    How to win €25 000 000

    Well...easy. Just buy a €2 lottery ticket at eurolotto.com

    http://www.eurolotto.com/lottery/


    I have never played lotto and I will never play it. I would not recommend anybody to play it either.

    Eurolotto is a new thing as to my acknowledge. I just got a bit curios, so I wanted to know more about their ownership structure. Eurolotto is owned by EuroSlots Limited. EuroSlots is owned by the Swedish company Cherryföretagen AB (Cherry). This is information that are available at their homepage.

    Cherry have strong connections to Betsson and of course Cherry Casino and Play Cherry. Also to the Norwegian "Norgesautomaten", the Swedish "Sverigeautomaten" and the Danish "Danmarksautomaten". As many of you probably know, Betsson was earlier named Cherry. NetEnt was also a part of Cherry, before they was separated.

    I did some more searches and the biggest shareholder in Cherry, is also the biggest shareholder in Net Entertainment (NetEnt). He is also a board member in Cherry.

    Some of the ownership structures in the gambling industry is really confusing. A company like Cherry has multiple holdings companies witch again owns multiply operation companies.

    The thing I'm a bit concerned about, is when casino providers are owned by companies that also owns the casinos. I would rather see that the providers of games was independent of the casino. Just my opinion.

    Lot of inbreeding in the gambling industry.

    Anyway...Who who want to play some lotto ?

    Made some quick RTP calculations - should I be correct, around 73.33% (but actually worse since the jackpot is paid as an annuity, should you consider the "true" cash value of the €25M JP, that would be more likely to be around ~55%)

    I'd rather play EuroMillions than this

    The Jackpot is paid over 30 years.

    If I follow the CPI (consumer price index) for Norway over the last 30 years, then 100,- 2010 Norwegian Kroner is the same as 29,- 1980 Norwegian Kroner.

    So yes, you are correct. The real value of the JP is much less because of the inflation. If we assume a similar development


    (if they do not regulate for inflation)

    Oh...I don`t want to be greedy, so 9-10 Cashalot jackpots would have been enough for me

    Why enter

    According to my emails I regularly win lottos and prize draws I didn't even no I entered - this week I have appx 36million pounds in unclaimed prizes.

    I would make the claims except I am to busy filing out the forms for all the money I am told I have inherited
    cheers

    lol.... Don't forget that in order to claim you must pay your agent and his lawyer fees up-front. Once you have gotten the money, buy a cheap licence where Gaming Regulation is at a MINIMUM (Or non-existant) and open up your own Clip Joint.
