Chance for South Africans to size up in upcoming EuroMillions Superdraw

This time around, the jackpot has been set at a whopping 130 million euros. That’s well over R2 billion for South Africans. It’s a huge sum anywhere in the world, but particularly massive in rands.

The date for the next EuroMillions Superdraw has been revealed. It’s going to happen on Friday, 5th  February 2021 – and could be a great opportunity for South Africans countrywide to continue the new year on a positive note. From Hermanus and Plettenberg Bay on the coast to Paarl and Pretoria inland, the EuroMillions Superdraw is actually available to all South Africans countrywide. Certain providers have made this possible, so if you reside in the south you don’t have to envy those who are able to enter the draw in the northern hemisphere. This time around, the jackpot has been set at a whopping 130 million euros. That’s well over R2 billion for South Africans. It’s a huge sum anywhere in the world, but particularly massive in rands. You might have heard your England-based friends refer to them as Super Jackpots or your mates in Ireland call it Megadraws, but the EuroMillions Superdraw is clearly an attractive prospect no matter what name it goes by. It guarantees enormous jackpots, even if the top prize was not won in the previous draw. It happens within the same rules as normal draws, but the hefty size of the prize in the Superdraw is saved for this big occasion. Back in December 2020, which isn’t that long ago, the jackpot cap was actually increased by €10 million – from €200 million to €210 million. The prize this time is obviously smaller than that gigantic cap, but certainly still a resounding amount. Previous EuroMillions results show that the last time the Superdraw happened was on 20 November 2020. On the day, the jackpot rolled over and eventually reached the cap two weeks later. It stayed that way for two more draws. Eventually, a lucky recipient in France won the precious prize. The last time the Superdraw was won on the actual night, though, without a rollover, was in September 2020. On that occasion, someone from Valladolid in Spain – who chose to stay anonymous – won the €130 million on offer. In 2019 and 2018, rollovers were required before producing winners. This two-year expanse shows just how much the prize can grow and makes the bucks all the more mega. If you won this sort of cash, you’d pretty much be injected right up there into the list of South Africa’s richest people. IN 2020, by example media and business magnet Koos Bekker had a net worth of around R2 billion. Mining mogul Patrice Mosepe weighed in with R1.4 billion that same year. When you leave the millions category and enter the billions bracket, it’s evident that that numbers in that tier become further and fewer between and the names become more renowned. In closing, it’s well worth noting that February is hot property in terms of when the Superdraw happens. Don’t wait for April or May, when traditionally the draw hardly happens. It also hasn’t happened at all in January or August. Research shows that February is among the top three months when the Superdraw happens. Opportunity for you to take advantage of this month, indeed, awaits.
