Is it true that you have to go public if you win the Euromillions???

fair play to them , but honestly would you go public? I also think they both now can afford a gastric band each and save the NHS a few bob.

I'd buy Bohs and install myself as player/manager and make an assault on Europe!!!

I'd also buy Tallaght stadium off the South Dublin CC and kick out the current tenants.

Winning 161 million is obscene and neatly captures just how much Mr Murdoch and the tabloids and other media outlets have brainwashed people.

Now just as I always argue for a better share of wealth, would it not be better if we had 161 winners of one million each, or my preference would be 322 winners of 500,000k each.

That way we have a lot more happy people.

However as the media sells us obscene wealth I suspect there are many who would not buy a ticket to win a "lousy" million.

I think it is obscene.I really find it hard to justify that kind of a payout.When it reaches a certain amount it should start to be divided and made into a number of prizes for numerous winners.Its quite sickening when you dwell on it for a bit,knowing the hardships that are out there in the world.

Get away from all the rain :(

Agree with those who are saying it is a ridiculous amount of money. Does the Euromillions give any money to good causes like the Lotto does?

On the contrary it might be quite easy to launch a fictional hostile bid on a fictional company.

So who provides you with your capital?

James Bond?
Tintin?
The Loch Ness Monster?
Albus Dumbledore?
Paddington Bear?
Batman perhaps?
