Winning the lottery, it could be you.
In reality, the odds of clinching a top prize in either the Lotto or the Euromillions jackpots are very, very long. But the chances of winning a smaller prize, as you'd expect, are not that daunting.
To win any money in the National Lottery, you have to match at least three numbers. The chances of doing that are one in 97. To win the jackpot, you must match six numbers, at odds longer than one in 45 million.
