I'd much rather see you spend your money on enjoying your retirement! Although I promise I'll look after your house!<br />I reckon that after buying lottery tickets for 50 years I'd be scared to stop!

There are apparently restrictions on how much and how often we can give it, and there are the repercussions on the people you give it to. They might not have the "nouse" (spelling?),or common sense to use it well. But then that shouldn't be your problem.<br />Investment would be good, depending on how you did it, but there are always the taxation problems, (or maybe if you have a good tax agent, you can deal with that!)<br />For me, I would just want my near family to benefit, and be able to not have to struggle, and to be independent. We will not be leaving much to Mel and Jezz, except the house and lots of memories, so maybe the big win would be good for them.<br />Who knows? I have been buying lottery tickets for over 50 years, in the hope of setting my kids up.
