13 MILLION EUROS UNCLAIMED! Who Threw the Money in the Trash? You Only Have 3 Days Left!

Bro, grab your lottery ticket and check it, because maybe YOU'RE the idiot who forgot about 13 million euros! No joke! In the Super Lotto draw on April 24, organized by the French lottery for 50 years, a huge prize dropped, but the winner... shut up, they didn't show up! The deadline is June 22, at 11:59 PM, after which the money turns to dust and goes back into the game. The ticket was bought at a physical point, at a bar or newsstand in the Orne department, not online. The combination: 2, 12, 16, 20, 26, plus the complementary number 2. Lottery reps made a public appeal, saying it's an unusual situation - meaning some fool stuffed the ticket in a drawer and forgot about it. Nobody ever forgot anything for me, but to forget 13 million euros... you're a lost cause.

Back home, with us Romanians, things are calmer, but people still win. In Târgu Jiu, someone won 160,155 lei at Loto 5/40, that's a bit over 30,000 euros - enough to buy a 2008 BMW like mine, but without installments. In Iași, another person hit 242,395 lei at Noroc. Over there, some still have money to invest, not like in Vaslui, where unemployment is at an all-time high and people are just waiting for child allowance. And a 28-year-old woman from Brașov came on Tuesday to claim her 3.5 million lei Joker prize - over 680,000 euros. She's been playing for about three years, at Joker, Lotto 6/49, Lotto 5/40. Good for her, may she have health! But I say: why not me? With my 2008 BMW that acts up when starting, I would have known how to spend the money: a new Audi, an all-inclusive vacation in Antalya, and I would have bought Mioara a real Rolex, not the fake one I have now.

Anyway, bro, what are you waiting for? You have three days! Go to the bar where you bought your ticket, pull it out from the bottom of the drawer, check the numbers. If you're the one, please give me a sign - maybe you'll invite me for a beer at Fane's terrace. But if not, relax, because the money is going back to the lottery anyway, not to you. That's how it is in Romania: others win, we watch.
