what would you do?

what would you do if you won 15 million? I would see my family and friends all right, make a healthy donation to several charities, buy the old pavilion cinema and turn it into a theatre/cinema, buy a holiday home in Crete, buy the john o' groats hotel and renovate it - Oh dear - maybe 15 million would not be enough. If there is anything left - my house needs a new roof!

I'd spend 14 million on women whisky and gambling and I'd probably just squander the rest.

I would buy a landrover, a croft up a track and live happily ever after.

**Naefearjustbeer** · 28-Jun-05, 22:46

after I sobered

I would buy a stretch of land with a river and build a white water kayak run.

Set up a trust fund for the children and the grandchild then retire to that house in Caithness with the views across The Pentland Firth to die for.

I would set up a £13,000,000 training college somewhere in Africa to train young kids on how to build a better life for themselves.

The rest would probably go on my family, friends and myself of course.

If I was lucky enough to win that much money, I would divide it equally between my mum, daughter and son in law, my son, my best friend and myself. I would buy a new car, a holiday apartment in Mallorca and get a private doctor!!!

A wise man once said to me. "If you really really hate someone buy them a croft"

Haribo · 30-Jun-05, 16:30

I would count myself as very lucky that I'd be able to get everyone I cared for out of Caithness before it becomes a wind factory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

**BazzaG** · 30-Jun-05, 16:30

**hereboy** · 30-Jun-05, 17:23

I'd put on a series of free buses into Wick so that people could sign on easily...

That would be me doing my bit for the county...

here, did you know that John F Kennedy was named after a Drive in Thurso? I never knew that - first the founder of the BB's and now an American president...

i'd buy a big crane with a wrecking ball & attack the wind turbines then use the rest of the money to hide in a country where they couldnt extradite me from

Lizz: If your talking about Dwarick House (House of the Northern Gates) I think you might find someone already lives there...lol...but I guess for 15 mill they might move.

My folks were going to buy it years ago, but got out bidded by some germans, and the day we moved to our new house the solicitors rang up to say the Germans had dropped out. Otherwise you would be giving your 15 million to my family...

So If I had YOUR 15 million and my 15 million I guess I could pretty much do what ever I wanted.

Which would be to buy a bookshop/ florist and waste my days away....or I could just say winning 15 million wouldn't change my life......but who wants to stay working off-shore...Mmm.....
