The couple who won the 161 mill, their son works in my work.

He phoned in to resign today funnily enough.

Lol, with that much money, he's set for life.

But if i were him, i'd still work to keep social, if you know what i mean?

Just throwing away a career because of money? I think i'd like to have some sort of security :p

You would be stupid not to own a few businesses with that much money to blow, just to keep you occupied.

I think you could find enough to occupy yourself without being involve in businesses.
 
Are they really in hiding?

Can I go back to my "It's not going to be 100% plain sailing as you would imagine" post and say I told you so? :p
 
Folk saying youd be set for life etc. Yes obvioisly thatis true. Youd be set, your children and theirs, for generations. Its a family/generational change of enormous proportions.
 
If I won I'd buy a plot of land in Oz, and build my own race track with an accompanying mansion. Then fill my huge garages with exotic cars to play with on track. Could sell experience days/racing school type things :)

A million to each of my family members.
A million for myself.
A house (not a mansion).
A car (a reasonably priced one).
A holiday.

The rest I'd give to charity. Or perhaps start my own project in Africa, building houses or something.

I've thought about this a lot, and yachts and sports cars have absolutely no appeal to me whatsoever.

A million for yourself? Good on you to be able to take that much and give the rest away.

I can't say the same for myself. I'd have blown 10 mil over the weekend. :cool:

Edit: Fled to Spain? Lol, idiots. Shouldn't have gone public, like I said.

The people writing begging letters to them are absolutely pathetic.

Going public with that amount of money was a poor decision.

Still, despite loathing people who inundate them with begging letters, I've always thought what if they loaned you £2 million which you then placed in high interest savings for a year, then gave them back the £2 million and kept the interest for yourself.

They wouldn't miss the money at all, and would get it back. Obviously, you'd need to be an honest person for it to work but are there any legal issues with doing that?
