedici Owners Forum?

I was just thinking the same, with all due respect I'd now probably be on the Y2K Turbine motorbike forum asking how I could make it go faster.

That's why I stopped playing the Euromillions, the prizes seem to be all or very little.

Wow! Then I'm winning even more than I realised!

[robby boy]

I was in a works syndicate when it first started, we used to get handed about 15 quid at the end of the year, when they went to 2 draws per week we put it to the vote to see if we would do it once or twice, me being a tight foccer came out of the syndicate when they decided to play Saturday and Wednesday draws, the following week they had 5 numbers and the bonus £30,000 to each of them foc all to me.
