You Win The Lottery. What Do You Do....

How do you spend it?

Me: donate, make family secure, house, car and travel. Set up conservation and rescue centres for animals and wildlife. Possibly create my own sheep land so that I could have my own little word of happiness with fluffy baby lambs to cuddle. Maybe a shrink too.

In reality I would make a very large donation to MSF

Similar to Dustypuss, I would buy a house for the wife.

People think Leprosy does not exist in the 21st century, they are wrong!

A bit to charities, Medical foundation for the treatment of victims of torture, Oxfam, Red Cross, Medicine san frontier.
Buy a place where I could get some winter sunshine, and give the house I live in to a woman I know.

Many years ago, one April, we went out for a meal with all my brothers and sisters and their other halves. We were celebrating my sister getting engaged. At the end of the meal while most of the family just wanted to split the bill six ways my other sister moaned that one person had extra poppadoms and that her husband had not had a desert and she asked for a menu so that she could work out their share. We all ended up just paying off the rest of the bill between us. Just before we left the restaurant she said she had some news to share with us. The news was that in the previous November her and her husband had won £1 million pounds on the Pools. It has not made her any happier.

I think the happiness in a big win would come in giving it away. Not all of it, but most.
