Id have a enormous facility built, packed with cnc machines of every kind and a workforce to use them making all the nla parts that Audi wont.
Itd have serviving facilities within to handle 20 or 30 cars at a go, with every paid member of Classic-Audi free to use them whenever they wanted.
Tools etc all there for the use of, do it youself or wait whilst we make you a new cylinder head or fit you a new engine, gratis of course,...lol
Family would obviously be looked after, id put a few million into cancer research, leukemia etc to try and shift along progress for a cure and other such stuff, have my own place maybe in switzerland, austria, monaco perhaps? dont want a boat, id have a lear jet.
Id be like Bruce fecking Wayne without the underpants on the outside.

The thing about having that amount of buying ability is that its a little hard to grasp just how much you can have, theres basically no limits, still id not turn into the likes of that fat prick michael "king chav" carroll...fat oaf. He blew 7 odd million.....now he wants his old job back.

They probably wouldn't acccept it, at least not under normal terms.

The problem for them is that they have to reinvest it in order to pay you interest, and you could turn up at any moment and ask for it back. The liability - having to find that much cash instantly - would affect their liquidity in their Bank of England returns.

you smooth talking b******!!!

I've always tried to find beautiful women with a slight physical flaw. They tend to be very insecure about it and you can pray on that

only joking darling!!!

(no chance of "daddy loving" now!!)

The lottery have a team of advisors, including financial ones to help them sort out the problems that go with gaining vast wealth overnight.

I know it would be so hard to do but i think the best thing would be to bank it and set yourself a salary every month and make so you can only take out really large amounts with like 6 months notice or something, and of course dont tell anyone you have won anything.

I think the daily interest on £161m is about £17000 a day!!
Even if you dont touch the original sum a monthly salary of over £1/2 million pounds is going to be fairly hard to keep quiet if you're used to people seeing you live a lifestyle based on bringing home £3000 a month

How about starting your own bank? I am sure many small companies would be delighted to get investment to expand their business.

What about inheritance tax on a lottery win? Would the government be rubbing it's hands in glee?

In the U.S winners do pay tax on any winnings... so IF say I visited the U.S and bought a ticket and won, not being a U.S citizen nor living there.... would I get taxed before removing money back to the U.K ?
