Lottery Winners In Bolton
What about the lottery winners from Bolton? Is it just me that thinks such big amounts of money are obscene? I just think that when jackpots reach certain amounts they should be split into more realistic amounts.

Ya I agree with you Bernie, the only way I'd disagree is if I'd won it

Re: Lottery Winners In Bolton
nope they bought their ticked and as far as im concerned they are entitled to every single penny that was available that particular week they won
if you dont like the idea of winning loads of money or somone getting your ticket money dont play
teh more money you win teh more fun you can have blowing it

Re: Lottery Winners In Bolton
There has been a thread I think about what people would do if they won a million, it would be interesting to know what people would do with 25 million, I was going to do this in a thread, but it belongs to Bernadette, I have what people may term a strange idea for what I would do with it, but I want to know what others would do first!

Re: Lottery Winners In Bolton
Hey don't get me wrong I say good luck to them but by the same token they will never know a minutes peace now with begging letters and such like. I still feel it should be spread out over more prizes but that is just my take on it.

Re: Lottery Winners In Bolton
I think the word here is "jealous" who wouldnt be elated to win such a vast amount of money, I know I would & thousands of other people, the chance to change not just my life but friends & family, but one can only dream, good luck to the Casewell family, you gotta be in it to win it, and they did fair & square

No mate I certainly am not jealous, no amount of money can buy the things that matter in life

Re: Lottery Winners In Bolton
Good luck to them.
I hope they enjoy every penny, as happily none of those pennies come from my wallet.

I've always though about the up evil it would cause if you won a huge wedge, just what to do about begging letters, and I came to the conclusion that I'd just keep sending them
