I suppose I would look forward to it if I played the idiot tax, oh wait I do!
If you think the odds are crazy for the UK/ Euro millions the CA lotto is ridiculous, plus if you actually win you don't get the full pay out at once, they spread it out over a lifetime or you take a vastly reduced lump sum. Blatant f

Out of curiosity and boredom the other day I actually took the time to prepare a list and actual cost prices for my fleet of cars which I'd purchase should I ever win the lottery. I then added the ones that I wasn't sure about but have always liked (ie do you need a mid 90's AM Vantage when you've already got a DB7 Volante and a Vanquish?) and then some cars for the family and then the fleet of ultra expensive exotics such as Bugatti EB110 and Koeniggsegg.
I was quite surprised that the first part of the list came to just 32 cars (2 of which I already own) and a mere 1.5m. The exotics list (about 12 of them) came to another 2.7m, the ones I wasn't sure about came to a nice £370k, and the cars for the family came to about 300k. I then remembered I also wanted a Gumpert Apollo and that promptly put the list just over £5m and a total of 54 cars.
Hmm its nice to dream isn't it? I think I'd need an aircraft hangar nicked from heathrow to store the bloody things.
I should mention I don't even bother playing the lottery...

i will be buying a couple of tickets.
its my mate's leaving do this weekend [moving abroad] so if i win he's getting the best send off ever.
my dad has lent me his car whilst on holiday as mine has died, so the first major purchase will be a brand new bentley brooklands will all the boxes ticked, to be waiting on the drive ready to take him and mum house hunting on their return. i think i'll replace the snotter with an f355gtb in tdf blue/tan leather.
big charidee donation, cash to friends and family, then i'm off round the world.

First off, thank you all for increasing my winnings tonight by buying tickets.
I would give the missus 10million and tell her to sort out a house. (She's good with things like that, real attention to detail!)
I would take 10 Million and go shopping.
Veyron
Zonda Roadster
Lambo 670-4
CCXR
Cayenne (gotta have something to carry a few mates in!)
Probably a few cars to mod as well
Then I am going to light a fine cuban cigar and laugh for a few days.

Thanks for all your donations towards my jackpot prize fund, I'll think of you as I'm snorting coke off the tits of a porn star in the Bunny Ranch tomorrow 
You jest but strangely enough a friends' sister who is well known to me, won just over £4M on the lotto some ten years ago. She now has no houses, cars, lifestyle, and money now and lives in a flat. Same attraction to the white stuff and the delirious decision making that accompanies it. 
On the plus side, she does have a new motorway up her nose that has since been widened to accommodate the extra traffic
