OK, I'm looking for 19 people to trial a Euro Millions syndicate with me. I've come up with a 'system' and want to trial it for 10 draws (5 weeks, Tuesdays & Fridays).

The cost will be £22 per share, for the trial, this will get you a 5% share of any winnings. Their are 19 shares available (+1 for me) and you can have up to 4 shares

1 share = £22 (5% share of any winnings)
2 shares = £44 (10% share of any winnings)
3 shares = £66 (15% share of any winnings)
4 shares = £88 (20% share of any winnings)

I'll give this a go :D

From an Inheritance Tax point of view, you may need some sort of syndicate agreement in place, just in case you scoop the jackpot, distribute the winnings and then die in a freak golfing accident :wink:

OK, When I've got a full list I'll pm everyone to confirm their interest (hence the waiting list if anyone changes their mind). When that's done, I'll pm my address for everyone to send cheques too. When the cheques arrive, I'll bank them and then set up the lines. I'm envisaging this taking a couple of weeks (hopefully we'll get started prior to Christmas as they usually have some sort of Bumper Jackpot before Christmas).

I'll also look into drawing up some sort of agreement for you to sign & send back (plus keep a copy for yourselves) This will then give you a legal claim on any winnings.

Should anyone want a multiple share, please state on this thread - otherwise I'll assume its a single share (5% of winnings)

£22 sounds a good sum to lose initially, so make me number 19.

Yes, I'm expecting a Alan Turing type of genious mathematical logarithims programme thereby giving us the secret code to crack the lottery. No pressure, Aknel :wink:

I presume it's based on the Fibonacci theory conjoined with the exact current world population and an algorithmic calculation of the orbital path of Neptune.

in return I'll send you five messages for five consecutive weeks that you haven't won anything

Just pm'd FanADE & murf to confirm their non-interest. I'll then pm the names on the list with further details & the option to withdraw if they choose. I'll need people's email addresses at this point

Then I'll email all concerned with my address & a syndicate document to sign and return (hard copy not by email). This is important as it relates to Inheritance Tax should we by some miracle have a big win.

With Christmas just around the corner, I'm hoping to get set up prior to that. If not then we'll begin in early January & the same numbers will be in play for 11 draws.

After the 11 draws.
Any winnings below £50 per person (£1,000) will remain in the pot and be used in future draws
Any winnings above £1,000.01 will be divided into 20 equal shares & cheques will be sent to all concerned

Any winnings above £1,000.01!!! Don't you mean ALL winnings above £1000.01 (I thought your system was foolproof) :wink:
