I actually wouldn't, I think it's fair to say if I won I'd never be back cos I'd be flying planes or having sex or both constantly. |
So you are going to join the mile high club if you win then??? :D |

Anyone edoing this lottery?
If you won £125 million what would you buy?
I'd buy one of those Old people mobility buggys and pimp it to the max! Chrome spinners, underglow neon lighting, hydraulic kit, speakers and NOS kit then give it away in a prize draw to some Old person so he can be pimpin when he pops down to the shops!
I'd probably give £20mil to charity, £20 mil to my parents, £10 mil to my gf and £10 mil to my sister. That leaves me with 65 mil for me....dunno what i'd do! |
Carmen Electra and Heidi Klum.

If you win the jackpot, you get it in one lump sum and pay no tax on it.
Ive been playing the last few weeks and had no luck |

Taken off MSN
If you won tonight’s EuroMillions lotto jackpot and didn’t have to share the winnings, you’d be at least £125 million better off.
All that money, just like that. Richer than the Osbournes in one fell swoop (they’re worth a paltry £100 million according to the 2005 Sunday Times Rich List).
You’d even be richer than Posh and Becks, who are worth just £75 million in the Rich List.
Based on The Sunday Times Rich List from 2005, with £125 million in your bank account, you’d be:
Roughly as wealthy as Eric Clapton and Phil Collins
Worth about as much as Ringo Star, but lagging behind Sir Paul McCartney (£800 million net worth)
Richer than David Bowie (£120m) and Earl Spencer ££100m)
You’d rank at 350 on The Sunday Times Rich List, not too bad for an average punter, but well behind the number one spot, steel baron Lakshmi Mittal, who is worth a staggering £14.8 billion.
Spending it
Both Sharon Osbourne and Posh are notorious shoppers. But with £125 million in your pocket, you could afford to buy most shops, not just the goods inside.
What would you do with all that money? It’s time to think big …
Property
Well, with £125 million, you could buy the UK’s most expensive home in the gentrified surrounds of Surrey.
It last sold for £70 million, so that would leave plenty of cash to hire staff to clean and maintain the 107-room property.
For a mere £810,000 you could pick up a Bugatti Veyron, the world’s most expensive car, and park it in the garage of your Surrey mansion.
You’d even have the money to insure it and get it professionally cleaned, which will come in handy because it’s also the world’s fastest car.
Add some bling
Kevin Peterson splashed out on a £50,000 diamond stud, but with those millions you could splash out and buy a matching pair.
The 112 carat Hope Diamond would be slightly out of your league – its estimated value is billions of US dollars – but you could easily drop a million or two on something sparkly.
Add some bling to your ring with the world’s most expensive mobile phone. Designed by a luxury accessories maker in Austria, the phone has sections of pure gold as well as 2,950 blue diamonds embedded into the cover.
That will set you back £500,000, not including network or call charges.
Living off the interest
Putting the winnings into an average savings account paying about 5% interest, would earn almost £17,000 interest every day – that’s more than £6 million a year.
Of course, the Chancellor would take about half of that interest in tax, so moving to the tax haven of Monaco could be wise. |

It kinda makes me sick that one person could potentially get all this. I hope there's at least 50 winners to make it more fair. But anyway, what I'd do with that money:
***
Make my parents take retirement, give them £10m
Give £5m to my brothers and tell them to take the rest of their life off!
£2m - Buy my aunt a decent house
By myself one or 2 decent cars
Pay most of my friends tuition dees and debts.
Buy a houes in LA and Tokyo and London (£40m) - and really make them nice
Go on a long holiday with my girlfriend (£1m)
Go shopping for a day £1 million (64 million so far)
Put the rest in the bank and take out the intrest each week and spend as I please?
As I'm typing this, I just can't believe how much money it is. It's obscene, and I worry about who will win it. |
