I know this much their family trees will grow, theres nowt like the smell of money to bring all the so called
friends and family out of the woodwork.

Best thing to do is get some cards printed with the address of the nearest local Ministry of labour on them, hand them out, and stand back for the diatribe.

Retlaw.

I'd like to win enough money on the lottery to pay my debt off and treat myself, but I'd hate to win enough to make people act differently around me.

jaysay · 05-03-2009, 09:49

Just heard about this before I logged on to AW, I had a visitor who told me her best friend had won a share of a big jackpot win in a works syndicate, good on them, good news for some one for a change

If they were only liking me for money then no, because that would just defeat the point.

Blazey if you won a lot of money you'd be surprised how many long lost friends and relations would come out of the woodwork

That's good for them, though it still won't convince me that buying a lottery ticket is a good way to spend my money.

We have no real say where are taxes are spent, but I have the right to choose not to fund some of the 'good causes', some of which I don't think are all that good or worthy, that the Lotto funds, in the vain hope I might be one of the few people who win a significant amount of dosh.

Margaret Pilkington · 05-03-2009, 13:08

good luck to them......I hope they enjoy their winnings, but like Garinda, I don't do the lottery. For similar reasons.
