Tonight(Tuesday) will be our biggest ever lotto draw here in Australia with $90 Million being the guaranteed minimum first prize....
Based on current sales the first prize could top $100 Million...
Not bad for a country with a population of only 21 million people
Here in Aus the entire prize pool is taxed just b4 the draw so this means that the winner gets a check for the whole $90 Million after 14 days TAX FREE...
If more than one winner they split the prize...So if 10 winners then they each would get $9 million....
As of last night(Monday) over $33 million worth of tickets had been sold in NSW alone....
Your chance of winning is one in 45 million....
The reality is that you have more chance of catching the swine flue then you do of winning the $90 million
Minimum spend is $1.10....I spent close to $100 on tickets....
Tickets can be purchased online for about another 5 hours....
