What would it be?

Mine would be robbing a bank I think. Plenty of money to keep me going

Although you might get away with it ,the cash would be destroyed as soon as you walk out the door unfortunately.

Pfft. I said one single crime. You get away with the entire thing. So no ink Grin

There are a number of people currently in prison whom I’d like to walk in and kill. Slowly. The problem would be choosing between them.

Nooo- robbing banks is so 1990. You won’t be able to spend the cash coz money laundering laws. Do an online bank transfer fraud instead.

Robbing a bank is genius. I'd probably go for a high-end jewellery store.

HerrenaHarridan · 20/02/2023 13:39

I can think of a number of horribly abusive men I would quietly push off a cliff if I knew I could get away with it

Yes, I agree. A few million would do.

JamSandle · 20/02/2023 13:45

Definitely rob a bank for me too.

Witsendwilly · 20/02/2023 13:47

Fiddle a lottery win. Much less physical effort than robbing a bank and I would go for the x number of pounds a month option rather than a lump sum that I would blow in five years and probably end up eating and drinking myself to death or crashing a fast car or motorbike.

Mine would be murder.

Allschoolsareartschools · 20/02/2023 13:51

A shoplifting pass for life...

MajorCarolDanvers · 20/02/2023 13:52

Technical fraud that would enable me to win the Euromillions when its in the £150 million + range.

LadyChatterlysLover · 20/02/2023 13:55

Can't decide between murder or a rigged euromillions win when it's the big big jackpot. I think maybe the win has the edge.

I'd like to steal a road painter and paint a yellow box junction at the end of my road. Ideally there would be a roundabout but that sounds like more effort.

wigwoowig · 20/02/2023 13:57

The murder ones are a bit.... scary 😂 could you all really kill another human? How would you do it?

Holshicup · 20/02/2023 13:57

Would have a go firing a gun at a certain country's leader

Charliescat · 20/02/2023 14:04

Hack all the credit card and loan companies to wipe out everyone’s debts

BooseysMom · 20/02/2023 14:12

Definitely murder..not saying who!!

Doihavetogotoworkdotcom1 · 20/02/2023 14:33

I would kill my neighbours

radiatorflush · 20/02/2023 14:35

A specific Murder.

Ladyofthesea · 20/02/2023 14:35

My first thought was murder. Only after reading the comments I wondered if robbing would be a more positive idea. Still leaning towards murder though. Specific person, not murder in general.

InBerlin · 20/02/2023 14:51

Open all the cages and let the pigs and chickens run free.

stairgates · 20/02/2023 14:54

Siphoning off 1p from every account in the world which has never been overdrawn😁

Btjdkfnn · 20/02/2023 14:56
