Massive amount of money for one person ,I dont see why the couldn't do eighty odd people at 2 mil each ?
Being the cynic I am, I think its a capitalist model on keeping huge amounts of cash with just a few. Just MHO TBH.

They'd never keep it a secret.

Not a fan of such large wins, would be far better to have more smaller prizes.

problem is that the people who have that kind of money will not accept them and everyone who walked passed them in the street wants a slice of pie.

Should of kept their head down for a month or two then made out they had one a few hundred grand on another draw, plenty of gangsters out there would chop bits of you off for a small percentage of that win. :(

I saw their pictures in the papers today both of them must be hitting 30 stone each so I reckon the first thing they'll do is Lipo and a couple of new organs or they'll be dead in a couple of years. A win of that size would ruin me and even if I shared it with friends and family it would probably cause even more problems. Best thing I could think of doing with it would be setting up a charity make the money work for itself and be hands on with it's projects I'd enjoy that. I have to start by buying a ticket though which I've yet to do ever. :p

£ 2 a week paul, that's £104 a year
thing is unless you win in the top 2 tiers you get SFA
lad at work got 3 numbers and 2 lucky stars
he got 40 odd quid :(
i see the winners have had to do a runner :(
why camelot made them go public is beyond me
the fella i know who won big said he had scumbags knocking on his door saying "buy me a house"etc etc
if you win you cant tell anyone,especially the missus
:;):
