Default EuroMillions

Well I'm going to win the £75Million tonight and I've just worked out that I can get just over £12,000 a day interest and I'm trying to figure out what I'm going to spend it on

I think I'll offer all 5 members of my team at work a deal.
Walk out with me right now and I'll pay their salaries for the next year

I could spend 12k a day and any "change" I had left over at the end of the day I could just give to some random person just to see the look on their face

Better yet...sit on a bench in the town center in a mac and a hat with a paper bag, the first person to sit next to me, say to them in a blatantly fake russian accent "the sparrow flies in winter"...
When they reply "wtf" hand them the bag with a grand cash in and walk away....

What would you do with £75Million or £12,000 a day thats a bit more random or out of the ordinary

I'd laugh an awful lot.

Seriously, i'd laugh for a long time with joy after pocketing that amount. I'd basically live on the interest. The rest, well that would buy my assets! This page isn't big enough to list them! Of course i'd sort out all my family and friends. And I have a few charities that i'd help out too.

Now, back to reality

Sorry to tell you, but I'm winning the EuroMillions.

Once I collect my winnings, I'm also going to march into the chairmans office, and tell him he's sacked!

Buy every tool Snap-on have ever made
Buy a nice house
Buy a Lambo, put L-plates on it and pass my car test even though it would be stupidly difficult with that letterbox rear window, just because it would make people laugh

I wouldn't do anything for a few months , until the inevitable media furore had died down.
I'd certainly not buy anything flash or quit my job straight away.
I wouldn't tell anyone I'd won either or you might get kidnap threats etc and the whole world and his dog coming out of the woodwork with their hand out claiming to be your friend.

What I would do is give a couple of million to East Midlands Air ambulance (funded entirely by donations)
Probably give a few million each to Save the Children, Cancer Research, Riders for Health and the Red Cross too.

It would be nice to try and use some of the money to try and clean up this ****hole of a town I live in by funding some programs to tackle drug usage and associated violence, homelessness etc.

One luxury I would afford myself straight away would be a spanking new Gixxer 750

just having a little discussion at work now after this, if you had £1m, and you knew that if you were to leave it in the bank without touching it, (obviously pay off small debts and stuff first) you would gain about £170k a year interest, therefore be sorted financially for the rest of your life, do you think you could do it?? or do you think you would not be able to wait the year and would have to blow it all straight away!?!? so far most people here recon they could not hold them self back,
IMO i would take out say £50k pay off debt, have a good laugh etc for the year then still get a shed load of money from interest and live like a king after that!!!

what do u lot feel about that?
