Jackpot Lottery Winner!

Featured Replies

Hi All.

I'm sure, like me, many of you out there have a dabble on the Lottery now and again(UK, US, Oz etc). But, what would you do if you struck lucky and bagged the Jackpot of, say, US$ 70 Million or so? What woud you DO with all that Dosh? Would you still stay in Thailand, or head back 'home' (where-ever that may be) ? I know (and dream :o ) about what I'd do. I'd live like a KING in the LOS forever, with not a care in the world about ANYTHING! Wouldn't that be something ? :D

Looking forward to reading your thoughts and comments...

:o !!

You don't REALLY mean that, do you?

I'd stay in Thailand short-term, maybe for a few years, but then I'd move back to the UK with the wife. If Thailand weren't completely screwed up by the time we were say 45 years old or so, we'd come back.

You bet he does !! I would as well.

I'd show the immigration staff my bank balance swiftly on the way to Bali or somewhere :o

Yes in a hart beat.

Might stretch to 10%.

She would be set up for life.

I would keep it a secret,immediate family only.

I would invest into children's tax-free govenrment bonds,only redeemable age 21.

I would spend 4 months Thailand (transit out/return for visa requirements ,8 months UK,children's schools.

I would try & keep the children as far as possible on the ground.

I would write more & spend more time with the family,promise.

I would like to keep healthy,happy and myself.

dont sound too happy with the mrs at the moment are you . :o

firstly, I'd have a huge celebratory wank. :o:D:D

then I'd quit work and decide how much I was going to give to family, charity etc.

after that was done, I'd plough the cash into property (worldwide) & investments and visit as many countries as I could, living it up all the way.

I would tell only my closest family how much I'd won. everyone else I'd just say I'd won enough to let me stop working for a while.

Think you need a work permit for that.

Can't be doing people out of a job you know :D

What would I do with a 70 mill US lottery jackpot? Bluddy obvious the answer to that one is.

I'd move to Thailand and pull myself a loverly little bg from a bar in Pattaya. I'd then buy her and her family houses, pickups, mocys and lots of gold chains. I'd marry her and put all the remaining money into a joint bank account. Then I'd lie back and live out my life in utter poverty telling my hard luck story to anybody who'll listen. :D

So simple when you think about it. :o

:D and don't forget the nanny.............

and don't forget the 30 mil you'll have to give back to the the gov't.... :o

You know what I would do if I had a million dollars? I would invest half of it in low risk mutual funds and then take the other half over to my friend Asadulah who works in securities...

and don't forget the 30 mil you'll have to give back to the the gov't.... :o

Not if it's the UK lottery. It's tax free.

this is so good it must be true :bah:

$70 million is just too much.........£35,000,000.

I'd probably get a knighthood from giving £20M to charity......or maybe a peerage

Anybody know the price of a life peerage in the Uk these days?

The remaining £15M would see me far away from these cold, miserable, over-taxed, overcrowded, over-bureaucratised English climes.

Who knows.................I may even take the wife!!
