A lucky person has won \u00a33.6million on the National Lottery<\/a> but only has three weeks to claim the prize.<\/p>\n

They have had quite a lot of time to come forward already after matching five numbers plus the Life Ball in the Set For Life draw on October 24, 2024 for just \u00a31.50.<\/p>\n

The winning numbers from the draw were 2, 11, 29, 37, 45, and Life Ball 6.<\/p>\n

This means that the fortunate person has won the largest possible prize available in the Set For Life draw, with the winner matching all five numbers plus the Life Ball.<\/p>\n

All we know is that this person is from Sevenoaks, Kent, and has until April 22 to win \u00a310,000 every month for the next 30 years.<\/p>\n

The National Lottery has been doing everything in its power to try and find this mystery person.<\/p>\n

It has even resorted to taking over Sevenoaks railway station with special announcements, signs and messages on information boards.<\/p>\n

Patrick Lisoire, from National Lottery operator Allwyn, said: \u2018Sevenoaks station is one of the busiest transport hubs in the district, so it\u2019s possible the lucky ticketholder, or someone they know, is travelling through here.<\/p>\n

\u2018Wouldn\u2019t it be incredible to be able to swap a season ticket for a winning National Lottery ticket.\u2019<\/p>\n

Southeastern\u2019s Sevenoaks Station Manager, Jack Heidrey, added: \u2018It\u2019s exciting to think that one of our commuters could be the winning ticketholder but maybe doesn\u2019t know it yet.\u2019<\/p>\n

Set For Life takes place on Mondays and Thursdays and those who match all five numbers without the Life Ball can still win \u00a310,000 every month for a year, totalling \u00a3120,000.<\/p>\n

It is not always good news<\/a> though for people who win the National Lottery.<\/p>\n

For example, there are some studies that suggest lottery winners in the US are more likely to declare bankruptcy within three to five years compared to the average citizen.<\/p>\n

In the UK Michael Carroll, a bin man who won \u00a39,700,000 on the National Lottery in 2002 \u2013 declared bankruptcy nine years later.<\/p>\n

But it is not all bad news as an Austrian man pocketed the \u00a3200 million EuroMillions jackpot<\/a>\u00a0last week.<\/p>\n

Some Britons saw\u00a0\u00a383,000,000\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0\u00a365,000,000 jackpots<\/a>\u00a0drop into their bank accounts.<\/p>\n
