super22k Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 She should be made to pay the million pounds back to the British taxpayer who have paid for her health care through the National health service for years.All for free.She and thousands of Thais in Britain who have been getting one sort of a benefit or another all for free should be made to pay the benefits back if they get " in the money."

talisman01 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 For the UK lottery the only rule for winners is that they must be over 16 years of age so anyone of any nationality can be a winner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert888d Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 A sudden win doesn't usually bring long term happiness.....! What a meagre amount you can win on the Thai lottery.. I wonder just where all that ticket money goes or to whom it goes ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim walker Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Congratulations and well done on your wonderful win I think her smile says it all, spend wisely and that money could last a life time I hope she doesn’t blow it all in the bookies again, I have noticed in Aberdeen many of the Thai ladies like to spend in the casino of an evening and are a bit gambling mad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I'm happy for her, I hope her family don't suck it away in an instant. Too right mate.Good on her. I was scrolling down the replies to see if there might be anyone to give her the thumbs up and possibly congratulate her, took a while before anyone did, but the last sentence "I hope her family...." wasn't really neccessary as it it up to her and her family if she gives them any of the winnings, to do whatever they want with the money. My reply is, concratulations to you Ms. Edited September 12, 2014 by KamalaRider 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carter1882 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I won the Thai lottery not once but twice. My wives and children from both my marriages here are wonderful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super22k Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 There seems to be some misunderstanding. If someone posts a message on ThaiVisa that you dont agree with, it does not mean that person is stupid or a <deleted> .It simply means that they have a different opinion to you. It is my opinion that the thousands of Thai people getting all the free handouts in Britain should be made to pay if they become rich. After all it is me a British taxpayer who is supplying them with the handouts.I am not stupid.It is my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katoom Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 You can buy lottery tickets while overseas here; thelotter.com It is a little more expensive and I am not sure you get to be in the raffle along with the lottery or euro millions draw but as they say, you have to be in it to win it. Good luck to the girl and I hope she is not now totally addicted to gambling. It is a real problem for Asian countries. Lad brooks I hope will give her good advice that she follows.

Nuddy Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Good luck to her. I notice the article said she won it through her bookie. Not being from UK, I wonder is bookie just a term for a seller of tickets, or does it really mean a bookmaker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FiestyFarang Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 (edited) She will also share her new fortune with her mother, who still lives in Thailand. What a surprise...NOT! I think your comment is cynical the reality is that there are many single Mother's in Thailand that receive little or no financial help from the government and their children, when they grow up have the intelligence to realise what their mother provided for them when they were small. In Western countries the State pay for a place to live, food etc. In the UK this is a professional business for some Immigrants who are quite happy to live off the UK benefit system with no shame or intention to work. The UK government is so out of touch with reality it is astonishing. I am British and part of the reason I left was that I was so fed up with a great system being abused and I was paying 40% tax so much going to lazy immigrants but sadly people like you still think you are in the West.

thhMan Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 The Thai "student" I know, win with me every day, well, almost every day....

Popular Post kennypowers Posted September 12, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2014 What a bunch of miseries. Personally I'm happy for her, I hope her family don't suck it away in an instant. I doubt her family is living in a shack in Nakhon Nowhere waiting for handouts. Considering they sent her overseas to study in Chester, the likelihood is they have more than enough money to live a good life in Thailand. She certainly won't be trawling Thaivisa looking for a sugar daddy sponsor, that's for sure. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as far as I'm aware you HAVE to be IN the UK to claim the prize money.I would also do a Google search on "thelotter.com" the results are eye opening!
