  The grand prize for the game is $1,000 a day for the life of the winner

The $1,000 a day prize is designed to help you dream and get you to buy a $3 ticket, but comes with tax complications as annuities are taxable. A $1,000 a day payout is $365,000 paid out in a year’s time. The $7 Million (shared by winning tickets) lump-sum payout is all TAX FREE. Put it in the bank; you have to pay tax on the interest made on the $7 Million.

With the odds and possible combinations of Daily Grand Lottery (1 in 13,348,188 per $3 play) compared to Lotto 649 (1 in 1 in 13,983,816 per $3 play), with very similar odds and tickets both costing $3, we feel Lotto 649 is a better choice as there is no cap on the prize amounts to be won. If this lottery was to cost $1 or $2 it in my mind would have a greater success. Only time will tell if CANADA plays this lottery. The first winner of this new lottery will be over publicized to get people to buy tickets. Canada needs a country-wide Lotto – with tickets costing $1 with no cap on the jackpot drawn once a week – like the good old days of lotteries in Canada.
It could even be called WIN BIG for a BUCK – and the domain WinBIG.ca is for sale for $100,000 USD plus GST/ HST. WINK WINK NUDGE NUDGE – OLG.
