He’s been working the media circuit and got picked up by quite a few shows and news channels recently.

Richard Lustig has moved from lottery book author obscurity to a media hungry wannabe.

Already coined the best ever lottery draw, this Friday’s EuroMillions is going to be an Olympian!

On the night of the opening ceremony of the London 2012 Olympics, EuroMillions will also be giving away an extra 100 x £1 Million prizes in a very special Olympic Millionaire Raffle draw.

He may have won the jackpot, but he was actually lucky on two counts.

Firstly Robert Fidler is $5 Million better off, but he was also lucky not to have shared the jackpot with a bunch of other winners.

It’s always nice to read a good winners story. And WalesOnline have not disappointed, with stories of numerous happy winners (contrary to what some media portrays, lottery winners don’t all go bad!).

The Olympics is costing the UK around £9.3 BILLION, of which £2.2bn has actually been provided by UK Lottery funding.

Whilst that may seem an incredible sum of money, the UK is actually set to benefit economically in excess of £10bn as a result of hosting the games.

Olympic Fever is well underway now, and EuroMillions are enjoying the build up too – they’re celebrating in the UK too with a ‘100 Guaranteed Millionaires’ draw next week.

The 2nd time you claim is a bit more routine said Joseph Sylvester – it’s just another winners photograph and a cheque to bank.

But most people don’t expect to ever be making a 2nd jackpot claim, let alone going back just 3 months later!

It’s not the usual way police departments get some extra funding, but every little helps.

The $1 Million Lotto prize was originally claimed by a 45 year old woman in Oregon.

It was a year ago today that they won the largest ever EuroMillions jackpot at an incredible £161 Million.

But the Weirds from Scotland have promised to keep on sharing in their good fortune by helping others.

Sean Mewherter was arrested yesterday accused of stealing a $1 Million winning lottery ticket.

The announcement came direct from the North Caroline lottery company.

The ticket was claimed by Sean’s wife, Mikala Fields, but officials say Sean’s employer made the original report of the theft.
