EuroMillions 12th Feb: £113M
Discussion
I was under the impression they had a capped amount where if the jackpot wasnt won, it was spread down to the next level?
And as a more general, is £113M too much?
My starter for 10 is if you think 113m is too much, you are lacking:
1) Imagination
2) Friends
3) Family
4) Compassion for charity
I'd start by giving all my friends and family £500,000 each/per couple (or equivalent gifts/houses/cars, etc)
The floor is yours folks

113m is definatly not to much, thats the whole point of the lottery to be stupidly rich.
Id buy amazing houses, cars, bikes and see everywhere in the world i would like to.
Also pay off all my friends and families debt and make sure they are all comfortable.
Also set up 100 million of it into a bank account with at least 3-4% interest rate and have the interest pumped into charities for ever. Much better then giving them a lump sum that when they spend it is gone, Bristol dogs home would never have to worry about money again :-D

I dunno, it is a hell of a lot of money, I don't think there are a lot of people in this country with over £100M in liquid assets, a lot of the wealth of the "rich list" (although I know that £100M wouldn't even get you in The Times) is tied up in property, companies etc.Even a 3% return would get you almost £60K a week, or £250K/month in interest without touching the capital.
Personally, I'd set myself up with a nice base in the UK and start travelling the world to see all those places I'll probably never be able to see with a 9 to 5 job and and allocation of a max 2-week holiday per year.
"It wouldn't change me"
Yeah, like hell it wouldn't
113 million my lucky number....... I'll be buying a ticket next week and can spend every penny easily 
I'd make my friends happy as I'd f
k off and not see them again..............
lol seriously I'd bung my good friends a load of cash to pay off their debts/mortgages but would also book us all on a great road trip and know they would all turn up in new supercars with the mortgage etc still in place that's why they are my friends!!

I wouldn't let it change me. I'd probably go part time and live off the interest.
Oh god, I hope you're joking.Edited by 911motorsport on Saturday 6th February 12:32
You get one life, and you're going to leave it all in the bank and live off the 60k a week? A portsmouth footballer wage..
I doubt it

This is the thing
Why cant someone like us win for a change, I'd just love to see someone win who got in the paers for going out and buying several huge houses in various nice places around the world, a fleet of exotica and handing out cash to friends family etc
The closest weve had so far is that Lee Ryan right back at the start (who did time just after his wife won?) - they showed him having got a 'copter and flying off to the shops on a saturday - class, but not quite there
Then that other chav knob (name esacpes me?) who turned his back garden into a demolition derby and snorted half the cash up his nose
Worse still are the constant stream of "I've won 26m so I'm buying my council house and a new fiesta" - OK, yours, spend it how you see fit - but for fks sake, have a bit of imagination, eh?
The only danger I see is everything would just be easy, no challenge left unless as suggested above you set up some form of foundation
I would also worry that some of the younger friends and family would be stupid with any gifts (drugs etc)

His name escapes me at the moment - I think he lived the dream, certainly!
ETA Karl Crompton - won 11 Million in 1996 at the age of 23, and having blown about £3mill inside a year settled down and is now reckoned to be worth comfortably more than he won!

That'll be the ttFelt so sorry for the people that scumbag moved next to
Thats the problem, odds are some utter scumbag will win it and make someone elses life a misery
How much would it cost to build a decent race track these days?
(Thats decent as in Castle Coombe style, not Silverstone!)
