"Me and H had fun yesterday planning what we would do if we won the lottery?
Thought it would be fun to see what would everyone else do?
F&H xxx" Really depends on how much I'd win , if it was a massive rollover and 50 or 70 million, would be a lot I'd use it for for a start 25 million would go into a trust investment fund, and every year the interest would go to one of my charities, , The remaining money , I would firstly ensure all my family members who I'm close to would not have to worry about any money worries again,a few close freinds also , then I'll buy myself a new Rolex as I've just sold mine to keep myself afloat, , and definitely a Mercedes AMGGT, a Mercedes 300 gullwing , Porsche 911 1980s Flatnose original, and the new Porsche taycan , and a pair of Nike mag boots ( from back to the future film ) happy to stay where I live , |

The idea of winning any prize is appealing, but for me it's the bigger the better.
A £100 million Euro Millions Jackpot is something I would have absolutely no issue with facing the challenging of dealing with.
I'd invest a decent chunk, help a few mates set up businesses they've always talked about having and give a bit to a good cause. Something I could get personally involved in and see the real benefits of my involvement with my own eyes. Maybe providing playground facilities for kids in deprived inner-city areas. I think if you've had good fortune in life you should try and 'pay a bit of it forward'.
In the main, however, my life would become one long holiday. I'd definitely have my own private jet, box at City, places in London, the Caribbean and somewhere in the country. That would be £20 million I reckon.
Although financially things have improved a lot for me recently I've been relatively skint for the last few years. One of the consequences of that is not being able to go away anywhere abroad with my son in recent years and I'd love to be able to jet off with him and take him to some of the world's most amazing places with me.
Having had money and lost it, and to some extent got it back again, I can say with some confidence that whilst it doesn't make you happy, it does make a big difference in life. I've always liked nice restaurants, hotels and cars. They make me feel nice.
Having money also changes your ranking in relation to affairs of the heart. It's not just about material things. Having lots of money makes people self-assured and means the exude self-confidence, which all combine to make someone appear more attractive to possible mates. You're calling the shots, much more than if you're skint.
It's all good, really. |

Oh god I always look on right move at the most expensive houses in London, the ones with the swimming pools and gyms in the basement. I’d build one like that but here in Wales.
It would be cats then. Oh the cars I would have. We’re talking millions yeah, won about 100 mill?
So I’d have the Bugatti Chiron, just because. Koenigsegg agera RS, Nissan GTR, Lancia Delta, Range Rover Onyxx edition in white, Jaguar F Pace SVR, MK2 Ford escort in sky blue, Lamborghini Urus in black, Pagani huayra and probably more and they’d all have a huge garage with underfloor heating.
Then I’d have whatever cosmetic surgeries I could have to make myself an absolute weapon, also sort out family and two friends. |

"I won’t buy but rent everything I want depends on the day/month or season
"
Sensible way ahead.
I met a multi millionaire who told me if flies, floats or Fucks - rent it.
Once I knew him better I did find out he was true to this maxim.
For the first two I would agree with him. Renting the plane or boat keeps you away from the running costs.
Sex is better with some level of emotion. A cash transaction. Yuck. |

Exactly my point. No need to bother with running and caring costs of materials.
Not sure about fucks tho , I have to agree with you on that and also outfits and lingerie should be excluded from renting as well |

I'm sure that everyone would have a go a spending a big lottery win , but for normal folks would it be that easy ?
For instance the Mrs says I need some new shoes , and would normally be looking at say £50 , so you think I will get me some of those red carpet designer shoes ,
So off you go to say Selfridge's
They say oh yes we've got some lovely shoes £250
And your like , no those £5grand shoes you see on TV
To which they reply , you best get yourself to London
Your dream house , yep if we start now it will be built in 18months
The dream car , yep we can move heaven and earth , pick it up on a year

Surely if you won millions tho, a trip to London wouldn't be an issue, or Milan or anywhere else to buy amazing things........ |

To be honest I would not want more than I have now.
Always wanted to run a B&B so would probably invest in a place by the coast... With land and amimals.
Buy green land close to Schools and build Forest Schools there for the Schools to deliver outdoor classes.
Once you have a nice home and a nice car what else is there?
I would split it between my boys
One thing I would love to do is buy an enclosed complex of houses and donate back to the Womens refuge to give women and their children the chance to rebuild their lives after leaving awful situations.
Period poverty is also something I am vested in so would make sure foodbanks Schools, Colleges and Universities had supplies.
I would get much more pleasurr out of giving to others than I ever would for myself. Not materialistic never have been |

First thing would be to make sure family and friends were looked after.
Then buy a nice plot of land and have a house built.

I'd open a swingers club with all mod cons with its own beach for parties, barbecues and cocktails. Themed beach huts too. I'd call it Club Tropicana, all drinks free. Everyone would be let in for free. Well apart from men, they'd be £50 |

If I won like 100mil I would give my boys 45mil each so they can go and enjoy their lives, with the 10 I kept for myself I would buy a small holding in Cornwall close to my favourite beach and live out a very contented life with a couple of dogs and maybe a donkey and a few chickens |

All I know is that winning the lottery means never having to do anything you don't want to do ever again!
That must be what true bliss feels like
Stuff is just stuff. |

There isn't really anything I want? Would probably spend some money doing my house n garden up, have a bit better car and better holidays. Mostly I would just like to win enough to not work again

Buy a chunk of land here and there and build my own homes.
Inwould also build new homes and allow some poor/needy/sick people to live in them for next to nothing.
I would also start a new camcer charity where they DO look at the benefits of CBD and other treatments, the charity would receive 100% of donations and be clear about how it is used.
I would also have a harem;) |

Depends on the size of the win.
1 million I'd sort my kids out with a house each,pay my mortgage off and it would be all gone.
To retire I'd need 2.5 million to be comfortable and enjoy life for the next 40 or so years.
10s of millions I'd rescue all the old sick dogs no one wants and look after them in the latter part of their life.
Nice house with a gym, couple of cars I'd like to go with it, I'd be happy.

Large house custom built in UK, villa abroad, probably some place in Asia for wife. Some give to all family members couple of million enough so they can all retire and live a nice life.
Rest all bank and create some businesses which I know could easily become worldwide.
No fancy cars or wastage , have no interest in that. |

Depends on the size of the win, if multi millions then a luxury yacht, round the world cruise (obviously once covid no concern), sort all friends and family out financially and certain charitable organisation donations, depends how much obviously to how far we can stretch it. |

Would be a house for me, with a custom built "party shack" separate from the house.
Wouldn't have a kitchen but would have a kettle, toaster and fridge. There would be a games room and a bar, a dungeon room, a chill zone, a bathroom with huge shower for multiple people, and ample places to fuck. That way I wouldn't have people wandering round my home but could entertain

I’d buy a couple of properties, have an incredible holiday and invest the rest because I’m boring like that. But I could then spend more every month on fun stuff without paying for rent or a mortgage! |

If I couldn't find the house I wanted in the right area, I'd build a house.
Travel the world and sort some people out
I would also get myself a personal trainer and get myself fit. |

Be careful gifts that size have the wherewithal to damage the unwary. Seen it happen and wasn't able to stop or assist, lovely thought though. |

This is something I often think about. If I won a decent amount, say £100m on EuroLottery, I'd buy a decent sized pub and turn it into an Open Mic venue. I'd convert a room into a recording studio and during the day would use the performance area for rehearsal space and open it up to local singer-songwriters regardless of age. I'd employ music tutors for beginners, and I'd employ my mate, who is a duty manager of a pub chain to run the bar. Most open mics I go to pay the acts very little, if anything, or just a free drink. I'd give each act £50 for a 20 minute slot.
I wouldn't buy a big house. I'm happy where I am. But I would obviously put some into a trust fund for my kids, help out a couple of special friends and support a couple of local charities in Hull and York that support young musicians. My only luxury would be a decent car. Nothing too flash, though. Just practical and comfortable.
I'd better start buying tickets then! |
