Awannabe millionaire has quit his home and jobs to live under a bridge for TEN YEARS vowing he will not leave until he has cracked how to win the lottery.

Wang Chengzhou believes living in total solitude will help him figure out the "secret" formula behind picking the winning numbers.

The 49-year-old has made his home under a road bridge in Chongqing, China, where he spends his days researching the maths.

He is so dedicated to his cause he has even given up his part time jobs at the post office and as a cleaner, according to media reports.

Wang had previously worked as a builder at a construction site in Xian, Shaanxi province, but suffered a thigh fracture.

After he recovered from the injury in 2008 he moved to his bizarre new home, reports the South China Morning Post.

"I spend about £200 (about N96,200) a month buying lottery tickets.”

He now plans to write books telling others how they can get lucky - even though he hasn't won himself.

A post office official confirmed Wang had worked there for the past two years, but had recently quit.

“I know he is buying and researching about lotteries, but I never heard he won once,” he said.
