Wink If You Won The Lotto Would you.....

Consider leaving/leaving/divorcing your wife/husband/parner?
I've been working on a new NHS building contract with about 10 other fellas and this conversation came up. I think about 7 of the 11 there replied 'yes' they would. Kind of suprised me.
So.....
What would you do?

Hello

I certainly wouldn't divorce my wife if I won the lottery.

That's MUCH too expensive, when you could afford a really good hitman with all that money.

(Just joking of course)

Steve.

That surprises me too. How many would do it when it came to the punch might be different.
I know I would'nt - she's put up with me being a difficult git when we did not have a lot.

i wouldn't.

i am not surprised that most people would though. most people seem to be only with their partners for convenience and/or money reasons.

actually the going rate for a professional hitman is only £5k. apparently.

i do recall reading somewhere that lottery winnings aren't included in someone's estate for divorce proceedings. im not sure if thats a myth or not.

I wouldn't divorce her as long as she doesn't mind me modelling my life on Hugh Hefner's

I'm single so can't that and I only want to win 150K. I don't mind working for the rest of my life, just want a house .

But back on topic. No I wouldn't, if you would your with your partner for the wrong reasons.

If I won the lottery, it might even prompt me into marrying the current mrs mj. She has put up with me for about 10 yrs, the way I see it, if I binned her for some piece with big marracass and a big bottom I would be a fool.

The "is it me or the money" question would always be at the back of my mind.

The same applies to any birds or wives of mate's, and that fit chav that works in the petrol station.

From the point of winning the lotto, any new bird I met that showed even a sniff of interest would be very carefully vetted

ETS: maybe got my vote

...forgot to say, it is scientific FACT that *fit* birds are crap at washing up & cooking english breakfasts.


what more evidence do you need?

Has someone won the looto?

The absoluteley first thing I would ever do is to organise secure car storage, the second would be the purchase of a Gallardo, the next would be sourcing myself a replacement at work,all while this was cooking, would be the resignation and the move to an Uberpad somewhere out of the urban sprall.


after that, I would but the radical that holds the record for the nur-burger-ring, and try my best to come close to it, hey if I have to spend 200K on tuition from racing drivers so be it

With a few million you can have who you want ..................... so probably you would dump the regular for the spectacular.

Then you can hear the question asked of your new partner, "What attracts you to the multi-millionaire pslewis?"
