Won £30 on the lottery last night
Ask me anything
😂

I think Camelot (or the lottery organiser in your country) should arrange a big cheque photo opportunity with Champagne with £30 written on the cheque.

@Zilla1 - good choice. We're getting a full stable of names here! Maybe we could persuade @MNHQ to splash out?

Sorry everyone! The shock of winning made me fall asleep super early! 😂

YOU couldn’t get to sleep ?! Spare a moment for all of us who were so astonished and pleased for you (plus some concerns obvs). Don’t know about everyone else but I’ve been humbled that you shared your news but bloody hell it’s a big load for all of us to carry around now too.

It's understandable, it'll take you a while to adjust.

My question is have you had lots of 'begging' letters yet?

Don’t let it change your personality and I would keep it a secret from all but a handful of people you trust.

I'm really, REALLY pissed off this thread.

It's always the same, yesterday she was all 'I'm not going to change, my family are the only thing that matter', 'it's just money' and now she taken her thirty quid and is nowhere to be seen. I hope you're proud of yourself OP.

handsspace we saw it coming though didn’t we? No way you can win such a sum and it not change you. But let’s be charitable op is no doubt deep in financial planning, investments and purchases etc. MN may have to take a back seat for some time. Poor op, eh?

Unbelievable but I’ve just won £3.90 (euromillions) and £25 (premium bonds). Not quite the heady £30 of op but I’m now going to reread this thread for my own purposes in how to handle all of this.

I work in a primary school. We are very tight for space with an ever increasing school roll, and budgets have been slashed exponentially.
Will you be donating funds to your old school, or current local school?
I am sure you can do so anonymously

@Millionaireinthemaking thanks to you I tried it this week … and I won premium bonds !!! Many thanks for this thread has brought me so much confidence that one day I could be you. !!!

Ps £25 :) what shall I do!

I think we've confused @PerciphonePuma

@HeronLanyon I'll give her the benefit of the doubt then.

How much do you plan to pass on to any children or future children to ensure they don't resent your massive windfall?

I’m guessing this thread will be deleted soon due to ‘privacy concerns’.
The last thing OP needs is to be hounded by MNetters hoping for a handout...
