A mathematician has revealed how he "beat the system"

[Deleted member 1973]

to win the lottery on 14 separate occasions. Romanian-Australian economist Stefan Mandel

first won the lottery twice in his native Romania, while he was trying to save enough money to take his family out of the then communist country.

you need to calculate the total number of possible combinations - for example, a lottery in which you pick six numbers from one to 40 means there are 3,838,389 combinations.

Then, you need to find the lotteries where the jackpot is three times or more the number of possible combinations.

Then you have to raise enough cash to pay for each combination. So, Mandel did this by rounding up an impressive 2,524 investors to pay for the combinations to win his Virginia lottery.


Then Manel printed out millions of tickets with every combination - which of course isn't legal now, and therefore you would need to buy them all from in store now. Then Mandel delivered the tickets to the authorised lottery dealers before winning the cash.

Stefan Mandel used his winnings to retire on a remote island. What a dream.
