I love dreaming of what I’d do with hundreds of millions. It’s silly and childish but a glorious daydream. Actually winning is not part of anyone’s life plan.

I like thinking about what id do with it all lol not things like fancy clothes or expensive holidays, feel like a good option would be to buy 300 400 houses so I have something decent to leave my family when im gone

You’d be better off investing it. Can you imagine all that hassle with managing 3-400 houses. Even if you paid agents to do it they’d still be loads of admin. It’d be a full time job!

If you win, you’d need proper financial and tax advice anyhow so they would help you know what your options were to achieve your goals.

I’ve only won £2.50 in the last 2 yrs and I put it on quite regularly. Always just luck dips. Don’t think I’ve ever had more than about £5 win on euromillions and yet I still daydream about winning the jackpot 😂

I don't understand why the jackpot is staying at 208m. Where is all the money from ticket sales the last few draws going?

They cap them at such i big amount, people getting 5 number and 1 star are winning a 3 and 4 million right now so tickets bunch of the tickets are paying them off

Think when it’s capped the rest of the money from ticket sales all goes to the various lottery funded charities

Houses are a investment and less risky, the agents would get payed from the rent been made on them once all are rented out id probably buy an estate agency to handle it all but I do understand id still need do a bunch of stuff and the cost of solicitors would be a far bit per year specially due to me wanting to put all the houses a bunch of cash and maybe some stocks and shares into a living trust say 10 years from now so my kids wouldnt need pay the 40% inheritance tax instead only paying 20% but buy then id expect to have closer to 600 house as the money made from rent would be used to pay costs of running it all plus taxes and what's left would be used to buy more houses

It’s a big old scam really but I do like to have a dream about what I’d do if I won, even though I only play once in a blue moon.

tbh I’d prefer it if they made 208 people millionaires.
