If you won the euromillions what would you buy?

[Richie]

I'd probs try to buy a company, a house, a car, bank the rest then live off the interest from the company / bank. Keep the rest of the money for the next generation, if there will be any :P

[Kyle]

sulake

[GommeInc]

Oh, no one won the £56 million last night! It's £67 million this Tuesday.

I'd completely renovate the family home, go on holiday with friends and family and invest in a few things. Chucking it in the bank and living off the interest is impossible these days, too heavily taxed.

[kuzkasate]

Depends really, quite a big difference between 14 million and 140 million :P But I'd definitely buy a house, a car - then invest the rest into something or open a business.

[Samantha]

Buy another Euromillions ticket to see if you're lucky again. I'd probably go on holiday not sited what else.

[lawrawrrr]

I'd buy a car, design and build my own house and just generally enjoy life - and give some to my family so they can too. Probably invest in a few small businesses too!

[mrwoooooooo]

id buy habbox

[Mathew]

Buy one of these houses on Disney property in Florida: http://www.disneygoldenoak.com/

...or one of these big houses in Celebration, Florida: http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-search/Celebration_FL?source=web

omgggggg, so nice.

[David]

a house and move back to my home town
and buy eleanor
and a house in madrid then i can go to real madrid games :¬:

[Red]

pay of my student debts, go travelling and see as much of the world as possible, then come home and buy a house.

[Futz]

Sort my family out so they don't moan, move abroad with my 7 friends, buy a big house, move them all in, fill it with cool ****, get us all cars then we'd make it last!

[Eric]

buy everything in my want-to-buy list

car, clothes, a house, and etc

[=Lizzy]

spend the money so i could go to a private school/college
then on university.
on a house for my mum and family
new car
id like to buy a shop

[MKR&*42]

buy a house in the middle of nowhere so that i dont have to put up with people :P

[Red]

I also forgot that if i ever win this, I owe Richie a bus gaff and if he wins he owes me a trip around the world

[.Joshua.]

I Would

A. Buy a new house and repair any broken items i own, or w.e
B. Give some of the money to Charity
C. Give some of the money to close friends, including family.

Thats about it, depending on how much i won.

[IceNineKills]

buy somewhere crappy like wales and blow it up.

[Martin]

a house

[Chris]

House, car, a long holiday and then invest the rest!

[Maatt.]

another ticket.

[Empired]

Invest most of it 'cause there's a story about a binman who won £7mil or something, spent it all and went back to being a binman again lol

[Plod]

I'd give my family a few million each to spend as they please, financially help out close friends.
Donate money to charities I like, animal charities, national/international poverty charities and cancer/illness charities.

Admittedly, the rest of the money would be spent selfishly.

I'd buy nice properties around the UK, the US, Canada and Australia. And rent them out when I'm not in them.
I'd invest £2 million into a business or company in the U.S. so I can get an investment immigration visa (green card) so I could live there when I feel like it.
I'd go on lots of expensive holidays, around the world.
I'd do an intense driving course to get my licence ASAP (my brother did something like that) and buy a new car or two. Something expensive.
Mostly, I'd save a lot of it and lift off the Interest. I definitely wouldn't squander it. I don't see the point in buying numerous cars or silly things like private jets which would cost half a Euro Millions win. I'd still continue my education and all that, if just for something to keep me occupied, like I'd probably study abroad and stuff.

[geo]

I'd travel all over the world and just live lol. Wouldn't have to worry so much!
Obviously I'd give some of it to my parents too, they can do whatever the hell the want with it. :P
I'd also probably go to Orlando for a few months :¬:

[Becca]

Donate it all to the Asparagus Syndrome Charity

[Jurv]

Donate it all to the Asparagus Syndrome Charity

aw that's really sweet of u becca :) x

i would probably fly to new york, buy a fab new camera, laptop and give some to my family

[Kasabian]

nuclear weapons.

[Conspiracy.]

Buy a big house in Canada (with a pool), go to Japan for a bit, buy loads of awesome ****, give a few million to my friends and family and donate a lot to a charity to help starving families in Africa.

[Robbie]

You sound so much like my Canadian friend tbf. Lives in Canada, would love to go to Japan and I wouldn't put it past him to give an awful lot to his friends because he's that kinda guy xD.

[mrwoooooooo]

id also open my own nando's restaurant

[scottish]

I'd bank it and gradually buy small items and not let anyone know that I had won it as most of the people would just be after your money

I'd get married to a korean girl though to make buttons; jelly

[e5]

I'd buy me a few cars, my mum and dad an amazing car of their choice, my Grandma a Jaguar she's always wanted. I'd buy my own place, but totally do up where i'm currently living for my mum and dad. I'd buy the extension for my Aunty's house she has always wanted and have the inside done up. I'd then take me and my girlfriend on holiday, and then book one for the whole family. I'd treat my girlfriend to whatever.. a car, clothes, nights out, meals, and we'd live in the house i'd buy. The rest i'd use to live off to buy whatever I want... Maybe try gain some interest on it if I could. I'd also give some money to charity :)

[Jazz]

id buy a house in the country somewhere, maybe buy a bugatti and a couple of small companies

[Oleh]

If it was say, the £126,000,000 jackpot, I'd split £6,000,000 with all my close friends and relatives (I hate having odds and ends). Buy a hotel some place, preferably with decent internet, and move all of my willing friends and family, and their close family, probably cost about £500,000-£1,000,000 for the size I'd want. Chuck £9,000,000 into paying the bills, should last a substantial amount of time. Leaves me with £110,000,000, I'd talk to a financial advisor and chuck £5,000,000 - £10,000,000 into investments or something, leaving me with a nice round £100,000,000 to split into £25,000,000 to spend and £75,000,000 to put into bank account to mature.

[-:Undertaker:-]

Live off the interest.

[Alkaz]

range rover > house > golf course

[LiquidLuck.]

I'd keep the money in my bank account until I really needed it.

[iBlueBox]

Buy a full size replica of one of these bad boys.

[Succubus]

Travel around the world, buy a house, give some to charity and save the rest :)

[karter]

a freakin' house in beverly hills omg

[shiver]

SPEND IT. if i won a million i'd buy a car (nothing gr8 i am too weary to have a sports car) and just spend the rest as i see fit. buy a house when i get out of uni so i don't need to worry about a mortgage n stuff.

if i won the jackpot... i'd probably do the same and give my family a lot of it because there's no way i will ever need £126 million or whatever the jackpot is. wouldn't invest any of it because it's pure greed investing it when u have that much anyway. it's like that guy from westlife who made a fortune for being a singer but NO, always wanting more, put it all into property in ireland and we all know the situation there now!!!!!!!!!! gutted u greedy idiot

[Lee]

I'd buy a nice car, house, holiday and give some to my family. Then I'd probably try and control what I spend it on from there. What more do you really need :P

[LoveToStack]

it's like that guy from westlife who made a fortune for being a singer but NO, always wanting more, put it all into property in ireland and we all know the situation there now!!!!!!!!!! gutted u greedy idiot

It's not greed as much as it is good sense. A house will still be a house after inflation but X million will be worth significantly less after 50 years.

Also to all the people who want to donate to charity: if you actually give a damn then set aside a lump sum and put it in a savings account and don't touch it until you die. That way you'll be able to donate much more and benefit more people. Sure you won't live to see the credit but you shouldn't be donating for a sense of self-righteousness anyway really.

Indeed, and to add to this: quite a few charities aren't all that interested in lots of money - they would rather people volunteered.

[PaulMacC]

Am I the only one who'd hate to win the lotto? The achievement wouldn't be there. I don't know, I'd like to earn my money. It would be like someone giving me a degree without working for it. Just my 2 cents though.

I suppose it depends what you do with it. If you use the money to invest in peoples dreams, help out in the community and generally use it for selfless reasons then there could be some sense of achievement. Lottery money seems like money best shared rather than locked away in some safe in a bank - not like you can live off the interest these days anyway :P

That said, if you opened up a business and it became successful, would you find it an achievement? I probably wouldn't in some areas, simply because you have the lottery winnings to fall back on if it had gone wrong.

[mrwoooooooo]

hope everyone has their tickets for tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111

[SackRace]

**** WHAT TIME NEED TO GET SOME

[mrwoooooooo]

can get them up to 7pm?

100 1millionaires
jackpot 105million

[dbgtz]

Going by the current jackpot of £105m I'd give each member of my "home" family and my dads side of the family £1million (even if I dislike them slightly), ignoring my mothers side as they have been complete ********s to my mother. Though I'd do this clearly stating that they should never come to me for money again, might sound mean but I don't want people constantly asking me for money. This leaves me with around £89m. I would most likely keep £15m in investments such as gold and housing leaving me with £74m. I'd then probably use £4m for university costs, a fairly nice car + a few years insurance and just buying **** I really wanted. I'd also, if I knew others who wanted to, buy a few of those Virgin Galactic tickets so I'll minus a £1m or so extra leaving me with £69m. I would then probably invest in business, perhaps pay for some cleaning and repairs around my town (as it's starting to become a **** hole). I wouldn't give any to any form of charity as I really don't trust they would use it very well, and should I feel that action is needed anywhere I would go and do it myself.

[peteyt]

I'd pay my student debts off and a few other things. I'd fund my company, maybe get a house and so on

[Absently]

buy a lovely house, car, buy my mother a house in france and a car too

[Fuseless]

I would start my own insurance company so it didn't cost £4,700 to insure my car every year!

[Derrener]

I'd go on holiday to Orlando :D :D :D :D :D

[mrwoooooooo]

Had 3 numbers and 1 lucky star last night, 'only' 3 numbers away from winning

[ISniffCheese]

I'd pay to go to university and also buy a nice car and house, oh and can't forget the most important thing.. I'd give some to Derby County!

[Charz777]

Are we talking like 140M?

If so, I'd get myself a nice house, and one for my parents as they hate where they live, and properly give a load to my parents and sister, then generous amounts to my immediate family.

Then I'd start planning my wedding nice and early so me and my boyfriend can settle down and then we'd travel the world and go to every F1 Grand Prix for the season :P

Then I'd buy so many clothes and realise I'd still have too much left over (Even after getting my tennis court put in my garden) that I'd just have to give a load to charity to ease the guilt of my new found paradise.

Although, none of that would be enjoyable without my man, all of that must include him, so I'd rather have him than the money :P

[Ashley]

Buy my parents a new house, a holiday home in California and each of them a new car, as well as one for myself. Invest some into starting a business and some into stocks. Then put the majority of what's left into banks and live off the interest.

[GommeInc]

The couple who won the jackpot have made themselves publicly known. They're hoping to spend some on charities to do with children and spend a lot on friends and family. Basically, they aim to share it.

I imagine that's what most people would do to be honest - share it. As for charity, quite a few charities just want volunteers rather than money these days.

[GoldenMerc]

first thing, buy a lambo

[efq]

148m lottery tickets

[iFlame]

I would split it with the family, move home, get a decent laptop and just save it :]

[Rixion]

Go on an all round the world trip and buy loads of souvenirs and return home to a lovely new mansion!

[Remora]

Hmmm, I'd probably invest the money in some wacky business idea that I have in mind and give the remainder away to charity.

[Cerys]

Hmm..
buy a reasonable sized house - Not a mansion or anything silly like that.. I'd get lonely in there :'(
buy nice things such as good furniture and a good car
get quite a few pets, preferably dogs woo :3
give my close family members 1m each. distant family like, 250,000
give some to charity
take 100,000 of it and go to vegas ;) i'm sure I'm not gonna miss the 100,000 as compared to what money I'd have left, it's almost nothing.

Spend the rest on things like food etc (basically save it all)


*based on 140m*

[Kardan]

148m lottery tickets

Technically, this is quite a stupid idea. Frankly, not many lottery prizes are going to be bigger than 148m, and even if you bought a ticket for each combination, you would only win 10 jackpots in the lotto and 1 jackpot in the euromillions.

Even if you did win a bigger jackpot of the euromillions, you still risk sharing the prize with someone and winning less.

Of course, you probably only meant your answer as a joke, but it's a really silly idea to waste all your money on the lottery again :)

As for what I would by? Everything I've ever wanted really :)

[Derrener]

I would build my dream house

[Sian]

A nice little cottage, with a big garden so I can have some piggies. Probably a holiday home on a tropical island... Haven't thought about much, after those two I wouldn't have a clue!

[:odey:]

I'm totally oblivious to how much the euromillions even is,
But I'm pretty sure I'd be bankrupt again the day after.

I'd hire as many of my fave celebrities as I could, and have a private show, for just me.

[NeverSkem]

A Euromillion Car/House

[Metric1]

live in mansion again xxx

[Mat7]

I'd buy a mansion, some classical cars, a few clubs and the rest would go to charity.

[Icemaniceice]

I don't live in Europe however I would spend it on cigars and star trek collectible stuff

[Grimmauld]

honestly i would see if i still want to go to school or just try my best to enjoy life. id definitely get my grandpa a new car and a rolex, my parents and baby sister a house and a new car, my uncle a new car, and donate to my friend's Children of Vietnam foundation. then sit back and get ready to travel, hopefully with my girlfriend :D

[A4R0N]

never work again and lamborghini reventon
