Confused About Spanish Lottery Jackpots?

Tuesday December 22, 2009 The biggest lottery in the world, Spain's El Gordo, was drawn today, with some lucky folk in Madrid winning up to three million euros each. But many observers were left a little confused as to exactly how many people won how much. It took me a little time to understand it, but now I can explain.

Anyone who thought that because 78,294 was the winning number then there will be only one one winner is mistaken. Wikipedia, at the time of writing, is also wrong. There were not 180 jackpot-winning tickets, there were 195.

Associated Press, who said there were 1,950 winners were closer to the mark, but this figure is not strictly speaking accurate either. Meanwhile, Spanish newspapers El Pais and El Mundo misleadingly focussed on a single winning ticket (that went to the travel agency Marsans), implying this was the only lucky winner. So how many people ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
