What have you got in your life worth more than £10 million?

[Maybethisyearornext]

On my way to the hospital this morning, if I had been given a choice between £10 million and a clear biopsy, I would have chosen the negative biopsy result, which I now have!

When I was in my 20s and told I was infertile, if I often thought if I was given the choice between £10 million and motherhood, I would chose motherhood, which I then got in my 30s, and still have (adult children now!)

So I have my family I thought I would never have, and i have decades left with them, rather than the few months I was warned might be all that was left.

I have a grand total of £20 million in my pocket this morning! (well, not in cash - but in value!)

What have you got worth more than gold? Lets have a happy thread xx

Lovely thread OP, I’m pleased you got the all clear.

We need perspective like this at times. I’m
the same as most, no amount of money could bring me more happiness than my children. DH second of course, though a billion and I might sell him… 😂

Congratulations on your result. These things are life changing in terms of your mentality (for most of us!).

I was a bit of a moaner at times, then I gave birth to a very poorly baby with not much expected chance of survival past her first month. I promised to myself and whatever is out there that I would live every day in the now and enjoy everything if she could just survive. She did live and so do I.

My children are worth more than £10 million 100 times over.

My DH, children and my parents.

Although I will also say that old adage that "health is wealth". I've been suffering from the aftermath of a head injury and post concussion syndrome then a medication induced neurological involuntary movement disorder for a decade, and I'd literally give someone £10m in exchange for good health. Essentially I think life is hard going without good health. Now I'm going through perimenopause, I'm realising this even more than ever.

I'd give anything to have rude health again 😔 (yes, even £10 million!)

Great news on your result, OP too 👏 ❤️✨️

My grandson I love him so much it's ridiculous💙

My husband sometimes worries if we closed windows or remembered to lock doors whenever we are out. We’ve always remembered but I’ve never got worried about it if I’m out with my dogs and baby because anything else someone can steal from me and I won’t care. It’s my dogs and baby who are priceless to me. And my husband!!

I have to confess I opened this thread very confused because adding up everything wouldn’t even get me close to £1M, let alone £10M; but what a lovely idea.

I’d give up the chance for any money as long as it meant I could be a mum.

Likewise, my friends and my brother, SIL, and niece/nephew; they’re worth the world to me and I wouldn’t give them up for anything.

I’m childfree by choice and I just did a test with myself - if I was offered £10m to have children, what would I do? I’d have to turn down the £10m and keep my current lifestyle. So I guess the answer is that? And everything that comes along with it - autonomy, freedom, my career, dogs, partner, spontaneity

My DH and my health. And my very small but lovely extended family. All worth more than any sum of money.

This thread is bringing a tear to my eye (in a good way). Daughters, husband, mother, brother, memories of my Dad. Everyone’s health.

Congratulations on your excellent news OP.

My family.

Same. We are celebrating our 43rd wedding anniversary next month.

Dh and my dc, obviously.
But also, the extremely good fortune of having had a safe, comfortable, supportive upbringing in a happy family in a nice area of a relatively wealthy and secure country. Pretty much everything that's good in my life now is a result of that, in one way or another.

Thank you for this.. I got a roof ove rmy head, my health, my children, and my piece of mind(abusive ex). It's been hard couple of years but I am grateful to God who has been helping each step of the day

Swap dogs for cats and I have to agree with you.

But I can honour the people who want the exact opposite. @junerella , it sounds like your little one gave you two gifts!

My DD, my DH.

@Circularbreathing6789 it probably came back naturally when my depression lifted, but I did also buy loads of cheap ready made craft kits, Paint by Numbers, even kids colouring books where I didn't have to make any creative decisions actually really helped.

I remember I finished a paint by numbers and it looked just like a real painting, I felt the same satisfaction and pride as if I'd drawn it myself, so that sort of reminded me of that feeling.

Congratulations! Some great news.

Ok, I've got DH - wouldn't swop him for £10m. Kids - wouldn't swap them.
My optimistic mindset - I don't want £10m if it comes with poor mental health. I'm worth £30million at a rough count.

I'd sell you the dog or the house for £10m. I'm fond of both, but they are replaceable. 😁

Family. However I reckon I could be seriously tempted to flog my husband for 10 mil. 20 mil and I’d deffo put him on EBay.

Oh of course - it’s lovely that others here are getting that feeling from their families. I’m happy for them and OP!

Excluding my children and my mum, immediate family it’s my beloved dog. I genuinely mean it when I say he’s not for sale for any amount of money, no way! And I’d happily give up that money if I could reverse his blindness (he’s only 7 and going blind via glaucoma). He’s just the best and my 16yr old DD anxious gets so much from owning a pet, nothing can match it

My children and my health. I would have given the £10 million to save my partner but sadly that wasn’t to be.

Beautiful idea for a thread ❤️ definitely dog and family!

My children, my mum and some of my friends.

A close friend of mine has terminal cancer and she is reaching the end of the road. I would happily give up £10million to guarantee her a few more years with her family.

resurrecting this thread because it is a happy read. Please add happy posts only and keep it nice xx
