EVER WONDERED WHO ARE THE LUCKIEST PEOPLE IN THE UK?

You might immediately think to celebrities or reality stars who’ve earned their fortune through doing pretty much nothing and having their lives exposed to the limelight. Well maybe, but even the most famous of celebrities didn’t receive a massive £161 million from a simple £2 investment.In July 2011, Colin and Christine Weir became Europe’s biggest lottery winners as they netted a huge £161 million lottery jackpot after buying a £2 EuroMillions ticket. The couple, from Largs in Ayrshire, Scotland, have been married for 30 years and lived a quiet life in a pleasant seaside town in Scotland and had two children together. Overnight, thanks to their EuroMillions win, they became almost as rich as David and Victoria Beckham.The huge £161 million lottery jackpot was the largest ever offered by the EuroMillions lottery, and, two years later, has still not been beaten, in the UK or abroad. After the EuroMillions draw, Mr. and Mrs. Weir found that they would earn £5 million per year on the interest from their winnings alone, which equates to £10 every minute, just for doing nothing. Even the most pointless of reality TV stars don’t earn that much!Two years later, where are the UK’s luckiest residents? After several big changes over the last couple of years, the lottery winners can still be found in Largs, but they’ve swapped their £180,000 town house for an £850,000 mansion, complete with swimming pool and Jacuzzi. Who can envy them a bit of luxury for themselves though, as the lucky EuroMillions lottery players have donated millions of pounds to worthy causes in Scotland, including needy individuals, their local community and even the Scottish National Party.Most notably though, in February 2013 the Weirs set up their own charity fund, accepting applications from Scottish groups, individuals or other charities providing services across Scotland, using their EuroMillions lottery winnings to share their good luck with the rest of the country and provide support where they can. A well-adjusted way of occupying a place on the Sunday Times Rich List, to say the least!Next one on the Rich List could be you!
