What would you do if you won a million????

[Tiger Jay]

What a question?

I had a strange dream last night (one of many), that I won a million quid.

Great eh?

Mmmmmmmm. Well it turned in to a nightmare where I found myself being chased around the country after my spends!

Problem was the company I won the million from, wouldn't let me give it away to anyone. Not family, friends, or charity!!!

So,

What would you do with a million if you were not allowed to give some away to anyone???

Me?

I haven't got a clue! But may be you guys will give me a few ideas eh?

Just for fun that is!!

The world's your oyster, anything goes!

Quite funny really..my OH's friend won a few million on the lottery a while ago but tbh his life hasn't changed that much.
Same old places, same old people, but now they like him so much more.
I didn't like him that much in the first place tbh but have stayed really good friends with his ex.
I think it is so much harder for her.
She is the one who has to cope with the "what if's?????????"
I'm so over what if's.
Maybe we should all take a leaf out of that girls book eh?

I would buy a detached house!
Can't say anymore in case next door is a geek:lol:

 

[cobweb]

I would buy my mums council house for her, so she can start having some fun instead of paying an interest only mortgage because she was too old for a normal one.

Also i would Buy my two daughters a house each because when they are old enough, they wont be able to afford one.

and for me........ a holiday home on Zakynthos:green:

 

[pure]

• Buy a bigger house
• A boat
• several holidays
• a salon
• horses for me and my daughter
• tummy tuck!!

Not much eh!!! :lol:

 

[joe90]

I would love to open my own Spa but if I couldn't do that I would be chuffed as a chocolate frog to have my own salon.

 

[jac extreme]

Run away!!!!!!!:lol::lol:

 

[michelle g]

i think i would invest in properties and businesses, also have lot's of holidays.

 

[Prionace]

I think i would pay my morgage and then set up my business. I would probably import and represent Akzentz and hopefully become an educator, but that's my dream anyway, the million would def make it happen faster!

 

[EllaX]

easy - but a house - im desperate to get on the property ladder! x

 

[izzidoll]

Count it!!!!

Seriously, of course you would give some away to pay off family's mortgages etc.

TBH I don't think I would move house...I love my house & garden, but it would be great to have the cashflow to do all the improvements I want to do all at once, instead of bit by bit.

I don't think I would give up my work either.......but I wouldn't mind taking some unpaid leave for more holidays!!!

Hubby probably wouldn't give up his work either....but more holidays would relieve any stress he had too.

So the only purchase I could think of would be a Villa somewhere in the sun to have all these holidays in.


I am going to have to start buying lottery tickets now !!!:lol:

Actually.... i wouldnt think there is THAT much you can do with a million pounds these days - considering an average 3 bed house in london will cost you £350,000....

So if I had a million pounds.. i would:

- buy a house
- buy a car
- buy a business

thats how far my million would reach i think....

I would do something I've always said i would do if I won a million, I would buy the massive house down the road on the seafront and convert it into a safe house for children who have or are being abused.

Obviously, as things are at the moment I would have to live there too, in the West Wing!!

A million quid's a lot of money.

First things first, I'd have to give all my clothes and shoes to the charity shop and start afresh.

Secondly, I'd give my home a total makeover. Better still, I'd get the guys from 30 Minute Makeover to re-style it completely.

Thirdly, a luxurious holiday to the kind of place only dreams are made of.

If there's any change left out of that lot, I'd treat myself to a makeover ... a nip here, a tuck there .....

You've gotta be in it, to win it, so I'll keep on wishing my numbers come up on the lottery!!!

[Tricky]

Well I would say that I would buy myself a house, pay the rest of the mortgage off for my 2 elder sisters houses, buy my Mam a house down here, and enjoy myself with whatevers left ...

But I suppose I will never know what I would do til I was in that situation, but my appraoch probably would be ... you started with nothing, so have a bloomin' good time!!

 

[Bagpuss]

all i would like is enough to clear the mortgage....i think too much money takes your dreams away. I like saving £10 in a pot every week for that something special...makes it mean so much more. I'm not that keen on money...or should i say too much money. xx
