One of the main rules of the lottery is that people can win money in a fair way. It basically depends on good luck. However, the lottery does not only want to make the Dutch participants happy. It also supports several charities, especially in the sports. For example a part of the revenue is meant for the ‘Sail Wise' organization.

Multiple tickets with determined numbers
Another possibility besides a 1/5th or a whole ticket is to buy 10 tickets at once. You pay 30 euros for ten 1/5 tickets and the Jackpot. They have the numbers zero to nine. So you can't choose the final numbers, because they're already determined. The fact that you have all the numbers increases your chance of winning. You pay for 1/5th of the prize of a complete lottery ticket, so all the tickets are 1/5 as well. So in the end it's possible to win 1/5th of the
