The last EuroMillions Superdraw dropped a jaw-dropping €250 million (£209 million) jackpot — and someone out there is now officially living their best life.

💸 The Biggest UK EuroMillions Wins (So Far…)

🥉 £177 Million – December 2024

Still fresh in our minds — a lucky Brit claimed this one just before the holidays.

🥇 £195.7 Million – July 2022

An anonymous UK player took this monster prize and vanished into the sunset. Quiet wealth, big energy.

🥈 £184.3 Million – May 2022

Joe and Jess Thwaite from Gloucester shared their win with the world — and showed us dreams can be real.

🎯 £170.2 Million – October 2019

Another anonymous win, another life changed overnight. All numbers matched. Boom.

🎡 £148.6 Million – August 2012

Adrian and Gillian Bayford scooped this huge sum — and later tried launching a theme park. Big win, big dreams.

💑 £161 Million – July 2011

Colin and Chris Weir, from Scotland, used their winnings to give back in a massive way.

What to do if you win the jackpot

01.10.22 (updated 09.12.22) Published by

We have all fantasised about winning the lottery jackpot. Maybe you’ve even dreamed about what you’d do with all that money or how it would feel to become a millionaire overnight. What happens if your dreams come true? What should you do if you win the jackpot?

Here at Lotto Social, we have a bird’s eye view of what happens to jackpot winners, and we want to help you avoid making the big mistakes should your numbers come up. So here is your complete guide to show you precisely what you need to do after winning big.

Accept the prize anonymously if you win the jackpot

When you win, there will be pressure to go public. Everyone from the Daily Mail to your local paper will be interested in your story. If you decide you want to go public this is a personal choice, but as a default we suggest staying private. 

But if you do decide to go public, it’s important to consider both the pros and cons. Your friends, family as well as strangers will be aware of your win.

Set yourself boundaries if you win

It may be difficult to hide your win even if you decide to stay private. If you decide you want to give. It’s important to sit down and think about who you want to give money to before this happens and how much to give. Be preemptive. Tell the people you will give them money; however, you are not a piggy bank. Practice telling people no. Above all, remember this – it is YOUR money.

Speak to a financial advisor

You just won the jackpot; of course, you will want to splurge! And you should, but before that we suggest speaking to a financial advisor. They can help you figure out how to make your money last for the long-term, not just now. If you want to invest your winnings, this can be a tricky and complex business if you’ve never done it before. This is where a financial advisor will be able to help and direct you to the right people. 

But before you can even think about these, you need to win! Skyrocket your chances of winning by making a FREE LottoSocial account today. Get involves in a lottery syndicate or take advantage of our 10 lines for £1 offer.

Landmarks That Wouldn’t Exist Without The Lottery

Landmarks That Wouldn’t Exist Without The Lottery

26.07.22 (updated 09.12.22) Published by

Did you know that the lottery does more than make people rich? It helps charity projects to grow from an idea to reality. It also has created some very well-known landmarks that would not be here today without the lottery. 

Find out which global landmarks have benefited from the worldwide lottery below. Some may surprise you! 

The Lottery and The Statue of Liberty

The Statue of Liberty is one of the biggest monuments in the modern world. Surprisingly, over four million tourists arrive there each year, making it one of the top 50 tourist destinations on the planet. It isn’t easy to assume that the monument wouldn’t be here without lottery cash.

How The Lottery helped build the statue of Liberty

 

The endeavour to construct the enormous statue was exceedingly costly and hampered by logistical issues. The Statue of Liberty was built in two stages: the statue itself in France, then the foundations in America. The French began fundraising in 1875, but by 1880, the planned cost of the plan had more than doubled, reaching one million francs! Fearing they as a country that couldn’t keep its commitments, the French urgently launched new fundraising drives, including presenting the statue’s head at the Universal Exhibition in Paris.

Developing a National Lottery salvaged the project and allowed it to travel to the United States. The French lottery offered expensive paintings and other fine art pieces as rewards. The cost of constructing the base equals that of the stunning landmark itself.

 

London’s Millennium Bridge

How The Lottery helped build London’s millennium bridge

 

The iconic Millennium Bridge in London was built with a spectacular steel art design to commemorate the year 2000. The Heritage Lottery Fund, part of the National Lottery, provided funding for the project. Unfortunately, the bridge became infamous when it opened because it kept bouncing about, earning it the moniker “Wobbly Bridge” for a while. Thankfully, it was re-engineered to ensure structural stability and is now a modern-era London monument worth a visit.

 

 

 

The Lottery and the Colosseum of Rome

The Colosseum is a spectacular landmark that has remained one of the New Seven Wonders of the World because of this financing. Indeed, Augustus, the Roman Emperor, is known to have instituted a lottery to acquire money from the “plebeians” following costly civil wars: money that was documented in building new roads and the Colosseum.

How The Lottery helped to build the Colosseum

 

With an estimated 18 million euro financial injection, Italy’s ailing economy sent taxes and lottery revenue back towards the Colosseum to save the ancient structure from crumbling.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Landmarks of Colonial America

Much of New World America was created using lottery money. The Jamestown Colony, the first English colony in the Americas, was funded by one set by King James I. A Grand National Lottery was used to renew most of Washington, D.C., in 1823. However, there was one minor setback: when the winner went to claim the $100.000 jackpot, the organisers fled with the money, forcing the Federal Government to pay the reward.

How The Lottery helped to build American landmarks

Thanks to lottery financing, thousands of modern and historical sites throughout the world exist today. When you play games like the Lotto, you may not only be in with a chance of becoming a millionaire, but you may also be helping long-term historical initiatives.

There you have it. Thanks to past and present players, you are all helping to create a legacy for generations to come. So next time you have a losing ticket, try not to be too downhearted. Instead, think of the great causes you are helping!

Seven things to buy if you win the EuroMillions

7 Things you’d buy if you won the EuroMillions

26.07.22 (updated 09.12.22) Published by

The EuroMillions is a game that will make you incredibly wealthy, and you can play for the chance to live the life usually reserved for the rich and famous. We’ve included the top things that you should definitely do if you win the EuroMillions.

1) Keep Quiet when you win the EuroMillions

When you win the EuroMillions keep things top secret

 

We know this isn’t something you can buy, but we need to throw it in here! Don’t shout it from the rooftops, and don’t even post it on Facebook.

This may be the most challenging thing you could do, but believe us when we say that money will bring out the quirky and unique, as well as every penny-pincher who thinks they’ve done you a favour and all the long-lost family members who feel entitled. Tell only your partner, your accountant, and your financial adviser.

Remember, this is just our advice. Ultimately what you choose to do is up to you!

 

 

2) Set Money Aside for Retirement when you win the EuroMillions

When you win the EuroMillions plan for retirement

 

If you recently won the EuroMillions, your retirement may begin today. Nonetheless, it is critical that you save money for your retirement years. The younger you are, the more savings you will need. From this vantage point, spending your lottery winnings should be viewed as a marathon rather than a sprint.

Work with your financial advisor to determine how much money you should save for retirement. The amount will be determined partly by the lifestyle you choose to maintain. Other considerations include medical expenses, the number of family members you support, and inflation. They will also assist you in determining the appropriate place for your retirement funds, such as an Individual Retirement Account (IRA), mutual fund, or other investment vehicles.

 

3) Select Low-Risk Investments with your EuroMillions Winnings

When you win the EuroMillions invest your winnings

 

 

After you’ve paid off your debts and saved for retirement, it’s time to relax. This is the time when you can have some fun. You deserve to purchase your ideal home or go on your dream trip.

Your financial adviser can assist you in developing an appropriate budget for “fun.”

 

 

 

 

4) Make a Difference in the Community with your EuroMillions winnings

When you win the EuroMillions donate to charity

 

Financial independence also implies the ability to pay it forward. Many lottery winners have donated to charities and other non-profit organisations. Donate to a cause you care about, such as your local church, a compassionate animal shelter, or another organisation, to have a good social influence.

Philanthropy has its own set of advantages. Aside from the positive emotions, charity donating has tax advantages. According to SmartAsset, you can qualify by gifting up to $15,000 (£13,123.71) per individual recipient for a lifetime total of $11.58 million (£10.2 million).

 

 

5) A Second Home

When you win the EuroMillions buy a second home

 

After you’ve had some rest, relaxation, and maybe a tan, it’s time to start looking for your own home away from home. What tickles your fancy? You can do it if you want to be a fly fisherman, an amateur equestrienne, or a winery.

Whatever desires you have in your wildest dreams, now is the moment to make them come true. And who says you have to limit yourself to just one vacation home? You could buy a pied-à-terre in every city on the planet.

 

 

 

6) Create a Scholarship in Your Honour

When you win the EuroMillions create a scholarship in your name

 

With luck like yours, it’s excellent to give back to the world. Why not establish a scholarship in your honour at your previous institution or university?

You will be able to impact the lives of many students this way. Create your own charity to support the causes that are important to you.

 

 

 

 

7) A Private Chef

When you win the EuroMillions hire a private chef

 

Your days of labouring in the kitchen are over. Instead, hire a personal chef to prepare all of your meals. All you have to do is ask for Italian, a Sunday roast, or a super-healthy green juice. And the best thing is you won’t even have to clean up afterwards.

Now that we have helped identify some of the many things to buy, all we can do now is wish you the best for the EuroMillions!

If you didn’t know already, we offer a membership with 10 EuroMillions lines every week, which means you never miss a jackpot! We also place you in a syndicate of up to 49 players, increasing your chances of winning. Good luck!
