After hearing the "syndicate squabble" this morning, it reminded me very much of our office, those that contribute weekly, and those that only jump on the bandwagon when there's a biggie to be had.
I thought Dom came over the best, freely offering to give a fair chunk to charity.
If we win through the syndicate at work it's a mere £6.4m each, so only a feeble £370ish interest per day ; but if my 1 lucky dip comes up trumps, ie the £166m all for me with £9,000 interest per day:-
1) Hand in notice at work.
2) Pay a few of my nicer customers insurance premiums for them - as I know they are struggling in the currant climate.
3) Give a fair chunk to local animal charities.
4) Help out long standing loyal mates that might need a bit of a boost.
5) Hire a PA - I'm cr@p with paperwork.
6) Buy a farm, and let those that want to try the good life,rent a log cabin and approx 5 acres of land.
7) The rent from the above would go towards a dog rescue centre.
8 ) Give all my work colleagues a couple of grand each.
Quite frankly, all that for one person is too boggling to comprehend.
Would it change me? I like to think not; I'll probably still hunt around the yellow stickered stuff in the supermarket
