I know the probability of winning the national lottery (6 numbers out of 49) has been quoted at 14 million : 1, I'd imagine the odds of winning the Euromillions aren't too good either.
For comparisons sake, your odds of being killed in a car crash are 10,000 : 1.
By rights, you should die 140 times before winning the lottery, if odds were fair and, well, not a lottery.

You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
