Euromillionare today

    Sounds mad, but I do so...

    Today I am going to play Eurolotto. Just now I said to myself if I would win I would buy 10 houses for 10 families

    My criteria are the following
    - married couple
    - one or more children
    - first time buyers
    - both working last two years (except maternity leave)

    I am seriously about that. Plus for another half of win I would set up my own charity fund.

    But I would like to ask someone who could win tonight to buy house for my family. 300000 Euro from 90 millions is just nothing I'd say :)

    I really hope that someone from Ireland will win but I am not sure that someone will buy house for me. I would anyway.

    My good friend Turd Ferguson desperately needs an imagination transplant but the operation is so expensive. If you could spare a few of your Euromillions, it would really help. Thanks.

    I'd buy some spelling and grammar classes if I were you :p

    People have been slipping on the YORE MA posts recently. There should be one in every thread...I suggest changing the charter to make that a rule.

    Euro for the baby?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,698 ✭✭✭Dinter


    I'd buy lots of houses that I'd rent out to people, who've never worked or done anything to really improve their lot, for minimal sums. I'd also maintain them for free and pay some of their bills for heat, bin charges etc. I might give them an allowance every week as well to pay for necessities.

    I just know that my faith in them would spur them to improve their condition and after a short while I could re rent the property to other needful people. It's not like they'd sit there and atrophy watching day time tv all day and squander the opportunity I gave them.

    To Homer

    I am not Irish national so in my posts could be some grammar mistakes :)

    Eh wtf? It used to be penny for the babby and now it's a Euro. That should be included when calculating the level of inflation.

    90million?


    Well there's 10 million off to Cancer Research anyway.


    as for buying 10 houses? sure that's only 10..what about the rest?
    not really fair..how do ya pick the people? I'm sure there's loads that fit that criteria..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    The fairest course of action is to split the cash into 3. One half for me and my half. A quarter for her to dish out to family and friends however she so desired, and a quarter for me to do the same.

    I'm pretty sure 22.5 million would pay off mortgages for my entire extended family as well as buy houses for my close mates. My immediate family would get enough cash to not have to work for about ten years and my parents could retire in ridiculous luxury.

    I'd be the guy that everyone wanted at the pub because I'd be more than happy to pay for all the rounds all night every time I went out.

    I'd have people who I know apply to me in writing how much they want and what they want it for. Then I will weigh it up in my head and see if they are worthy.

    I'd host a Boards Beers in Vegas. Of course, you'd all have to pay your own way over and buy all your own drinks, but it's the thought that counts.

    Dear Serge,

    Good news. Last week I winned African Lottery. Is same as europa lottery, only greatly bigger. I now have 50 millions. Because of tax I need to find some kind people like you to help me.

    I will buy you house for 500,000 if you can look after 10 millions for me. All I need is for you to send to me your bank account details, your address and your data of birth.

    Please respond quickly because the tax will be deducted very soon.

    Kindly sir,
    John Onuaku

    I'll guard it while you fetch the matches and petrol. Take your time. It'll be safe with me.

    If i won the Lotto i would buy tons of milk and make a whopping profit from it. Only downside is it would take me a few weeks to sell it all but it would be worth the wait. I would also have an operation so i could walk backwards. How cool would that be!! A real party piece


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,528 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    A boardsie syndicate is the way to go thus improving on your chances of winning. Then we can have 100 Euro each after we win it and at the same time piss people off for splitting so much money in that manner.

    If that fails then we can turn it into a crime syndicate masked as a trade union.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 70 ✭✭Serge


    Sorry lads i didnt win nothing, will keep trying
