CommentsTim Hanlon‌ Today18:41 BSTWould you go public with your win?We asked Mirror readers if they would tell their huge news to the world if their numbers came up. It's fair to say not too many of you are keen! Over three quarters - 76 per cent - responded 'no way' on our poll. In fact, just 4 per cent picked 'absolutely... I'm rich!'. Around 20 per cent said they would only tell close friends and family members if the won big, and who could blame them. Either way, it's not a bad problem to have!
