Re: If I won the lotto
 
Hmmmm.....If I won a decent amount I would only work wednesdays and thursdays, from 10am until 2pm with an hour for lunch..:D I would buy a holiday cottage in the Lakes and make sure that my family were ok. I would also travel a lot more.....I know I travel a fair amount now, but it is my hobby and I am constantly saving up. It would be nice to travel without having to save first.

Re: If I won the lotto
 
Being retired and pushing 70 a Lottery win, and my chances of such a win are from nil to minus a lot because I don’t buy any of the tickets, would be of no real use to me. My flat may be a long way from a palace but it does me. I am warm, dry, not starving and I always have a few quid left over come pension day.

I have no aspirations to lead the high life so if I won the Lottery I would declare that the winning ticket belonged to a syndicate made up of adult family members, excluding me, thus avoiding any taxes because of gifts. An adult family member would be a blood line but not their spouse or partner. I would expect each adult family member to hold £1,000 on my behalf to enable me to replace any appliance that dies and new clothes as they wear out or cash upon request.

Each adult family member would have one share in the winnings with extra shares for those who had dependants. Thus if one of my adult family members had three children s/he would have four shares.

I would set my children up, of course, and set up a trust for my grandchildren so that they are well educated and never have to worry. I would buy a house in London rather than a flat, so that I could have more friends to stay more often, and have a bigger table to have more friends sitting round. I would love to travel more, I have a list of places I want to see before I die - always wanted to go across the Sahara, even have the route worked out, but not sure if health would permit any more. I would also be able to help out friends who are struggling, just give them a hand when they need it, not a handout. And of course - the big Accyweb party, with champagne flowing (and beer, of course) and party bags for everybody! Oh, and I'd give up the day job and just do voluntary work!

If I won the Lotto, I would make sure all my Immediate family where comfortable............( yes you guessed it I'd buy them all a easy chair each):D

I would travel all over the place, and I would make sure that my children had enough money when I am gone.

I would also set up a couple of huge farms that takes in stray dogs and cats so that they don't have to be put down just because no-one wants them.

Seems like most of us would look after our kids first.....and then leave a little bit for ourselves.......and that,s as it should be.......

I would buy a nice house in the country, not decided which country though, certainly not Britain.Then I would make sure the kids are taken care of...anyone know any hit men ....(only joking) and also invest in some for the grandkids and great grandchild.
