Honestly I’m not convinced things would be all that different day to day for me. Far less stressful because of eradicating any money stuff. But my day to day I feel like would be the same thing in a bigger/nicer house . I’d also have cleaners because I hate housework. We already have a gardener .

Biggest difference would be that my youngest who is likely to need lifelong care would be set for life - which is one of my biggest long term worries (what happens to her when we’re old/dead).

I think the thing is, national press and tabloids aren’t going to be interested and you’re probably fine in a large city, but if you live in a small-ish place... local press will definitely want to report on it, and even if only a few locals read that paper, it’s going to spread in a weekend by word of mouth as soon as that happens. Because it’s ONLY the biggest gossips who read the local paper

Unless you just tell your closet family, I definitely wouldn't be telling anyone else.

One lucky UK winner...as yet unclaimed.


If I won loads I would help out friends and family...pay off mortgages etc. Buy a lovely Barn Conversion in the countryside and have a few luxurious holidays...and I would donate to Charities close to my heart.

I would hate to win stupid amounts of money.
A couple of million would be easy enough to handle I suppose.
I would help family and friends out, especially my daughter.
Buy her a house and set up a trust for her.
Set up a trust for son as well in case he ends up divorced from his very rich wife.😊
Our own lifestyle wouldn’t alter at all as we are happy as we are.

I honestly don’t know.
I think I’d have to employ people to tell me what to do and have one of those dog zapper collars on if I was like... nah just get me with an 8 ball and some hookers and JD
