Left it running in the background whilst trading today
simulated over 17,000 years and got A solid return of 0.25p in the pound

[LeTiss]

That's quite good, I put in my old numbers from years ago. I have just got 5 numbers, unfortunately I'm 972 years old!

[Euler]

I haven't tried it yet, but in the real world lottery I've got five numbers twice!

[LeTiss]

That surprises me.....not that you've won 5 numbers twice, but because I didn't think you'd ever play the lottery, Peter!

[Will Sharpe]

An old professor of mine once said that the lottery is a "punitive tax for the mathematically untalented"...no pun intended

In UK you have a 13M shot to win
Euromillion is 116M shot to win but includes several countrys
In Italy we have a 622M shot to win...10 times our population...In fact no1 ever win but people keep playing it...

I was asked to run a small syndicate, so relented. Odds are terrible, but it would be nice to add the lottery to the list of winning gambles!
