To start a lottery based “what would you do” thread?

[ShittyFingers]

I know it’s been done before but I’d love a slightly different spin on it.

You win the euromillions tonight. The rest of the night will be a blur.

You wake up tomorrow morning - what’s the VERY first thing you do?

No “I’d start a charity” or “I’d set up a dog rescue” etc etc as you wouldn’t do that TOMORROW - what would you do tomorrow?

Personally I’d just go shopping, buy loads of clothes, trainers etc (not designer as I’m not into that shit) have a nice lunch somewhere … go home and start looking on Right Move

I’m impressed with the people spending money beyond a meal! I wouldn’t make any big purchases (and thus blow my savings) until the money cleared in my account.

My understanding is that, once the verification is done, a five figure sum is transferred into your account immediately, pending a consultation with a financial advisor.

I'd ring the estate agents to view this house

It's about 10 miles away so still local for family etc.

Just in case you change your mind I am in the queue behind you though I am not at all sure about the sofas wrapped around the brick pillars.

As tomorrow’s Sunday I would email the estate agents of two houses I have my eye on. Very standard houses but that are extortionate based on where I live.

I don’t think I could do very much tomorrow because you need a few days for verification etc before they transfer an advance to start you off (I worked for a bank who dealt with lottery winners for a bit). Once I had the advance it would be holidays booked and spreadsheets of donations, plans.

If I could diplomatically come up with a way to suggest a divorce whereby we both are set up I would do that, but not sure I would be brave enough.

I won! £6.80 🤣 I need a few more zeros on that one 😂

I won too! £3.20!

Book a fancy hotel somewhere like York for a few days to let it sink in. We have two dd 5 & 9mo so would be nice to get away and let someone else do all the cooking.

Take dd on a girls trip to London to see the frozen musical.

The first thing I would do is jump in a cab and go to my DB and go for a pint in his local and have a meal .
Close by there is a car show room that we walk past and admire the cars when ever we go out together , i would ask him if money was no object which would he like then go and buy it for him .
then i would tell him I had won .

Give up work. By a huge estate or farm. Fence it off, rewild it. Live happily ever after. 🙂

If there is still money left over I wouldnt mind some sort of foundation that looks at how alternative communities for the elderly/the ageing might best be developed, run and funded. Convinced there must be something better than the current system.

Spend all day talking with my husband about what we were going to do .

I'd probably send him out for booze

Ah I should have read the op more carefully. Got carried away.
So just the first then - give up work.
