    I've thought about this one a few times.

    If I won 10 millions, I'd give a million each to my folks, a million each to my two brothers; that's 4 million gone. I'd split a million between my friends, and I'd give a million to charity, leaving me with 4 million, which is more than enough.

    Keeping it secret would mean I couldn't do any of the above, so unfortunately I'd have to tell the world.

    Im your friend... right .
    Thanks buddy!

    I wouldn't tell anybody. Going public is asking for troubles IMO.

    Most sickening lotto winner ever IMO.

    Why? Because his old man's pretty good at his job? Because he's a student? Because he's from Louth? I really don't undersatnd the logic of that statement.

    If you want really sickening, how about the woman from Galway who won something like £3 million when the lotto wasn't going too long. She was in her 60s or 70s and said that she was going to by a used car and a few new sheep. That to me is sickening, somebody esle could have put the money to better use, but some young fella winning now has a whole new life ahead of him because of his good fortune.

    Impossible.

    How is it impossible to do something for as long as possible? By definition it's impossible for something possible to be impossible.

    Forget about your friends! 5 million is better than 4 million.

    If I won there is no way I'd go public with it, that's just asking for trouble.

    Of course, if I won I'd die of shock as I never play.

    Fair play to the young guy who won, and good luck to him. He played the game just like loads of others, and won. He beat the huge odds. Is it his fault that he has a famous dad? (I've never heard of his dad by the way!)
