Winning the Lotto. Why go public?

[bobpc30]

Why do the lottery and stay working? Is that not why people do it, to give up work.

 

[The Exile]

You'd be hounded the rest of your life.

I'd have to think for a while before telling Mrs Exile tbh. I'm not sure I would even tell the family for a year or two, let the curiosity die down.

 

[jackynutmeg]

I'd be living abroad in a hotter climate within weeks.

They could just think you're from Jarra!

I'd tell everyone then fuck off to California

 

[kossoff]

Whats to organise? Unless you're going to invest it to make more money, which is just being greedy.

Just split it up between a few banks, earn a bit of interest & just enjoy yourself without going stupidly daft that you blow it all.

It's not that as such. They have a duty to educate to help protect winners against blowing all their money. This service is provided whether you go public or not.

 

[bennett83]

They should revoke the lottery win and give to someone who'll appreciate it and blow the lot

Id turn up for work with £25k cash, hold 5 raffles for £5k each and then watch the ensuing mayhem as the losers go mental. Them I'd be off - chuckling as I went.

I wouldn't tell them , send em a postcard, you know that money you owe me, you can keep it .

 

[Boz33]

You'd not see me for dust

Apparently most lottery winners spunk it all away in eighteen months. Amateurs!




I reckon I can do it in six

Reminds me of the old Roy castle of record breakers fame bad taste joke

 

[Johnap]

Buy a seat on the board for £10m?

 

[Thurston]

Rodwell has technically won the lottery and still goes to work.

Allegedly

 

[Alan BStard]

Got to be a half way house on this. Put it about that you've had a decent inheritance in order to explain any obvious changes. No need to cough to having millions more squirreled away.

 

[West_Winger]

I don’t know if I’d give up work entirely. Id get bored. I’m bad enough itching for something to do if I’ve been off for a fortnight.

 

[Fred Secrets]

I'm sure you'd find something to do if you had over 20 million pounds.

 

[Gucci Massive]

Should go and live abroad

But how would you convert into foreign currency?

Transferwise. I think they only take off a few quid.

I don’t know if I’d give up work entirely. Id get bored. I’m bad enough itching for something to do if I’ve been off for a fortnight.

I'd still work like but I'd probably have a few months travelling around the world and getting spangled.

Cross the border. The Ferrari will be less conspicuous in Jarra.

 

[KeefBeer]

Weeks!!
There's a flight to Dubai every lunchtime

 

[JL1985]

I'd go back to work and what a last day it would be. My god I would cut loose and let everyone know exactly what I thought.

 

[Linny]

I'd rather be left to my own devices with it. I'd buy everyone on here a pint at the match like.

I'll hold you to that, Becs.
