Mind you, if they began a booby prize for anyone who didn't even cross off one number, I'd already be a multi-millionaire.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03565202952790011951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1856509975336351108.post-52878089853949694082012-07-27T07:19:36.226+01:002012-07-27T07:19:36.226+01:00As i read this I was thinking that you already hav...As i read this I was thinking that you already have everything you need.

I'd like to think that winning it wouldn't really change me; I'd just have money!!!<br /><br />I know a bloke, now in his early 70s, who made a fortune years ago by selling a publishing company. Since then he's invested in property around the world, and has a knack of getting and getting out at the right time. He's worth a few million, but you'd never guess it.<br /><br />The other day we'd been to a event and stayed the night in a local hotel. I offered him a lift home the next morning, and as we got near his house he asked me to stop so he could get a paper. When he climed out of the pickup he suddenly disappeared. I thought the silly bastard had fallen, but he popped up a second later. He held out his hand to reveal two coins, and through the broadest smile I'd seen off him for a while he crowed, "Look! Seven pence, all for doing fuck all!"<br /><br />I'd like to think I'd be a bit like that!The Idiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18345021580985320660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1856509975336351108.post-57797132192258478782012-07-26T11:03:23.059+01:002012-07-26T11:03:23.059+01:00How truly lovely.
