It could be you, EuroMillions hits £100 million!
Out of all the doom and gloom in society it seems that one lucky person could be in line to win the jackpot of a lifetime with the EuroMillions hitting £100 million for the draw tonight. Record sales have proceeded the draw which if claimed by one person would be the largest lottery win in the world. So could it be you?
While it is easy to get caught up in the hype of the EuroMillions draw it is claimed there is more chance of Heather Mills becoming PM that you have of winning the draw! So why do we do it?
For many people the dream will soon evaporate after the draw but for a lucky band of people the dream will just be starting. It is perhaps this period between buying your ticket and the draw being held that we all move into a new world, a world where we have £100 million to spend, a world where there are no money troubles.
You may not win the draw tonight but there is no denying the fact that the very thought you have as much chance as the next person is very therapeutic and can lift the doom and gloom of everyday life for just a little while.
