.......what would you do with it ?
Just a bit of fun folks but I occasionally drift off into a daydream of what I'd do if I won the lottery. Apart from the usual paying off of mortgages, buying new houses & cars, paying off credit cards & loans and splashing a bit around the family, what would you really want to do if money wasn't a problem ?
I'd buy all the camera equipment I wanted and set myself up as a freelance photographer travelling the world photographing just about anything and everything ! That would seriously indulge my passion for travel and photography at the same time !!
What would you do ?

After buying my kids their dream houses, new car each...nothing flashy...probably a Mini for me ;D
I would also buy myself a new house with a bigger garden with enough room to put a large shed and a GH in it...
I would splash out on a real family holiday for us all and then visit all my family and friends overseas.....have no idea what else really...but with a bit of thought I am sure that I could come up with something else ;D

Can you imagine winning £1,000,000  I won £75 coming second in the 100 Club at the boys' school and thought that was quite exciting. The first thing I would do is buy a house in one of the villages closer to the boys school so they didn't have such a long journey. |

I'm not convinced I'd buy a new house coz I love where I live, but I would like to extend it a bit - mind you I might have to bribe someone to get the planning permission ;D Perhaps I could buy the house next door and knock the two houses together...
OH would expect me to invest quite a bit and to be honest even in a reasonable financial climate you'd need to invest a lot to live off the interest.
I'd probably buy myself a painting - something I really love but couldn't possibly afford!!

I have thought about it ... and apart from seeing my kids right I don't really need or crave much  Maybe a fully fitted little camper van, then I could come and visit everyone (bet you hope I don't win ;D) x Tig |

There are lots of things I would do so for starters look for a new house that had an indoor swimming pool
Oh the joy to get up every morning and go for a swim <sigh> <bliss>
