Lotto Euro Millions

Teh_GerbilTeh_Gerbil Posts: 13,332 Born on Earth, Raised by The Mix
For the first time ever, I am buying a ticket! I just GOT to be in with a chance of that much cash. Lucky Dip time!

Ah, if I won, what would I do?

Donate some to here!
Buy a Capri 1.6! Woo.
Buy a Polikarpov I-16 :D
Buy some more stuff for my PC.
Give some to my parents.
Buy a Flat.
Live off the rest forever. Woo!

Oh, and I would finish this year at college... regardless... might as well! And set up my own Ebay business, woo.

So what would YOU do?

    I'd buy a great big turnip in the country.

    Got myself a ticket too although 100 million is a bit much, you would never need that much money
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    fast cars, women, booze and drugs...more than likely.

    it'd be a slippery slope, but an enjoyable one

    I'd be quite happy with 100 million. I'm sure I could find some use.

    I heard this morning that this is the last time the rollover is going to get this big. After this jackpot has been won they are capping the rollover to three times. How the hell does that work? Surely the only winner with that is Camelot? Once the jackpot gets to 25million euros what happens to all the cash that is spent on tickets once the limit has been reached? Does it go straight into camelots pocket or straight into the charity fund?

    Saying that it ain't going to stop me buying a couple of lucky dips. And what would I do with 100million?

    I think the question is what COULDN'T you do with 100mill ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    it's meant to go straight to charity, such as what would happen if this one wasn't won. I don't get why though.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The first thing I'd buy is a one way ticket around the world! leave money for friends and family and id be off for 2 years. then id come back and party for another year. Then I'd be bored and look at starting up a business.
    I've got 3 tickets!

    I don't understand either. I mean it's not really worth buying a ticket for a triple rollover of only £25mill is it? :p
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Also ninja have you found any info on the net?

    Having a look just now. Can't see anything. Heard it on the BBC news last night and this morning. I'll keep looking.

    Not really no ;)

    I don't understand the capping. Chances are that, as the jackpot increases, you will have more than 1 winner anyway, so it's not like one person would get a sublimely massive prize. And, even if they did, why shouldn't they get a massive prize more massive than the week before?

    Careful with conspicuous consumption - you will become the celebrity stereotype. :rolleyes:

    I would be carefeful with the money.

    Save some.
    Spend some.
    Spend some more.
    Spend it all.

    I'd pay my economics teacher £50,000 first of all to get on his knees and worship me and apologise for bitching about me all the time.

    First Id buy my mum a new house, somewhere nice and warm. I think she'd get on well in France actually, but wherever. I wouldnt let anyone really know that Id won it, because my sister would ruin my life by heckling me for money: "If I won the lottery Id give you £10,000,000 straight away! :(".

    I might then leave school, and take some time out to do some things I want to do. It might be interesting one day to do a mathematics degre though. I think Id probably buy some stocks in google, so that I could live off the dividends when Im bankrupt. I dunno. I actually think I wouldnt know what to do with that amount of money.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I cant even comprehend winning £100,000, let alone £100 million... :chin:

    I wouldn't have a clue what to do :crazyeyes
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    When I win I might give some to the people who are nice to me ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The boyfriend bought a ticket last week. Every morning he's woke up and told me what he's dreamt he's going to buy next. :rolleyes: Apparently I get a pink car and a flat off him, along with anything else I want. Suits me.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I might try and bribe the government so that all schools and workplaces start at 10.00am instead of 9.00. Extra hour in bed ;)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    The chances of me winning it are extremely small.





    I haven't bought a ticket!!!!!!


    Might just have a dabble tonight though.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I've just bought 2 lines and I'm not sure why :(. The chances are stupidly small. But then again, someones got to win.

    It had better be you so you can buy your way into government and make chav hunting legal.

    Plus I'd like a bigger occult book collection :)
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I read that the odds are 76,000,000-1 of winning. Fat chance! Apparently the biggest odds bookmakers give out for a bet is 20,000,000-1. Something like Elvis Presley riding into town on Shergar to play Lord Lucan at the final of Wimbeldon. Might put a few quid on that on? :chin:

    I wouldn't want that amount of money but if I did.

    I'd burn 1 million, just to see what it looks like.
    I'd give a shit load to charities
    Loads of women
    Loads of drink n drugs
    Big house
    Car

    The usual millionaire lifestyle shit.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    Id like to give everyone in the UK a quid....

    Hey, winning the lottery is good for two things:

    1) The money.

    2) You will find out who your real friends are.
  • Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
    I'm buying a ticket for tnites draw. If I win, I shall:

    Make sure everyone I love is extremely comfortable money-wise.
    I'd buy myself a renovated church/manor, I'd have my entire wardrobe tailor made by Vivienne Westwood or Alexander McQueen, I'd buy several cars - generally have the usual millionnaire lifestyle...
    I'd also like to set up in business, do something I really loved - probably stay at college and finish a degree just for the hell of it.

    not let anyone in.
