Too much money .... beyond life changing and has the capacity to destroy the marriage.

You get financial and personal advice from Camelot long term if you go public.

If you stay quiet you get no help from them at all.

I’d imagine they could point you in the right direction early on.

I’d absolutely swerve it and do one out of this country big style myself, but each to their own.

Absolutely. Tell my closest friends and family. Give them a fair whack of hush money each. Then bugger off abroad for ever!!

When you've got £184m in the bank I think you're also going to need some advice on where to keep it.
I doubt you'd want to be keeping it in your normal savings account getting 0.01% interest.
You're also going to need an extremely well written will to make sure half the money doesn't disappear in inheritance tax when you overdose on coke.

I think Camelot provide you with a new bank account with the money in. Like one of those black diamond type accounts! I'm fairly sure they don't transfer the 184 million in to your hsbc super saver..

If I had that amount of money I'd actually be tempted to give some money to pretty much everyone that crawled out the woodwork. Close friends and family that I actually like would get a decent amount of money that could potentially change their life but the old friends that suddenly reappear out of no where might get £10k for a new car but more importantly to stop any future begging. Any old grudges can be put to bed when you're that rich. I'd rather use the money for good and to help make people happy.

I've always said to the missus that if I was rich enough, when I went out for dinner I'd secretly pay for everyone's dinner in the restaurant. They'd never know it was me and the wouldn't take advantage of it because they wouldn't know it was paid for until they came to leave.

That’s exactly what I would do too if I won that much of money. I would give a lot of it away and help as many people as I can, perhaps that’s why I haven’t won the lottery yet lol

They appear nice enough, fair play to them. The odds of winning the jackpot are almost non-existent, yet somebody must win. I certainly know my mum has played once a week for about 15 years and never won more than about £100 in total. I don't see why you'd want to go public, like.

If it's me winning eight figures plus I am sorting out my immediate family with £100,000 each, then buying a plot of land in South East Asia and building a big fk off house there and getting me the best wife money can buy.

Oh I would want everybody to know if I won it. You couldn't miss it anyway when I build a 200 foot solid gold statue of myself in my back garden that you can see from space.

I would also pay people (or peasants as I would call them) to clean my shoes and stuff even though they are brand new and already shiny. I would then throw the money at them. All of it in lower denomination coins.

Probably join the Tory party too....nah too far.

This reminds me of The Two Ronnie’s sketch when as tramps, they were discussing being rich;
RB; “If I had all Rockefeller’s millions, I’d be richer than him.
RC; “How’s that then?”
RB; “Well..I’d have all his millions....and I’d do a bit of window cleaning on the side!”
