That would be nice wouldn’t it?
I’d buy myself an amusement arcade I think. Full of the old 80s machines. Bollox to all the gambling stuff they have in them now.

If I won big there's an old victorian pub on Hackney Rd I like to buy and have a dungeon in the basement, a swingers club on the ground and first floor and live on the top floor. It would only be used for private parties as I can't be arsed with the administration side of things. A few years back I would have said invest in sustainable housing for young homeless people and fund special needs sensory parks but im currently in a "fuck the world" phase right now and all about the hedonism (it won't last, I'll be idealic and poor in no time) |

So let me get this right...You'd still chose to live in Tamworth if you won the lottery? |

"I would be very confused as I don't do the lottery.
So I would probably say you have the wrong person.
I don't do it either."

I'd go buy a nice house and VR equipment in a nice city with a cool car and live happy. After that I probably wouldn't spend much and would just use the rest for investments so I can have a pretty nice wage without having to work. |

Depends on the post-tax lump sum amount…
If it was less than £5m I don’t think I’d change much for myself. I’d probably go buy my parents a few larger things they wouldn’t buy themselves because they think it’s frivolous. I’m happy with my life atm though and would otherwise just not use it wisely on myself. It would mostly go towards a diversified investment portfolio and the dividends would supplement our income.
If it was over £5m, I’d set up a lifetime trust and would get the mrs that big house she has been going on about for a while now and put it in said trust so it can go tax free to the kids one day and we can’t be forced to sell it to co-fund our pension in 30 years.
Either way, work wouldn’t change. We’d keep doing what we have been doing and personal life we’d rather spend it when we’ve got kids. Got to pay for those extortionate Disneyland Orlando entry prices somehow…
Oh, and maybe I’d fuel up the car at Shell instead of Sainsbury’s. get me some of that pseudo-fancy petrol. |

So basically you want to get a big house, take your kids to dismal land , avoid paying any tax yet still get the taxpayers to fund your own pension. Just reminded me why I don’t live in the UK.  |

Pretty much. If all the rich get to do it, then so shall I, seems only fair. Haha. UK has more tax loopholes than anywhere else and I urge as many people to get pissed off about them so they get changed. EU is proposing a global billionaires wealth tax. I can guarantee the U.K. won’t sign up to it, or if it does will exclude its overseas territories. In Dubai you get British car drivers paying your pension. |

"Go and find the person who has only £50 and no home and help them out."
They’d be far better off if you gave the money to a charity who ensure they are taken care of (regardless of what you might think of those charities and the percentage gets eaten up by admin) as well as many others. They know how to take care of vulnerable homeless people and there is a pathway to their own home for all that aren’t deemed to be here illegally.
But I do like that you want to give to them. I’ve made deals with hairdressers before to provide free hair cuts and have given large sums to soup kitchens as I don’t believe the government is doing enough here. Would I give them a big chunk of my winnings though? No, but only because it won’t fix the problem and I’d rather people rose up against rich people for not paying their dues towards the most vulnerable in society. |

Haha, I shall incorrect the correction even though mini mouse is damn cute! 
You can go camping outside Disney land too. Best bits of both world. Well, not best bits - camping in the Peak District is definitely superior to camping in the Disneyland car park. |
