As the Christmas lottery draw approaches, many people are collecting tenths to try their luck this December 22. This year, state lotteries and betting will distribute a total of 2,772 million euros in price, including the desired Fatrewarded with 400,000 euros for every tenth winner. However, not everyone gets carried away by this game, as happens to the billionaire businessman. Jose Eliasowner of the La Sirena supermarket and founder of Audax Renovables.
On his podcast Find your lifeElías revealed that he had never played the lottery and explained the reasons that led him to stay in this position. “Lottery? I have never bought a lottery” he said.
In his opinion, he states: “I do not agree with the way the lottery is advertised, I do not agree with the way commissions are distributed with lotteries. I think it’s a state enterprise motherfucker and that lotteries are an extremely mistreated group,” he said.
Elias’ comment on scarcity lottery commissions This is precisely one of the demands that this group has been calling for for years. Recently this debate has resumed, which also involves increasing the price of the Christmas Lottery ticket. from 20 to 25 euros and also increase the amount of grand prizes. And for every tenth of Christmas they sell in their lottery administrations, only earn 4.5%which is equivalent to 90 euro cents.
For this reason, the businessman believes that “if it were better distributed, I would do the same for lotteriesmore than through the lottery”, he emphasizes, because the amount of prizes is increasingly lower compared to the increase in the cost of living.
“Lately, you have four female dogs and it’s also like the deception of the centuryNo? You get four female dogs and they take half of them,” he said.
In reality, the Treasury does not keep half the price, but rather 20% of these quantities that exceed 40,000 euros. Prices below this amount are exempt from taxes, as indicated by the Tax Agency on its website.
Despite the Treasury’s restraint, the businessman remains skeptical of this type of raffle. “There comes a time when you say to yourself: why are you going to play? I go to bingo and I have better chances touch something,” he concludes.
