Back in 2002, I lived in social housing and money was tight but my Mum had always wanted to see Blackpool Illuminations. So, I did what any visionary does I made a plan and created a vision board...
Hi Sonia. Thanks for sharing that you've not tried a vision board yet. I reckon you might not be alone there but I love em. Focuses my mind about what I need to do. Your idea about what to do with your 1million pounds is so caring and thoughtful. I have a feeling you're right. In Bham, I believe there are a couple of day centres and clubs for elderly of African & Caribbean heritage. Services for pensioners are short of cash all over aren't they, so your 'investment' would be marvellous. Oooooh and your Christmas sounds beautiful by the way. Super-relaxing and restful which is what we all hope for. Have a fabulous festive season xx
Never done a vision board, it's all in my head.😂 Not that I followed through.
I can imagine how chuffed your mum was with Blackpool.
If i was lucky to come into lots of money my dream would to be open an elderly person's home for West Indians as I feel the culture/food is not considered in our care homes ( not in Manchester ). Also not saying they are less cared for either.
Christmas eve will be spent at my brothers. Christmas day my daughter and I at home moving at our pace. We open presents after breakfast.
Maverine, I would pay off the mortgage, take care of my family. Take a trip down to London for Afternoon Tea, at The Savoy. Then head back to Birmingham. I would definitely ❤️ that. Marj can only dream.
Hiya Marj, I love your list of what you'd do if you won a million. Definitely would sort the family out first, like you. OMG the Savoy is gorgeous. But you don't have to dream. You gotta be in it to win it. I am hoping next week The National Lottery does the Christmas Millionaires draw again😉
If I won the lottery I would buy my own home, a car, set up businesses, fund myself through university, financial investments, and give some to my loved ones, some for my church and some for my chosen charities. Then I be spending this money wisely and will never run out of money with setting up businesses to match all my talents.
Yes Marverine. Because I know what it is like to be so poor because my very rich family keeps me suppressed, oppressed and persecuted and neglected. Yes I have a very rich privileged background but, have not financed me since I became an adult. I don't mind speaking out against them being all Freemasons and I am a Christian, kind but no pushover and generous when I can be. They are all evil and very cruel people who I believe are all devil worshippers, which I have never been a part off and refuse to be like them. I seek the truth and they all are liars, deceivers and noncharitable very selfish, very greedy people who enjoys seeing me financially struggle and suffer so immensely. It is why I disowned them all.
I think keeping my winnings flowing in successful businesses is the key to never run out of businesses. Like I write specialist budget cookery books coming out next February/March 2025 is one business of mine I am yet to establish. Over the weekend I found myself a big book self-publisher who charging me the minimum price fro publishing, formatting, editing, proofreading, book cover design, printing and ISBN number. I have 2 book designers who charges me the minimal too, whichever is less expensive is the one I use. They also do the publicity, marketing and advertising globally for me too for the minimum cost to me. If I ever win the lottery it will be something i shall continue to write until I land my TV Broadcasting career or made enough money from these books.

Never running out is a good mindset to start with Pauline. Very comprehensive list of spends and investments too!!
