If you won 1 million on the lottery, what would you spend it on?

That's the difference between the Murdochs and Branson/Stellios.

Exactly - Murdoch put his own son as head, I don't think it was done on merits.

[oracleslave]

Branson came from well off families.

Yous sure? I know he went bankrupt 3 times before actually making a success of the record stores.

Are Lottery winnings not taxed??

Are Lottery winnings not taxed??

Nope. Even if it's millions - very good tax policy of the Govt, innit?

[Sockpuppet]

100 million penny sweets

Yeah, tax the ticket, not the winnings...

More tax earned from ticket sales than from winnings anyway.

So, what grade in your economics class then?

Are Lottery winnings not taxed??

I don't believe so.

I did some work for camelot in 2000. I went to every one of their regional offices. The pictures of winners hung on the office walls made me soooo jealous.

Then again I bet some of chavs have blown every single penny.

Forgot to add, I'd move house again, go see more of the world and spend whats left on hookers.

[sasguru]

High-class hookers, champagne and charlie.

[Churchill]

What if you were the sole winner of £95,000,000?

What then?

Monaco here I come!

Smile!

That's the difference between the Murdochs and Branson/Stellios.

He doesn't smile, they do! Branson is the biggest tWAt of all! He pretends to be the great benefactor while all along he's out for himself ripping everyone off. Look at Virgin trains, Virgin mobile etc and Northern Rock. Stelios is less eloquent, but a really nice guy if anyone has ever met him (very shy too, in real life).
