Went public today having won 184 million. Why on earth would you jeopardise your families security by telling every fcker.?
Seemed like a nice couple. Strange decision that tho.
Was discussing this with Er indoors earlier. Congratulations to them, but I think they’ve lost the plot going public, it’s something I’d never do. There are plenty of nasty gangsters out there who wouldn’t think twice about trying to extract money out of them, the security of loved ones would be a real concern. Better to say nowt, and let on you’d won a couple of hundred thousand or something and get on with things. It’s either that, or move away to somewhere where you wouldn't stand out and try to blend in - easier said than done.
