z-layrex Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Yeah probably. Why would you want to though. I know work sucks but life could get pretty dull without it, I wouldn't know what to do with myself after a while.
Kent Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Yeah probably. Why would you want to though. I know work sucks but life could get pretty dull without it, I wouldn't know what to do with myself after a while. Yeah this would be the problem. It would be hard not to get bored at times if you're living an 'average' lifestyle like you would need to. You would need some sickening addiction to gaming or something to keep yourself occupied.

To be fair i'd probably just fire up the old eve online account again and say goodbye to reality for a few years.
broughtonblue Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Yes, would give it a go. On the downside, if you packed in work for 30 odd years then had to go back cos you ran out of money, how hard would it be to get to sleep on the Sunday night??
gazfox9 Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 I'd say a definate yes. And I wouldn't mind trying either.
FoxyPV Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Yeah this would be the problem. It would be hard not to get bored at times if you're living an 'average' lifestyle like you would need to.

Charity work, political activism, exercise, further study to name but a few things that could occupy your time and be fulfilling.
Trav Le Bleu Posted 19 June 2011 Author Posted 19 June 2011 To be fair i'd probably just fire up the old eve online account again and say goodbye to reality for a few years. But on a really good PC with surround sound capsule and one of those gaming chairs. Imagine it!
AoWW Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Charity work, political activism, exercise, further study to name but a few things that could occupy your time and be fulfilling. Shoe shopping....
FoxyPV Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 Shoe shopping.... Given your taste in shoes - that money would last about 10 pairs. But just for you (and me)
AoWW Posted 19 June 2011 Posted 19 June 2011 I take it you have a Christian Louboutin fetish?! But you're right... a million wouldn't get me many pairs of shoes.

MPH Posted 20 June 2011 Posted 20 June 2011 Tax free? of course. http://www.which4u.co.uk/bank-accounts/investment-plans/investec-ftse-bonus-100-income-plan
Bellend Sebastian Posted 20 June 2011 Posted 20 June 2011 of course. http://www.which4u.co.uk/bank-accounts/investment-plans/investec-ftse-bonus-100-income-plan Forgive my pedantry, but the return of capital in that case is dependent on stockmarket performance and there's also counterparty risk, which no-one ever bothered about until Lehmann Brothers went tits up, and we suddenly realised massive financial institutions can collapse after all. We had clients in similar plans that still don't know if they're getting their money back. All I'm saying is to not mistake these things for bank accounts, because they're not. With the bank base rate at 0.5% and gilt yields similarly depressed, institutions just cannot offer returns like that without some sort of risk being present in the product.
