We don’t buy tickets for the lottery very often, and if I do I always just put on a Lucky Dip.
We do like the fun chat of what we would do if we won but, being quite happy with our lives as they are, there are only a few things that we’d immediately do. By and large our thoughts are that, as long as we have a house, some savings, and no debt, and are set for life (and Jack’s life) then we can share out the rest of our winnings.
I don’t fancy the life of a millionaire to be honest. All that stuff and all those things —Your Friends and Neighbours TV show paints a very bleak view of that world— would end up just being an additional stress.
Winning the lottery should be freedom.
OK, fine, there would be signs. Like a nice house with a big garden (and room for 3 camper vans), and a couple of new electric cards (Renault 5 and Ferrari Luce?), and yeah, we’d get newer iPhones to replace our 13 & 14 models but, honestly, the joy we’d get for giving our family and friends some financial comfort, the memories we could create for Jack, that’s where the value is.
What are your thoughts?
