EuroMillions... next week estimated jackpot.

Is it me or is that a fairly obscene amount of money to win?

It would change your lifestyle somewhat, eh?

would it actually be fun or a severe burden to win THAT much money.

Surely that much money = power, not just wealth!

No doubt many millions have pondered just what they would do IF..

My main concerns would be:-
Close family & their safety. Surely it is impossible to keep this much money a secret?
Would they become targets for whatever reason?

Would you be able to keep lifelong friends?

On a different note.
I also would have to think hard about turning up to work on monday. For about a nanosecond.

Of course I would go in.

To put it up for sale.

Hang on.. could I be bothered to even do that?

Oh the problems of sooo much money.

Option 1:

buy 100 peerages from New Labour for your friends and take over the House of Lords.

Option 2:

you'd have just enough to put down a deposit on the Naim CDS777.....

Smile on both these, of course!

That would be a good school teacher then? They come quite a bit cheaper than £100 million.

Make that a mere 125 MILLION pounds...

Yikes.

My calculator stops at 99 million....
