Off Topic where would you begin?

I honestly don[t know

I wouldn't know where to start

Think i'd probably take 500k and just go and chill for a few months, live in the best hotels, and getaway


Anyone who mentions investing in footballl needs shooting.


Don't think i'd buy a massive house, a waste.

A nanny, and professional English teacher, bring the bairn over.

An Aston , cos i love them.

No boats, helicopters for me

Boring as **** really.

 

I’d probably just throw it in the pile with the rest.

 

I'd keep myself warm with it when the gas runs out. Like Pablo Escobar did.

 

Buy my own island in the Caribbean somewhere.

I'd also pay for Harry Winks to have some footballing lessons in how to pass the ball forward.

 

That level of dosh comes with a social responsibility imo. It’s not like winning a few £M that’ll remove money worries for you and your close family for the rest of your lives, if you’re sensible.

It’s a serious amount of genuine wealth and with it should come a desire to do some good with it, and put something back into society in whatever form. Plenty would struggle with that level of wealth imho.

 

Yeah if I won £170m, I would stick £100m into a savings account and live off the interest, then with the other £70m, i'd spend around £10m of it on a house for me, one for my parents, brother, in-laws, my brother in law (I guess) and a few select close friends. Then the other £60m, I would probably donate to various local charities in Milton Keynes. Only local, mind, I wouldnt want any of my money going anywhere near that **** hole of a capital of ours, it has enough money.

Cancer research is probably the only international charity I would consider donating to.
I would probably build more homeless shelters in MK, seeing as homelessness has sky rocketed in the last decade, thanks to Tory Austerity. Or some sort of program to help homeless people sort themselves out, given them a residence and access to toilet facilities so they can try find a job.

 

Yeah I like that, the best charities work by the ‘give a man a fish’ mentality, and sustainable change is what it’s all about imo. Helping people help themselves in the long term, after solving their initial needs.

The knowledge that you’d helped people turn their lives around and that you’d made a genuine positive difference would be priceless imo, and worth infinitely more than the meaningless baubles and trinkets that come with vast wealth.

 

I'm totally with Tobes but in my spare time I'm having Hot tub parties with hookers and blowing my money like a G

Also would use it to mix with the celebs and get one up the duff for jokes

 

You’d end up like that pikey who had the dirt track in his back garden and ended up skint and on the bins mate.

 

You could do that without blowing the principal capital sum.
Stick £100m in a high interest savings account, make one withdrawal per year and your annual interest would be around £5m, which is about £400,000 a month.
I could quite happily life off that, whilst using the other £70m for entrepeneurial, business and charity related things.

 

So you see, you can help the homeless AND sniff coke of a hookers tits

 

I’d get a brand new 60 tonne excavator and move to North Wales.

 

I'm not too sure what I would do exactly but I wouldn't fancy my chances of living much longer than a few years

 

Or if it is anything like other types of winnings when you gamble you will be annoyed you didn't win more so head to Vegas and try and double it

 

I would certainly take £1m to Vegas, just to have the ****ing long weekend of my life, would have to be done!
Stay at one of those super fancy formerly mafia run hotels where the rat pack used to perform, get one of those penthouse suites with a hot tub jacuzzi on the balcony, order a couple of super expensive prozzies, some awesome liquor, a brick of weed and a bag of coke and see how much money I could win/lose.

 

You'd have to do it early on though I reckon. Whole point of gambling is the buzz of losing/winning. If you wait a few months and are used to the money then would just be like "meh, lost/won 100k" would mean nothing. Unless you did a 10 million pound bet or something

Couldn't spend it tbh.

If you only spent it on yourself, over the next, say, 60 years, you could spend £7,500 per day, and that doesn't even include interest.

If there is such a thing as too much money, this is it.

 

The other thing is the going public/staying private thing. I have absoloutely no idea why anyone would want to go public with it?

Saw an interview with a lottery winner a couple of weeks ago (after it was confirmed the winner Comm was on about was from the UK) and his reasoning was "well if you want to spend the money you have to go public as otherwise people will ask questions". The guy was obviously thick as **** but are there any actual good reasons for going public?

I always assumed that you forfeited a bit of the money if you didn't go public which is why people did but that is apparently bollocks

 

I would never in a million years go public.
**** that. I dont think you forfeit some of the money if you stay private, but I think you are offered more money to go public, by media outlets and ****.
But who gives a ****? Especially if you have won £170m!! Keep whatever paltry amount you are offering for a photo op and an interview with Phil and Holly on This Morning. (Unless Holly wants to ****, then I am game).

I would tell maybe half a dozen people, my wife, my parents and brother, my father in law, and my best mate (who is pretty much another brother) and thats about it!
My lifestyle wouldn't become so ridiculous that people would suspect I am a multi millionaire. I would just tell people I run my own business from home and its taken off.

 

I guess going public gets you more money as the press and **** will pay you for interviews (?), not that you'd need the money if you've won that sort of jackpot though.

I'm a closed-circle type of guy, only friends and family would know, **** going public.
