Default £101 million jackpot.

Ah well, lucky them! I hope it doesn't change them for the worse. Though I'm already worried that she wants a replacement engagement ring!

Good to see that they're going to make 15-20 of their family/friends millionaires.

Ah yes, Dave Dawes, my best mate at school... ..and no doubt they'll get a few more people knocking on their door.

I do find it interesting how some people choose to remain anonymous and some don't. I must admit I've stayed anonymous whenever I've won on the lottery.... ....nobody's found out yet. Okay, so it's only been a few tenners.

I'm quite happy working, it is an obscene amount of money to win though, yes good luck to them because their probably need more luck now than what they did winning the money in the first place. I bet the first thing they will do, is start deleting their 500 plus friends on facebook

Everybody wants to get rich. And when they are very very rich, I wonder what they want. To be rich again? or learn to love/hate again?

That's a bit heavy! I'll just settle for wanting to be rich, if I get there, I'll let you know what I want next

Steve - you didn't tell me your forum tackled the BIG questions like love and money. Might be all a bit too highbrow for me

I thought it was supposed to be all about supporting businesses in a friendly and helpful manner.

To be fair I've just done a deal with an International Business Consultant who has offered to send tailored business advice to any of our members.

This offer is only valid over xmas though

Thanks Steve - sounds good. Think I can get some great advice there. However, the sign-up questions confused me a little... I mean am I a 'child' or 'adult' - all very complicated I think.

Might need to call BusinessLink to give me some advice on that.... although they probably won't be able to help too based on previous experience
