    Mad, I know :mad:; I had nearly 40K, and went for broke at the start of 2013 and stepped it up to nearly 60K. I am only prepared to gamble on the Interest I know I'm losing if I had it invested wisely! So far it is a very poor return but hope springs eternal, as the saying goes. I'll probably hang on until the end of the year anyway, and meanwhile I'll dream impossible dreams of that cool million, or even the 20K or - or - or 1K!!! (I'm well named in "FoolsGold".) :rolleyes:

    28/6/13 - €100 (€50 x 2)
    Since November 2012 on 30K - €450.00

    Nothing for May & was beginning to think June was going to be the same.

    Now €6k in the €200 per month direct debit purchases (separate to the €30k) & still not a sign of a win on them so far.

    If my figures are correct it would seem the PB fund is now about 1,792,091,429 Euro as of the end of June 13,
    Which means at the moment there are about 286,734,629 bonds.

    During June I reckon the PB fund only grew by 12,571,430 Euro,
    Which means there will be an extra 2,011,429 bonds in each draw during July compared to June.

    I would estimate that on average there was a net growth in the PB fund of 661,654 Euro each working day during June.

    I bought 25 euro (the minimum) of prize bonds last week.
    That way I can just forget I have them.

    Then maybe in 30 years time, BOOM, 1 million euro appears in my account! Or even 75 euro would be very nice.

    You had better keep on hurling because the €75 went "wide" of the mark and is reduced to €50. Yes, I know, even €50 has its own point.

    Just a tip guys, if you are going to post your winnings it would be helpful if you would post how many you have if you're ok with that.
