What would you do if you won the lottery?

[Greythundercloudys]

If you won the lottery what would you spend the money on first? A few of my neighbours have hit the jackpot with wind turbines. Everyone of them bought a new car for the wife and a new tractor for them selves. I would buy a new tractor. And keep farming till it was done. Haha. True.

Employ a PA

 

[Shep]

I'd buy a big estate and employ "staff" to do the work. Take a look in every now and then to keep me grounded and something to have an interest in.
Rest of the time I'd be ballsing about having a good time.

Start a Ford tractor sanctuary.

 

[Smith31]

In all honesty I would carry on doing what I am doing now, would probably buy newer tractors and machinery. If I am not busy I get bored quickly unfortunately.

 

[Lazy Eric]

Pay the bank and buy fish and chips with what’s left.

Copy a lot of the ideas in the "Farmers carefull with money" thread.

 

[Spuddler]

If it was a big win I would buy several farms and have trust for starter farms for new entrants wishing to get into farming.

 

[Ramrod]

[Nearly]

A man comes home one day and says, "Guess what honey? Pack your bags, I won the lottery!" The wife squeals with delight and says, "That's great! Should I pack for the mountains or the beach?" He says, "I don't care, just get out!"

 

[JeepJeep]

I wouldn't be telling a soul for starters... and various things would slowly appear.
