given next tuesdays jackpot of $90m, what would be the first three things you would do if you won it? (besides faint, scream, freak out etc....!)

mine.........

1. probably give mine and the missus immediate family a decent chunk each (probably 1m)

2. get the "boys" together for one helluva bender........in Vegas!!!

3. talk to my local footy club about what they could do with a massive amount of money!

and then of course would come all the boring stuff, investing, buying a house llalalaalalala all that sorta stuff! but would probably just live it up for the first month or so!

1. Make sure ticket is for the right draw.
2. Take it to SA Lotteries for verification
3. Get verification in writing!

After that - ring all the banks and get them to come to me - for no fee - and bid for my business!

hmmmmm....can but dream :lol: but if I was actually eligible to win...

Pay off the flat and gift it to Shelter (a charity for the homeless) that should be nice payback to the neighbous :twisted:

Give some to the family on the condition I never see any of them again.

Move as far away from airfields and the UK as I can and plan what charities the bulk of the rest will go to...would keep enough to build my own bungalow and to live on.

Nah...would never want anything as big as a mansion...2 bed bungalow but built with everything just the way I want it would suit me fine...although near to the Oval would be nice if I pick Adelaide to live in ;)

Who did I p*ss off?

Different ideas of spoiling...would only take a fraction of that much money to spoil myself :D so the rest should go to doing something good.

I've never been that into material things Dog_ger so there really is not much I'd want to buy.

Maybe build some clubrooms at Norwood to keep C_P, Squawk, Fester and co happy ;) :lol:

I'm materialistic.

Dog_ger will have a heli pad on the roof of his mansion.

By the pool... ;) alonside the marina with the boat that doesn't move when you step upon it... ;)

And I would have a castle some where in england to visit when i get bored.. ;) :lol:

England, Ireland, France, Italy, Germany, etc, etc, etc.

Give me 12 months and I will turn the world economy around. ;)

And double the $90M... :lol:

Blow Norwood...

Thinking about it...the very, very first thing I'd do...make sure I picked the 'no publicity' option.

Dog_ger with all that travelling it sounds like you'd be better off just buying one of these luxury Volkner things ;) :D

Probably run around the house hysterically waking everyone up. Then re-check the ticket to make sure and probably run around hysterically again.

1st thing I'd do is give notice :lol:

2. Walk out the skinny door :lol:

3. Pay off my unit and give it to my brother...actually no... my neighbours don't deserve it. I guess I'll build him something.

4. Send my Mother and Grandmother on an around the world trip :lol:

5. Pay for my cousins Uni course and make sure he doesn't have to stress about money while he's studying.

6. The only organisation that will get anything out of me, will be any research program that studies the conservation of Antarctica (and more importantly, it's Penguins :D )
They'd be the main things anyway.

Take the missus on a holiday, I'll go to Brazil and she can go wherever she likes.
