Have you bought your ticket yet?
Tonight’s Euromillions could be the highest amount ever won in Ireland.
The jackpot for tonight’s draw is estimated to be €140 million, with National Lottery spokesperson Miriam Donohoe saying it “rarely rolls so high.”
She said: “She was the first ever Irish jackpot winner, and that scale of a win hasn’t been repeated.
“This year, very early in January, we had a win of €38 million won by a small family syndicate in north County Dublin.”
If it is won in Ireland, it means that it will be the highest amount ever won since Dolores McNamara’s win in 2005. Back then she won €115 million, and it was made into quite an event back in the day.
If you do win, there are a few pretty cool things you could do… and we’ve picked out our top three faves:
Buy a private island
If you won €140 million, you could very well buy your own private island. There’s even one just off the coast of Cork that could be a pretty place to settle down.
Travel to space
It’s possible. For €250,000, you can secure yourself a spot on Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic spaceship, making you officially an astronaut.
Buy a plane
Hey, if you don’t want to head into space, you might as well travel around the world on your own private plane. Just think of all the places you could go to…
