There's always a bit of a joke going on when we do a syndicate on how everyone will retire if we won, I get scoffed at when I tell them that I'll still come to work if we win, how much of a win is the cut off between paying everything off and living comfortably or actually quitting?

Anything under $2M would see me continue to work in my current job.


Would continue working but would be on my terms, wouldn't give up a thing with the children to work unlike now where at times I have to make those choices.

Agreed, $2m would change yours and your kids lives but you'll still be working.

Earlier today I grabbed a coffee & a muffin down at the café near work, which is in beautiful Broadmeadows Melbourne. It's actually a decent café. While I was waiting for my order the radio was playing, and they had it a bit louder than usual, and on a "doof doof" station...... Anyway the song is playing and the lyric came on...."Put ya hands in the air, put ya ******* hands in the air"........ not the words you want to hear in Broady!

If you win a mil you'd probably buy a nice house, nice car and go on an extravagant once in a lifetime holiday with the family, that would chew a large portion up, chuck in a car each for the kids or a deposit for a house for them.

The nice house you brought would bite you in the arse with council rates etc.

A million dollar win and I'm still rocking up each day.

$1m
Pay off mortgage.
Few upgrades around the place.
No need for a new car, I only drive my car to golf and back.
Go on a holiday. Probably to Scotland.
No kids, so that saves me a shitload!

Become a part time Uber driver if i get bored.

1 mill = approximately 8000 bottles of decent single malt.
