Health Lottery

How to play the Health Lottery for best chance at winning?

Comments

  • The best way to win the health lottery is to get regular exercise, eat a healthy diet, don't smoke, don't get overweight.
  • Best chance of winning? Play more lines. Personally I'd take all the money you'd play on the Health Lottery over the course of a year and stick it into Premium Bonds if you enjoy lotteries. That way at least you're not loosing money, besides the small amount of interest you'd get on it if you stuck it in a bank.
  • Don't pay by direct debit, make sure your e-mail address is correct and sign up for e-mail offers.
    I get offers such as spend £8 get £5 bonus or spend at least £3 and get 60% bonus.
    But you need to read the bonus offers carefully to make sure that you don't lose out on them.
  • The chance of winning is over 2 million to 1.
    So statistically you will not win in your lifetime and the best way to "win" would be to not play at all.

    Investing or saving the £1 a week over 60 years with an assumed return of 4% will see you have over £12,000 ... not big numbers, but better than the possible negative £3000 you could have if you play and lose every week.
  • I played it once. Didn't win so gave up.
