The National Lottery is a lie

by Stuart 22. February 2010 18:40

I don’t do the national lottery.  I used to say it was a tax on the stupid but now I think the whole thing is just a con.  I think it’s been going for about 15 years so that means just the main lottery should have created at least 780 millionaires if it creates one a week.

Now, I believe there is now more than on draw a week so I think there should be about 1000 people who have won a million.

I must know directly or through a 3 levels of contact a lot of people.

Lets say I know 100 people and each one of those knows another 100 and each one of them knows another 100.  That’s 1,000,000 people or a million to you.  Now there are only about 60 million people in the UK.  So I should know someone who knows someone who knows someone who’s won the lottery -  if you know what I mean.

But I don’t.

Why not?  Well its a con made up by them and the people they wheel out are actors or maybe once a year or so they actually let a real person win.

Other than that – must be a fix.  Lets face it – there’s some serious money involved so its bound to be.

What's this all about?

Not the top gear website but one nothing like it. 

Been through a few "what this is" and now settled on my (Stuart McLean's) general blog - mainly about cycling but occasionally anything else chucked in.

I also occasionally write some technical stuff which you can find here.

You can follow me on twitter @stuartm9999.

I record most of my bike rides on runkeeper so you can see them here if you're really bored!
