£73,000,000

Arhh, must get a ticket later. Not that I'll win anything with my luck... but it has to change at some point - right?

I too would share the winnings with my family and friends. That would make everyone happy and it would be a joy to see.
Maybe even host a HHO party!! :D
 
Why don't they cap it at 5 million - it'd make more people winners and surely 5 million would be enough for anyone!?

I'd be straight off to buy a GP dressage horse, a whole lot of lessons and a swanky lorry! ;0)

That would be a brilliant idea! I wouldn't know what to do with 5 million let alone 73! Stupid amount of money IMO.

I would buy a horse, nice house, a holiday...and just be able to live comfortably and do the things I want to do in life, share with close family and friends but not tell anyone else in case I suddenly gained a lot of "friends".

I would still work as I love my job and have only just started my career. Probably end up giving most of it to charity tbh.
 
I would give loads away to family.

Then I would quit my job!

Then buy a nice little cottage - not pokey, but not a mansion either, with lots of land. I would then have a little yard and spend my days playing horses!
 
I would make sure all my family had plenty to make sure they were set up for life then i would buy a nice big house with loads of land and buy what ever i wanted horse wise, although i already them. I would enjoy life without any more money worries :D.
 
If i won the big one I'd buy a new house for my mum and dad, and then move into their house because I love it! I'd but a new lorry, new ponies, quit my job and make trust funds for my godson and my nephew and I'd like to fund a Polo Pony Retirement Home, that would be my dream. Just bought a ticket, what the hell!

This ^^ happily take a smaller but still life changing amount is it shortens the odds on me winning at all :D :D :D

Then - a tricked out horse box to park in the stable yard of my fab new house :D
 
Duh wot? Prompted by this post! I just tried to log onto my online National Lottery account (had it and been using it for several years now), only to keep getting this message up: We think you're outside the UK and Isle of Man and it wont let me gain access. WTF. Nope, sat here online, on my iPad, in gloomy Devon, via my BT home internet service. Unimpressed to say the least, especially as I know tonight was MY night! LOL. But seriously, what the hell are they going on about? Outside of UK???? I'm not aware BT route their internet service via overseas??!
 
I would make sure nearest and dearest were sorted. Then various charidees across the globe that I feel are worthy...

Build new school for poor children and pay for teachers.
Build a sanctuary for retired polo ponies in Malaysia.
Set up a barefoot research facility in several countries and end the debate one way or another.
Other sustainable projects...

Boring but anyway, that's what I would do.
 
I would buy a chunk of land and then get George Clarke to design my dream home with a four stable block, tack room, feed room wash area/ solarium covered school of 40 x 60.
I would get myself a new discovery, my son a defender and my daughter a mini.
Then I would get a lovely new horse box fit for my girls to travel in.
Then after Christmas is all over (which we will celebrate in NZ) and my house is almost done it will be pony shopping time.
I would want to put my girl to a laid back 16.2 ish event stallion (don't know which one though) as I want a foal from her for my daughter to compete in the future. And then I would look for a very flashy WB gelding with paces to die for so I can win lots of red ribbons in dressage (if Katie Price can do it so can I) and I also would get a bl**dy nice 16.2 irish sport horse and play around up to novice BE (can't beat a bit of Irish) Mmmm better make it six stables!!
 
Hmm.. give loads away to friends and family because there is no point being jobless on your own. Buy a nice little place with land and take on retirement liveries for folks who are genuine, struggling for some reason and has an unrideable but otherwise healthy horse who would be pts if a nice home couldn't be found. Also the swanky lorry and solarium thing.
 
Give a cool mil to each friend and family member, buy my dream house in the country with an amazing yard for my two boys (and buy daughter a pony), give up work, buy new car or two, holiday, new wardrobe...I could go on!
 
mmm Where do I start!

Firstly I would help out family & those friends who have always been there for me!
I would also buy one of these http://www.equicruiser.co.uk/14T.htm
I would set up a riding yard just for underprivilaged kids & kids with special needs
I would have acres of land & take in as many unwanted horses as possible & let them live out their days in luxury
I would take an annual riding holiday in Spain
I would donate heeps to the childrens hospital that saved my daughters life

Appart from that would love to give up work & be a SAHM & spend all my time with my kids & horses

But if I won and 73,000,000 would bring my Dad back would give it all up.
