So I guess there's a pretty big lotto pot out there, which brings some questions to mind:
- Would you take the lump sum, or the installment payments?
- Who would you tell?
- Would you try to remain anonymous? Or go on TV and announce it?
- Would you get a financial team of advisors, lawyers, and accountants? Or go it alone and figure it out?
- Anything else you want to add?
- *Oh yeah, and how would you spend it? On some fun stuff, specifically, like what would you splurge on??
I've never bought a lotto ticket, believe it or not. Mid-30's and never bought a ticket, that seems wrong haha.
I find it strange that a couple of you are 'dreaming about the lottery' but have never bought a ticket? I have mine set up on Direct Debit lol, only £8-10 per month depending how many Saturdays are in the month but you never know, I could be a millionaire one day!
1. Probably lump sum
2. My girlfriend and parents for sure. Friends would probably find out but I'd be very aware that some 'friends' would become more friendly than before if you know what I mean.
3. Anonymous, definitely. Don't need to be a target.
4. My cousin is a financial adviser already, would probably get her advice.
5. I'm tired.
6. New cars. A sensible one for day to day, and then a silly one or two. New technology, the best TVs/Computers you could possibly get. I'd purchase a new house and make it a smart home, as it's bloody expensive to do right now. Two Philips Hue lightbulbs for £80?! Pfffttt. And then I'd go on lots of holidays, visit countries and parts of the world I've never been to. Oh and quit my job obviously ha.
