    On a saturday morning....

    You compose yourself....make a nice fry....

    And then you read...

    This

    If you're like me, just reading this made you feel a rollercoaster of emotions.

    The question is...in the immediate 48 hours after (not the following years etc) what do you do?

    I dunno.. I'd be fairly freaked out at the thought of being suddenly super-rich. Probably hold off telling anyone for as long as I could and make sure I had a person lined up to deal with all the crap that comes with winning.

    I felt like I had broken into a secret club just reading that. I also kinda felt that I can now never win because I've read that under false pretences.

    I'll look after any of your winnings. I'll keep them "safe"

    actually i've thought about it and decided i wouldn't mind having money.

    Would take myself out for a short walk then decide to find a quite pub to ' reflect ' ....only to realise I had left my wallet at home .

    Its so depressing knowing that I probably won't ever get that book handed to me, along with my big fat cheque.

    You Boxtard...you absoloute boxtard..

    Roller coaster of emotions reading it? It's more like stepping off into an elevator shaft of emotions...down down down down doooowwwwn

    What is it you are asking? What one should do in the immediate 48 hours after reading that brochure or in the 48 hours after actually winning a substantial amount of money?

    In the immediate 48 hours, apart from claiming the money, you probably do whatever your current financial situation allows you to do. The lottery winnings will not be in your account for several days.

    Also, what is all the rubbish about not being able to win now that you have read that brochure? I have just read that brochure and I am damned sure that I haven't prevented myself from winning. By tickets. You have a chance.
    It is R A N D O M

    Stop being so negative and read The Secret. Ok, so it is rubbish and really difficult to get through without falling asleep but it's ethos is that if you think positively, things will happen. If you think negatively, only bad things happen.
    Paranoid? You will be...

    There's too much to post. It's a booklet offering advice for those who have won the lotto.
