Just won several million

Recommended Posts

On my last trip out to LOS during this summer I ended Soi half a dozen 😉 around 11pm and I was with a buddy of mine at my usual watering hole just chilling out after a couple of hard nights of partying. I hadn’t caught up with him like this in a while and there was just guy stuff we needed talk about and by the way the bar manager at this place is awesome! Anyway there’s about 6 to 8 girls enjoying drinks with a guy around 55years old from the UK having a good time. The bar manager comes over to me and my buddy and says that guy wants to buy you a drink...now I’m thinking shit he’s had toooooo much to drink and I should tell him he isn’t my type LOL but before I could I get told he has won the lottery back home 🙄 

Now, I was also told he had been partying over at hard rock but there was no entourage which the first weird thing...but anyway the millionaire is enjoying himself and I accept a drink. This goes on for about 4 rounds to the point I can’t drink that quick and get wasted...especially when I actually really really wanted to catch up with my mate who turns around and asks a valid question....If you had won the millions would you seriously hang around on the soi just buying random drinks all night? What would you do? Would you turn into a LDOP or a real two week millionaire? 😁

Thoughts on a postcard...

A big lottery winner (220 million USD) who is not one of the 70% who lose it all after a few years was quoted as saying, "You need to be disciplined with your winnings as well as having the ability to say no to people you barely know who will crawl out of the wood work to ask you for money, or you will go broke." 

It appears this guy is on his way to becoming one of the 70%. But hey, the money is his no matter how large and he is entitled to blow it all if he wants.

I would put on a nice party for my friends, bank a portion of the winnings for a rainy day, but the bulk of the money would go into a trust fund for my grandkids college education.

School being free in socialist France I wouldn't have to worry about that. 

So I'll spend most of it, and without any afterthoughts. 

Could see me moving to St Martin or Tahiti to finish my retirement. If you have millions, women is NEVER a problem anywhere.

I mean in $, £ or € ! Not Thb ... a few million bath would barely buy you a decent car !

think I've posted before on simular thread,

I would help my younger family circle,buy my mate a good bar in Asia and finance it for 2 years to give him a chance

and give decent money to 2 orphanges.

the rest I would just spend the rest of my life having a good time,banging some highclass workers.and maybe a nice beach house somewhere looking over a good beach,not that I can enter the surf again.but the thought would give me a hardon.

and hire a good carer who can cook a good lamb baked dinner and a great prawn curry.

and not back answer me when on my soapbox :default_clapping:

regards

When I was an accountant in Edinburgh I was visiting one of my self employed clients, basically a jack of all trades, builder decorator who made a modest living.

On asking him a routine question about any new assets aquired he astonished me by listing a new house, a condo/apartment in Town and a JCB.

I jokingly said:

"Have you won the (UK) lottery?" Ha ha

to which he replied

"Yes"

And he had.

Depends if its a million Thb or a million Euro ......

But in both cases my choice would sure not be Soi 6 !

Reminds me of the time I became an instant multimiljonair and had 4,010,000 in cash in hands. Such a shame it was in VND. It occurred after arriving at Noi Bai from Suvarnabhumi and exchanging some left over THB (8,000.-).

If a guy won the lottery and just happened to be at a bar on Soi 6 buying drinks for the ladies and other customers alike, what's the problem with that? Whether we win the lottery or just save our money to afford a trip to Pattaya, if that is where we choose to go, why not spend our savings/winnings where we like to go?

If I won, and happened to be in Pattaya, I would have no problem ringing a few bells or just quietly motioning to the bartender or waitress to get a round for the house. LePub would definitely be on my short list of spots to spend my newly acquired riches. My old hangout of two decades, the Shamrock, would be another, as would the Classroom a few doors down.

The one thing I would absolutely never do again if I did win the lotto, would be to never, ever, ever........fly economy.

It's biz class from here on out, baby!!

Back in July 1998, we have the Calif Super Lotto right? It was pick 6 numbers out of 49, was at work and during lunch always found myself reading the news paper where in the 2nd page they always posted the numbers from the night before. I about died......I got 5 out of 6!  I was one number away from winning $38 Million..I got a paltry $1,546 for this. No one won that night and I still wonder what it would have been like had I won and what direction life would have taken me. Not a druggie, so would not have had to worry about that and I still had never set foot in Thailand until 1999. Still playing today and have never come close since.....sad but true. 

Like a lot of you, would bank some for sure, give people who I like a "wad" to enjoy, some cool gals in Thailand whom I have met, some cool gals locally here too would reap some benefits, give some to Cancer Research, always wanted to build a Baseball field for Little Leaguers as a pipe dream, with lights for night games. Of course take care of my Daughter and Son, buy wifey some "high end"Jewelry...... and die with a smile on my face......when ever that day would come.

This is the very reason why I don’t have a regular set of numbers as one day will come and I’ll be kicking myself. I’ve always won reasonably good money on the lucky dip. Sometimes you have to test your luck 😃

A lad in the UK a few years ago won around £20 million. He was a waste of space, obnoxious, drug taking piss head.

He bought a posh house and proceeded to piss off his neighbors with his rowdy parties and stupid antics. 
Then the money ran out and he is now delivering coal for a living. 
 

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. 💩
