I figured they pay for the advertisments up front, so if they hadn't sold out then it would play the adverts up until the day of the draw... Also they're obviously planning on running another draw after this so no harm in getting as much advertising as possible.
€1M for a website is a bit much though...

Damn, i set up a new thread. Anyway i got myself a ticket. Bring it on!!

Epic Tissue

Damn, never heard of this!

Messed Up Mind

Yep. Have my ticket. Everyone in my family (6 of us) pitched in a few quid to get two tickets. Might as well try our luck anyway! Sure the National Lottery do need money to pay for their ridiculously overpriced website

And isn't it terrible to say that in this day and age, I couldn't really give up my job. Pay of the mortgage, get a nice car, few holidays and you'll be left with some savings. Still, I'm looking forward to waking up tomorrow morning a happier man.

Those people who say that money can't by happiness are deluded.

I like what you did there. That's ingenuity at it's finest.

Epic Tissue

Nah you couldn't live off a million to support a family. OP already said why - "Pay of the mortgage, get a nice car, few holidays and you'll be left with some savings."

1,000,000 euro is the equivilant to earning 35k a year for 28 years (with enough for a decent car left over).

I know plenty of people that support a family on that. Not to mention the intrest would be handy on that.

If you did not run out like a muppet throwing money around you could live off it fine.

sure you could

you'd get 7% if you invested it with any real thought; 7% of a million is 70k in hand thats 40k to live off and 30k to re-invest each year to stay ahead of inflation whats a nice car? are we talking 6 figures here? if so then what he acually means is if i wanted to live life as a millionare i'd have to keep working but to maintain my current lifstyle a million clear would be enuff
