The text

Lotteries

The first recorded lotteries date back to 187 BC. They were held in China to fund major government projects like the Great Wall of China. The first European lotteries were held during the Roman Empire, mainly at dinner parties, where guests were given presents. The first lottery offering tickets for sale was the lottery organised by Roman Emperor Augustus. The funds were used for repairs in the City of Rome.

The first recorded lotteries to offer tickets for sale with prizes in the form of money were held in the modernday Netherlands in the 15th century. Various towns held public lotteries to raise money for town fortifications (укрепления) and to help the poor. The English word lottery comes from the Dutch noun “lot” meaning “fate” (судьба ).

Nowadays lotteries are popular in many countries. For example, Americans spend more on the lottery than any other form of entertainment. In 2014 they spent 70.1 billion dollars on lottery tickets, while only 63 billion dollars was spent on sports tickets, books, video games, movie tickets, and recorded music combined.

The largest jackpot win with one ticket was $590.5 million in America’s Powerball, won by Gloria MacKenzie, Florida in 2013. The largest unclaimed prize was from the Euro Millions draw (розыгрыш) in 2012. The ticket was worth £63,837,543. The average lottery winner buys new cars for either themselves or friends and family.

After winning the lottery, one of the first things most lottery winners do is take a break from the rat race and go on holiday! According to the survey results, 75% of lotto winners upgrade their apartments to more spacious private homes, while 24% buy property (недвижимость) abroad. Even though a multi-million dollar lotto win gives people financial independence, many choose to continue working. According to statistics, 15% of lottery winners find a better job, while 45% open their own businesses.

On the downside, many winners lose their money because they spend it on expensive things they can’t afford or because they are too generous and give away their money to relatives and friends. In spite of their generosity, 90% of lottery winners lose friends. This is really just due to the fact that you cannot please everyone. Almost half of all online lottery winners lose every single cent within 5 years of the event. So even if you win a lottery, you should deal with your money wisely.
