'Retro' Lottery conversations

[saltyman]

That's great salty, must be a big weight lifted to have the debts paid off

certainly did, came at a really low point in my life, just in time.........wife had quit her job to care for her cancer stricken grandad....i had already been doing 100hr weeks to keep ourselves fed and watered!

and my brother had been sacked just before xmas from his job with others so that his boss could keep his family in work....

id of loved to of spent my cash on fast cars and holidays but my prioritys were such at the time, i never really noticed having the cash. just a series of numbers came into my account.......and lots off numbers came off my debt!

stress free now, any overtime goes on toys, as my basic wage covers our household bills now. something i dreamed of one day.

pay my mortgage,parents and sisters mortgages off.finish my house, buy a big turbo escossie and go surfing for a month.still work tho and get my xr2 acid dibbed and painted,then spend loadsa time at cadwell.



but most inprtantly,buy another pace,a rc100 this time tho

 

[lewis1641]

i'd spend most on drugs and women.

the rest i would just waste

Don't think people would get much interest on £1m these days. I'm sure the investments we make at work don't generate much interest, even long term.

my bruv won £1,200,000 pretty sure he says he gets £100 a day interest just having it in one account.

id of thought it would of been more than that?

Don't keep it one account ... if the bank goes under only the first 30k (or so) is backed by the government. Please tell me he's had some decent financial advice.

£100 / day is around £25k / year, so around 2.5% interest (ignoring compounding, keeping it simple)

£100 a day isnt to be taken lightly.

Just think of being able to spend £100 a day with no worries!

That makes it all the more special if you and your family were in need of it, really pleased for you Sounds like you have been very sensible too, more or less what i'd do with the money.

 

[Pickle]

I think most deep down would sensible if given a big wedge of cash.

I made some money through property. Cleared all my debts with a bit left over for a deposit on a house.

I now live life with a strict rule. If I cant afford it outright, then dont buy it. No more credit cards or HP here.
