&lt;p&gt;I must confess that my 30 pounds is paid to keep this site alive. Never have I thought that I would pay 30 pounds to be a gold member for the pure reason of it being 12 raffle tickets. If you are only here for that then you might have better luck gambling elsewhere. The prize draw should be treated as a pure bonus and a bit of fun, not the reason to subscribe to Beoworld. This site has so much more to offer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My 2c worth&lt;/p&gt;
