BlueStar 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I'd love the money, but I've got nothing like the bottle to do that. If you found a case in the street with £1m in it, would you keep it? I would without a second thought. Although with the adrenaline rush it would create walking down the street with it, I'd probably run head-first into a wall or something. 173328[/snapback] What would you do with a million in cash though? It's a bit suss to go and pay it in to HSBC and I can't imagine you'd be able to buy a house in notes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Was saying the other day, if I won the lottery I'd still go to uni.. Just for the banter and nightlife.. Shows how much work students actually do eh! (obviously I'd stop going to uni when I realised I'm the oldest one, before any of you smart arses comment on it) 173440[/snapback] Id still hang around with my mates from uni, but would i fuck study 173447[/snapback] People were talking about whether they'd give up WORK, lads, not whether they'd stay on permanent fucking holiday. 173452[/snapback] Yeh good call. With in a week of having more than £100k in the bank i would have bought £50k worth of guitars and amps and drank myself to death. Maybe less than a week.

The Fish 10659 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 £15m... for ten to fifteen years? well I've heard that if it's a premeditated they can do you for conspiracy and hiolds a far greater prison term as punishment I suppose for it depends who I was stealing from, if there was force involved etc. If I was electronically stealing for a multinational corporation and no force was used whatsoever then I'd be more inclined to do it. However, robbing £25m at gunpoint from a succession of bookies in an area would not be appealing. It's not the stealing that's a problem, it's the "getting away with it" It's leaving no trace of your crime. Now if you're saying that there is a 60-40 chance of me going down for the theft then no, I wouldn't do it. Because a 60-40 chance means that it hasn't been planned right.

Gemmill 44066 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 60-40 that you don't go down. That's about as good as it gets in real life, I would think. This isn't "Heat", Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest alex Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I also think you have to earn money to appreciate it. 173465[/snapback] I agree in the main but - I've won money and appreciated it more in a way. Your earnings go straight into the bank and you don't really see them whereas on the odd occasion I've fleeced the bookies I've probably felt better about that money than I would otherwise. I appreciate gifts too which are sometimes money/vouchers and in those circumstances I tend to buy something I wouldn't normally buy, as a treat. Also, do you reckon people who have their lives improved by charitable donations are unappreciative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't "Heat", Dave. 173481[/snapback] could you drop everything? if you felt the Heat coming round the corner? I think the odds for proper big thefts are not 60-40 getting away with it. I'd wager there are big thefts going on right now, hidden in the electronic mess of the internet. There'll be scams and grifts going on that we have no knowledge of, where the chance of getting away with it is a lot better than 60% or maybe I just wish there was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
