So they’re pitching up to work every day when it might just be they can afford to pay off their mortgage or retire. The bad news is none are in the West Midlands area – but there’s no shortage of people out there who don’t realise they are millionaires.
The biggest winner of this group lives in Sevenoaks, Kent. They matched all six numbers in a Set For Life draw in October, which means they have won £10,000 every month for 30 years – worth a cool £3.6 million.
