But is it just us, or is it incredibly exhilarating to think about limitless money?
As much as some hate to admit it, money really does make the world go around. Especially now, as we are currently living in the greediest era to date. Consume consume consume. Prices rise & we consume some more...
I'm not going to go into some big spiel about how we should all be happy with what we have instead of always wanting more, although this is 100% true, but the fact is with products & travel being sold to us left right & centre it's kind of hard to NOT want these things or want to see these things right? I know I do anyway.
Just entertaining the idea of possible financial security for life gives me shivers.
I do think if we were to win lotto it wouldn't all be rainbows and butterflies and range rovers though... Infact I think it could cause a lot more grief than its worth, after all, with great wealth comes great greed, possibly a lot of laziness,and definitely a loss of value of money. Some would disagree with that but I think that trio would be hard to avoid. There would be family feuds and people with their hands out at every turn, and for us personally, it would be bloody hard not to raise a couple of spoilt brats.
So would it be that great? Sure financial stability for life would be wonderful- but who knows... Chances are we won't ever have to find out, but in the meantime I do enjoy a good journey down "imagine lane"..
This is what I envision our life to look like if we were to win lotto;
Firstly, a house right on the beach, preferably a weatherboard with a huge surrounded deck somewhere with gorgeous temps year round. Not to be too fussy or anything..
We would most likely take the leap and say our vows sooner rather than later, preferably somewhere like this too. Yes, that would be quite nice.
I would definitely go to Europe and buy a bike just like this, with a bell, and travel around like the Brady brunch on a bicycle for a year.
I would never clean again. That's not very motherly of me is it? But really, who actually enjoys cleaning? Ugh. Bane of my life.
Oh, and Oli would have to have one of these. A Valiant VF 4 door sedan. I thought I had better put one of his choices on our wish list too, seeing as we're a team and all that jazz.
There would be more than a few of these little fullas around home, I'm thinking at least 5 dogs and 2 cats..
And besides all of the things we would buy / do / see, there would be a lot of extended family holidays for all, houses for every family member and maybe the odd (good) friend, obviously a lot would be put aside for the kids, and I would be taking a hefty chunk down to the SPCA..
Even just thinking about doing all of that makes my heart smile...
That's about all I've got folks, I probably could go on for a lot longer and google image a lot more to add to that but you get the gist of it all,
So what would you do if you won lotto?
