Ok, here's one...

Post by Wiggy »

You're sat at home one Saturday night watching the lottery. I know both of these things are near improbable, but bear with me. You watch as, one by one, your lottery numbers come up on this Super Duper Mega Rollover(TM) week, and you realise you've won 50 million quid.

What do you buy with it?

(You don't have to spend it all by the way, it always helps to keep some back just in case.)

Sililar to Anham.

20 Mil in the bank, None in the stock market, a bit too risky.
10 Mil between friends and Family, maybe a chunk for WEY to start up the LAN? Only if we can call it something fancy, and I'm in a partnership.. Or something.. Shwatever! *Continues fantasising*

Two or three High spec PC's in a decently sized house in a fancy Cul-De-Sac, Driving lessons and a decent car.

And lastly a flurry of plane tickets to see my friends around the world and treat them to anywhere they wanted to go

Ok my turn, seeing as I neglected to post my stuff in the first place *belms*

I'd go the same as Anham and get 10 mil in the bank, 10mil in something else like the stock market.

5mil to the family, probably another 5mil split between my friends.

First thing, go back to uni and get a degree, because I always wanted to finish it. Buy a £500k house in whatever city I went to uni in. Also an Audi A8 because they are teh sexeh.

I'd get my PPL sorted out so I can fly again (yes I have one) and buy a P51 Mustang because I'd need something to piss about in. Oh, and another house in the country (or maybe another country?) with a runway round back. :boogie:

A Sunseeker 105 for the holidays.

For cars, a Mclaren Mercedes SLR, Pontiac Trans Am, Alpina B7 and one of those bikes from that American Chopper programme.

I think that's it...

I was planning to go to Canada and New Zealand next year... I'll win the lottery after, methinks.

1. Get kicked out of my job
2. Buy some of the things I've always wanted (Aston Martin Vantage, ninja PC, nice house)
3. Pay off my parents' villa in Spain, and get my sister a flat in London
4. Get a good accountant and live off the interest
5. .....
6. Profit

I'd probably while away my hours learning about mechanics and restoring old cars/vintage military vehicles. 'Cos I'm sad like that.

Several cars, a biiig house, the best computer money can buy (or a dozen), share out 5-10mil with friends/family, a few million between some charities (also known as a get into heaven free card >_>) and the rest goes into the bank until I can figure out what else to buy.
