Why e-Lottery Makes Perfect Sense

The chances of being struck by lightning are approximately 1 in 700,000, if you are daft enough to venture out on a stormy day. The bookmakers are also giving odds of eight million to one on Heather Mills becoming the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.  You may find it somewhat surprising that both these wagers are safer bets than purchasing a £1.50 Euro Millions ticket for the weekly Friday night draw, which last week offered a prize of £100 million.  The odds on scooping the Euro lottery jackpot are remote at 1 in 76,275,360. It’s therefore hardly surprising that Ianthe Fullagar, an 18 year old law student from Cumbria, was ecstatic when she realized she had won a £7 million share of the EuroMillions payout – no one matched the 5 main numbers and 2 lucky stars, so the £100 million was shared amongst the next winning tier; the 15 who matched the 5 main numbers and 1 lucky star number.  If you would like a 3600% advantage over the Euro Millions ticket buying public, come and play as a member of an e-Lottery syndicate.
