Fat chance! Since the Lotto was launched in 1994, it has created over 1,600
millionaires. However, almost everyone over sixteen has played it, which
comes to about fifty million people. With the Lotto turning just 0.003% of
adults into millionaires, the odds are stacked against you. Meanwhile,
Camelot has raked in around 50 billion in ticket sales, yet only returned
less than 25 billion in prizes. Hence, collectively, players have lost over
25 billion. Actually, it costs me nothing anymore, because I stopped
playing it years ago!
