Greetings one and all,
Well im sure most of our forum members have heard that a lucky person in Ireland has won the largest LOTTO price ever given

Here is my question to you?
IF IT HAD BEEN YOU WHO WON 240 ODD MILLION ,
What do you think you would do with it?

And to add a bit of extra thought, Do you think it would be a good thing or a bad thing to win so much money ?

I WAS THINKING ABOUT ONE OF THE LAST BIG WINNERS A SCOTTISH POSTMAN & IT ENDED IN DEVORCE & A FORTUNE SPENT ON A MASSIVE ESTATE THAT WAS SOLD IN THE END at a loss to what he paid for it and the money spent (over 1 million doing it up)

Sorry for the capitals my pc is having a fit and the keys sticking,

Well away you go and lets share this dream spending spree :exploding_head:

ooh I can’t wait for the replies to this one,

(Such as No more Aldi thursday & Sunday cheap sale visit,)

Or I’d pretend I’d never won and the Roll’s was a gift from a friend, :innocent:

Come on dont keep me in suspenders any longer, It’s only £240 plus million,

Stopped playing, an old geezer don’t need millions, or dreams :grin:

I still buy the odd lottery ticket but, let’s face it, this expenditure is for people who are bad at maths.

You stand more chance of being struck by lightning twice than winning such a sum.

May the odds be ever in your favour…

It’s a huge responsibility to win such a large sum. Suddenly everyone wanting to be your friend. Desperate people contacting you with their problems. Having to rely on unscrupulous financial advisers to tell you how to manage it.

I think people see the champagne and smiles, but they don’t realise the flip side. I think it’s pretty bewildering and I’m not surprised marriages can break down.

I have very very rarely ever played the lottery because I’ve studied the maths. To have a chance at winning you’d have to spend quite a bit making multiple bids using various permutations every week. At least 50 lines.
