YangYaiEric Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 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 ) 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 ? Looking forward to reading your thoughts and comments... YangYai.

fauxie Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

game4shame Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 firstly, I'd have a huge celebratory wank. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilHarries Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 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. So simple when you think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fxm88 Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 You know what I would do if I had a million dollars?

crowbait Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 $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!!
