€152 Million Jackpot question

smemon · 10-11-2006 11:09PM

whats all this rubbish about giving it all away and only keeping a few mill :rolleyes:

i'd buy a yacht, a few ferrari's and build a mini palace out in the country with a private helicopter.

I'd also buy a private learjet if i'd cash left over :cool:

there you go, 150m gone in a few seconds. It's nothing nowadays. You're not rich unless you're a BILLIONAIRE.

Buy a new car.. a reasonably nice one

Buy a house for me and the gf, and new houses for the family, give money to friends.

And see where it goes from there!

Plug · 10-11-2006 11:37PM

Next week I think you only have to get 5 numbers.

So seriously what would be the first thing you'd do?

I'd buy a bugatti.

Thrill · 10-11-2006 11:47PM

I'd kiss Ireland goodbye for a few years if i won. I would travel the world (first class) and see and experience everything possible. No way would i stick around here.

mclaren SLR would be ordered methinks, and build a garage to park it in too.

biko · 11-11-2006 12:11AM

I'd buy Tetiaroa from Marlon Brandons wife. Me and Evangeline Lilly would be very happy there I think.

from Guardian

Next week's prize is an estimated £120 million, and if no-one picks the five winning numbers and two Lucky Stars, the cash will be distributed among the next tier of winners.

There were 12 winners of the next tier tonight, they got over €600,000.

Last week me and the lads in college all did the euro millions and agreed if one of us won it we would give all the others half a million. We all shook hands on it and agreed when we noticed one of the lads hadn't shook at all...

...needless to say he is from Cavan.

He just stood there going "Whoa there lads hang on now HALF A MILLION, do i have to give half a million!!"

Now I know ppl say Cavan men are mean but ffs not parting with money he doesnt even posses!!!!111

20 minutes later we had all signed a contract binding us to the agreement.

Mean cavan bast......

And you wanted him to part with money he didn't possess? Sounds like you were all drunk to me:).

Sjones said something similar to me in the past....

And also my GF got 2 numbers and 2 stars tonight...I can now retire (to bed)

I dont think you're allowed remain annonymous. Thats why i will never do the euro milions. I'd rather be a happy go lucky nobody than have my ugly mug plastered in the feckin sun etc. every few days. Thanks but no thanks.

mike65 · 11-11-2006 11:18AM

Of course you can remain annoy-mouse, its just hard to when you pull up outside the house in a Bentley Arnage when you live in a semi-d! Either that or some relation will have a big gob on them.

I know you can remain anonymous for the Irish Lotto but I heard that it's in the Terms and Conditions of the Euromillions that you have to go public. Can't seem to find it online though. It's the reason my mam doesn't do it, she reckons no amount of money is worth having to worry about kidnap threats/security.

Welldone your GF is the lucky winner of €29.

Tom Dunne · 11-11-2006 01:13PM

I have it planned out in my head for when I win the big one (probably next week, at this stage).

I wouldn't move house, for now I am happy with my current place. I would, however, buy somewhere hot (south of France, maybe) and somewhere cold (e.g. Colorado). I would also clear friends/family mortgage. I would also hire two drivers, so I would never have to drive anywhere again and if I wanted to stop for a pint somewhere, I could (it's the little things).

I would also set up a charitable trust where I could determine what money is donated where. I would start off in the locality and donate to the local school, GAA and soccer clubs, etc. In parallel to that, I would set up an investment fund to make more money. It's not greed, it's common sense. Money makes money, and all that.

So, when you hear it has been won in Ireland next week, and Tom Dunne doesn't post as frequently on Boards.ie any more, you know what has happened.:D

faceman · 11-11-2006 01:14PM

Did you see yer man from cork on tv3 news yesterday? Major LOL. "so what would you do sir if you won?"

"ah jaysus, id buy one of those big fancy cars. what are they called again? [long pause] A Jaguar!"

Steak · 11-11-2006 01:44PM

I'd try and remain anonymous, it'd be extremely hard though. you'd have to tell people that you won a couple of hundred thousand or a million or something, because you can't go from driving around in a piece of shít car to driving about in a gleaming new Ferrari, know what I mean?

chillywilly · 11-11-2006 05:07PM

Plug · 11-11-2006 06:27PM

You shouldn't be you didn't do it.

Riamfada · 11-11-2006 07:29PM

didnt win this week. Perhaps next week. One more week of this torturous hell before the dissapointment in finding out I have another on Friday

plonk · 11-11-2006 07:37PM

Ya but the chances of winning big next week are even bigger as if the jackpot isnt won the people in next tier ie 5+1 the jackpot is split between them
