Sometimes I play it, but it seems my numbers are really rare - even when I don't play, there aren't even two numbers from my set of five drawn. While the 2-10 double was drawn last time in June 2019. With only 45 combinations possible it's quite rare, isn't it?

According to Wikipedia, the Eurojackpot's probability is 1 in 95 million.

Yes, because it's 5 of 50 + 2 of 10. My 45 combinations says about the second part only and that's (my numbes - 2,10) what hasn't happened since June 2019.

Oh well, good for you to not win a jackpot like that :p You do know a huge part of people who win those kind of insane amounts end up bankrupt and depressed and basically without any sort of friend or maybe one or two decent family members left since everyone will want something from you and look at you like you're an asshole if you don't give them 5 million just because :p

I think this acts as good proof that cats are actually man’s best friend and not dogs.

I have an ability of not spending much money, even if I do have some more. And my second ability of keeping my financial cases in secret. I wouldn't need to show in any way, that I have money. I'd still live with my parents in a 50 m2, maybe I'd buy myself something more interesting, which would be "for my eyes only" (like... an Olympic torch or something which I could have got as a gift from a friend). Maybe I'd sponsor some sport anonymously. And I'd simply have it, use it, when I need, I wouldn't worry about being only a "pro bono" journalist instead of searching for a paid journalistic jobs so intensively.

I think I have quite a plan for a big amount of money and a head cold enough not to spend it too quickly (especially that I'm from a city which is known in the whole Poland from our greediness and I'm quite a representative - I prefer to walk 2,5 km to a train station and get to city centre for 5,80 PLN instead of spending 6,00 PLN to a route from my place to cities first bigger "transfer point" and then spend about 3 PLN more to get to the city centre - these are not big money, but I don't like spending more money, when I can spend less, no matter on the sum. (Doesn't refer to sport or tourist souvenirs.)

Those people dressing for winter when asked to dress for -5 degrees Celsius :rofl: 

 

That's when I start figuring out a time 'somewhere in the next weeks' to go up to the attic and maybe find my autumn clothes.

    • that happened to so many people. Khomeini at the time of revolution had probably something like 90% support. maybe even more (which I still can't understand how and why)   he was supposed to be someone like Pope, stay in the holy city of Qom and do not interfere with the government.  of course that didn't happen and some people slowly started to realize the catastrophe. but make no mistake Khomeini was still extremely popular until his death.   there is a famous thing about Khomeini, when he landed in Iran with Air France 10 days before the revolution, lots of high profile people (exiled by Shah's regime) accompanied him inside the plane. none of them are with the regime anymore. they are either killed by MEK terrorists, killed or jailed by Khomeini himself or fled the country later. 
    • Hungary is simply much better than Italy (it is clear that Orban has been investing much in sports, because they are strong despite their small population) – we haven't beaten them in 20 years or more. A window of opportunity arose when Hungary unexpectedly lost to Slovakia, and we could have advanced, but we didn't capitalize on it. Because of the loss to Slovakia, Hungary won't finish first. However, Italy certainly didn't deserve to advance, since they lost to both Hungary and Slovakia. Our form was simply poor and our best player- Fantin, was out with injured. However, that doesn't change the fact that with seven or eight Canadian players of Fortino caliber, we should have played much better here.
    • Fantin's injury didn't help, but the fact that the Canadian head coach didn't even show up at the tournament shows certain priorities – only the Olympics were important, and the project will soon be over. I`, sure that half of our Canadian players won't be playing for the Italian national team in a next year. France will qualify, because I don't believe they won't beat Slovakia tomorrow. Congratulations to France for having a long-term vision for this sport, not just for a single home event.
    • 2-3 against Hungary. Big disappointment. Unfortunately, it seems our good form was only to the Olympics and no at the World Championships were crucial for us. We had a big chance against France, because I expected a loss against Hungary. It's also fair to say that Hungary and France, relying primarily on their own athletes and have been better than Italy for many years and even bringing in 7-8 North American athletes didn't help us. Unfortunately, despite advancing to the top 8 for the Olympics, the Italian project will last even shorter than China, as they at least advanced to the elite group. In a year, I suspect we'll be fighting relegation against the Netherlands. In reality, that 8th place at the Olympics means nothing anymore, and in a 1 month, no one will remember it. Even the young girls from Slovakia played better here than us, where there isn't even a single Canadian player. If we finish in 4th place, it will be only 2 positions better than in 2019 - when we had a very weak team.
    • SkiMo legend  Arno Lietha announced his retirement.
    • I watched some German TV documentary about Iranian anti-Pahlavi dissidents who supported his overthrow and backed Khomeini only to find out he doesn't want them either and they stayed in exile in France & Germany 
    • Kicked from this restaurant in vietnam, good english pronounciation    
    • Because they didn't release all the tickets in the first draw
    • no one booed him , why you lie     
    • A miracle just happen: a Dutch judoka won a medal, even gold. Joanne van Lieshout (already World Champion in 2024) had some difficult years, but is back now. Very promising, however she's our only judoka at world level.
