Lottery winners who don't spend all of their winnings

[Krusty]

most peoples common sence goes out the window when they win
these people have kept their
which is nice

Something you should never do when you win the lottery is tell everyone, including some friends and some family. Not because you become a prime target to be mugged or robbed, it's because you will begin the see to insides of the people you know. They practically begin begging to you and will drop at hints at every instance possible. 'Oh we're getting a new extension soon, it's really breaking the bank, I have no idea what to do and how we're going to pay for it' - Hints like that

I haven't won the Lotto obviously, but I've read that in at least two books, and I think it's very sensible.

I'd tell my close family and a few of friends, however I wouldn't say I'd won the lottery to anyone else, you'd lose your friends and they'd begin begging

i'd tell my friends at school and i wouldnt care if anyone else found out, im clever enough to know when people are acting different than they usually should

people should do what they want with their money.

but seeing as much of the world's economy is in a questionable state, the patriotic thing would be to indulge.

I think most people would be 'SPEND SPEND SPEND' I think that's partly why people do the lottery is it not?

The people who carry on with their 'normal lives' do so probably because they find out that money doesn't bridge every gap and fix every problem in ones life.

I wouldn't go mad on spending, I'd like pay off the house of course, buy some new things which I need around the house and then just leave the money, not let the money run my life.

I'd spend whatever I wanted, I'd live off the interest.

If my family won the lottery we'd either move house for a nicer house although our house is excellent Victorian archtecure anyway or we'd rip out all the current things in the house and have the whole thing done up, new plastering, new skirting boards, new doors the whole lot because there's certain bits we don't like such as some of the white wooden panelling going around the living room walls

Person in question isn't spending it as hes dying though - or so the Metro said.

I believe it said that he would give it all up to be healthy, it didn't directly mention that he isn't spending it.
