I've Won the Lottery
 
Hi everyone!  Haven't really won the lottery - but what would you spend your millions on if you did??? [smiley=yelrotflmao.gif]

I would give it away. Worst thing that could happen. You probably wont understand.. But win the lottery..equals GAME OVER

Would you not keep some of it - just to have security???

HarryX 10-09-2003 19:57

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
Well yeagh :) Spread it around the family.. make sure theres some for backup.. But millions and millions in the bank... not a good idea.

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
I would be happy if I could just win enough to see my family right and fulfill my dream. Then just enough to get by.

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
I've only ever won a tenner, so I kept it. Not much to spread around the family really. Don't fancy the idea of winning millions. Think it would probably spoil my life, friendships etc. ;D

I won the lottery last night, just about to start to plan my future with my winnings. What could I possibly buy for £40. Not bad for two numbers on that hot pick thingy

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
I would hate to win the jackpot, if you started buying house, car, holidays some people would only call you for showing off. It would make me paranoid i would be unhappy with a lot of money but there again i could allways move away. [smiley=idea.gif]

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
I could not win it if i was the only one in it  :'(

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
id love to win the lottery.

just knowing that your financially sound for life without worries must be fantastic and being able to help family and friends must surely be rewarding.

the first thing id do is take a holiday for three weeks to get my head round the idea.

then id seek some land so I could build my football club a pitch and its own Club House - Heaven

GAME OVER

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
that's a very narrow minded view on things HarryX.

i'd definately work - not every millionaire in the world doesnt work!!

I know for a fact that id invest in a least half a dozen different ventures in which I would definately keep my nose in.

I might not work 5 days a week or start at 9.00am but I would be working - the difference being that id be working in something that I enjoy.

And you could definately be my assistant Tracey - you can check my emails on your lap top at the beech bar!!!!

HarryX 11-09-2003 15:22

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
If you where financialy secure as you seuggested. You wouldnt have the incentive to work.

Millionaires that work are the ones who made there millions.. they cant stop..

normal people who spend there life trying to make ends meet and going to work when they would rather not.. suddenly have no need to go to work.. then they wont.. believe me you wouldnt... what would be your icentive to go to work?  if its to make more money then what for if your already financialy secure..

BTW its a point of view .. please dont call me narrow minded :)

adi 11-09-2003 15:53

Re: I've Won the Lottery
 
i wasnt calling you narrow minded HarryX - i was just saying that it was a narrow way of looking at the whole picture.

i know for a fact personally i would work - the longest ive been off work (not including holidays) was three days when i was ill and i can hand on heart say that I was itching to get back to work.

ive thought long and hard about how winning the lottery would change things and i know that if I was ever fortunate enough to win it - i would buy the place where I work now, because I enjoy working there.

i think my 'incentive' would be to try a open a few other business in the surrounding area so that i can give something back to Hyndburn by creating work for local people.

Im not sure what i would do with the money. Move abroad, live in a large, but modest house, make sure all my family are well looked after, maybe invest money in certain things, and probably give a load to charities  :)
