Ok so I've paid my "stupid tax" and bought a ticket. Who else is planning on how to spend 202m Euros?

I’m buying a block of flats, putting a helter skelter down the middle and filling the basement with custard.

This is why fate makes sure that people like me don’t win the lottery.

I really want to open an adventure training centre and subsidise trips for children from low income families.

Plus my mansion includes slides, ball pools and lego room with someone employed to sort and clean lego so we always have stuff ready for building.

And a circular library with ladders on rails.

I’ve got a baller Rightmove saved list of impractical quirky rural castles ready to go, my work designation letter prepped, and a plan to absolutely beast a celebratory Nando’s

DH and BIL could retire immediately (and me), I'd pay my friends mortgages off, secretly if possible. Buy DBro and some friends somewhere to live. I'd also fund an NHS dentist to set up in our extremely lacking nearest town. At home I'd put in a circular cellar and stock it full of booze and lemonade Grin. The circular library sounds amazing, but we'd need to go outwards first.

Surely that's all noble enough to maybe win me something more than a lucky dip!

It's £172 million not 202, is that the amount in Euros?

tintodeverano2 · 06/10/2021 17:32

Lol I just saw you said euros!

I’d get going with my biotech start-up, looking for a therapy to treat hyperemesis gravidarum!

Well worth doing. If vomiting was an Olympic sport, I think I would have won Gold with DC1.

Love this idea! Will definitely build one and let you slide if I win 🤣
garlictwist · 06/10/2021 17:57

Just bought my ticket.

I'm going to give up work, get a personal chef and live a life pottering about doing what I want.

Siriisatwat · 06/10/2021 18:14

Every day I would wake up and pick a go fund me to fill and more.

Then I wouldn’t worry about a bloody thing ever again. I’d buy my way out of problems and buy the best healthcare for my elderly dad.

Gingerkittykat · 06/10/2021 18:41

I'd buy a mansion and fill it with cats and employ several cleaners to clean up after them.

Kljnmw3459 · 06/10/2021 18:46

I'm buying a house here in the south east and I might even have enough left over for a takeaway......Grin

If you are very, very lucky Grin

Maybe you could try to save a bit on your conveyancing fees?

I’ve bought a ticket. I don’t usually so if I lose it’s your fault. If I win I will buy you a mansion.

WrongKindOfFace · 06/10/2021 18:53

Oh, reading fail, I though the op was buying a mansion, sorry, I can’t buy you one now.

JenniferAllisonPhillipaSue · 06/10/2021 18:55

We're buying a huge piece of land and building a theme park specially designed for disabled children and adults. Once that has taken off and is a thriving business, we'll build adjacent accommodation too.

After three pregnancies, vomiting around the clock for 9 months, even while on the table having my sections, despite trying every anti sickness drug they could throw at me, I’ll be sending you a PM when I win and funding that!

Very happy to have a Mansion @WrongKindOfFace. Have just been looking at some in Tuscany Smile

Theres loads of pigs who cannot be slaughtered atm due to lack of staff. i want to buy a farm to let them live a happy life. Obviously id need ti hire a pig farmer to as i know nothing about raising pigs.

Elderflower14 · 06/10/2021 19:55

I'd buy Ds2 a home so I don't have to worry about him renting. I'd also go to the States and visit all Bruce Springsteens haunts ie The Stone Pony. I'd also buy myself an original Lowry!
