Hello steemit and welcome to today's thoughts. Last week the winners of the euro millions lotto jackpot of £115 million where announced and aturns out to be couple that live 4 miles down the road from me won it with a lucky dip ticket at the last minute. Northern Ireland only has 1.5 million people and a 30k - 60k people is normal per town. This means that someones always knows some else from the next town over and it's nice to see. That's a pretty good ROI for a £2 ticket and they have said they plan to make 40-50 close family and friends millionaires by giving at least half away. They did an interview last week and spoke of some plans. If i won that money i would not be going public and doing interviews, fuck that. Me and family would be on the plane to anywhere we god damn please, id quit my job by SMS millennial style at the airport and travel with the clothes on our backs and bank cards.
Here is the lucky couple
The women is a teacher and the husband is a business owner. They did a good interview, when asked about what they were going to be doing about security, the wife replied ''I've never met someone i couldn't take down''. They said that they had already made a list of 50 friends and family to give money to but they said the list would likely grow. I am happy when i see things like this and i would like to think i would do the same in their shoes.
Things i would do if i won the lotto
- Stop working overtime and Saturdays
- Wear brand new socks and underwear everyday
- Find Satoshi Nakamoto
- Franchise a McDonalds, Burger King and KFC so i could get a BK burger, MickyD's fries and KFC gravy on the same street
- Put a helipad in the back garden
- Hire Gordon Ramsey and have him make me tinned beans on toast and then tell him it's SHIT
- Dump the car and limo everywhere, even when im only out for a pint of milk
- Play poker with famous pro players
- Produce my own strain of weed
- Oh and take care of my family. Almost forgot there.
- And smart house, completely smart like Bills Gates house but smaller than his.
- I might also buy huge land to make big fires on, big huge fires with 100 foot flames
- And finally, i'd buy the most expensive toilet paper money can buy to keep my brown eye rash free. (Swear to fuck, its a jungle back there, things hanging and,............ oh it's just nasty)
what would you do?
It'll never happen but there is a chance all the same and it's nice to day dream sometimes. I think it's easy to know what you would do if you won 10-20 million but over 100 is to much to contemplate.
