Speaker 1:

Welcome to the Untold Podcast. We're going to do a quick bonus reel, as tonight's EuroMillions is 145 million quid. So, des, you win the EuroMillion tonight, what are you doing tomorrow morning?

Speaker 2:

I'm having the day off. I've got about 18 WhatsApp chat groups with you boys. In most of them I think I'll just do a big picture of me going see you in a fortnight. I don't know, I don't know. Hands't know, hands down, I'm loving, loving, loving this podcast. I would easily stick a couple of mil in the business bank account and go come on, boys, let's take this to the moon. Yeah, um, I would. I would certainly stick a good 50 mil into a very safe incremental investment plan. I never would have said that two years ago, never, ever, ever. And then it would be a case of I love this idea booking somewhere like the dorchester or some lovely hotel in mayfair, saying to all my family cancel everything, quit what. Uh, phone in sick at work, meet me up there, the day's on me. We're gonna have dinner tonight and we're gonna talk about how the family's going to change forever, and I don't know what the rest would be. I was about to say you tight bastard. Only one day, yeah, one day's on me On a.

Speaker 1:

Tuesday oh mate, Go on, Chris. What are you doing?

Speaker 2:

£145 million in your bank tomorrow morning. The first thing I would probably do is cry for a long time all of like 15 seconds, maybe. No, I'd probably go to bed because I don't know whether I'd be able to cope. Otherwise I'd go to bed. How could you sleep? I'd get up the following morning. I'd drive to Sevenoaks. I'd buy myself a Ferrari or a Lamborghini and I would drive to the estate agents and buy the biggest house on the street, but I'd also buy the houses next door to that and next door to that and next door to that.

Speaker 2:

I've always said this this is one thing I've always said I would buy an entire road and I would put all of my friends in it. Fuck the family. They can have their own bit. They can live on their own. They don't need to live near me. They can have their own money. I'll sort them out of money as well. Make sure my brothers are both financially secure.

Speaker 2:

My mum and dad, and obviously my boys, would never want for anything again other than to ask, because they wouldn't get it for nothing. They'd have to ask for it properly. I don't think I'd give cash out. I've always said I'd never give cash to anybody because I'd want to know that that cash was being used properly. So, the boys I'd buy them a house, I'd buy them a nice car, I'd put money into a bank where they could probably draw a certain amount out each month for investment or something like that, not just to piss it out the wall, no, the wall no. But I would, because, at the end of the day, if you're not working for it, it's not real money, is it? Yeah, do you know? I mean, it can come and go. It'd be lovely to start a business, wouldn't it, and give your family jobs. Yeah, 100, well, 100, I mean, that comes without without saying. It doesn't it I'm talking about? I'm going to enjoy the money, obviously, I'm going to set myself up for life.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he would be if you I mean if well, you'd live off, unless you know a pretty mean, unless you know Mickey Carroll, he'd blow it all up the world.

Speaker 2:

I'd buy 18 sovs yeah, that would obviously come later on, wouldn't it? You couldn't spend? I probably could spend 145 million overnight, to be fair, but that comes without saying. If we're sitting here talking about business and mental health and stuff, we're not stupid people. We're going to invest stuff. But wealth and stuff we're not stupid people are. We're gonna invest stuff, but I would certainly enjoy it to the max because you get one last afternoon yeah, and that's it.

Speaker 1:

What about you? I think I would get my family and my wife and my kids and I'd disappear for a week to process it. I'd have a few chats with a very, very select few amount of people, maybe fly and come up with some sort of plan of how I'm going to tell people, who I'm going to tell, whether you'd want to tell everybody, whether you'd want it to be a public thing or not. I think that's big because people will come out of the cracks. Oh God, yeah, people will come out of the cracks. And I'm very, very nice, I'm generous. I said in the group the other day I'd give you my last. F said I want to build my own house. So I'd hopefully buy a plot of land, build my own house and then, on the land, build houses for my kids for the future. I'd sort some very close friends out. I'd just ring up their mortgage, find out who's your mortgage with mate, ring them up and just pay the mortgage off for them. Nice and wise, yeah. And then, so that sorted and I've always said I'd want to do good with the money because I'd feel that I don't deserve this money. What can I do? I've been given it for a purpose. So there's a couple of things. There's nothing for kids to do. I'd start up a load of youth boxing gyms or something. Oh, I love it. Buy the old church, buy the old derelict building and have a youth boxing gym where kids can go and have mentors and stuff and something that's sort of like a franchise maybe.

Speaker 1:

Um, and then I feel that there's something for people who veterans and things, people who really want to work, but they're stuck in this circle of I've got no house, so I can't get a job. I can't get, so I can't get a job. I can't get a bank account, I can't get this, I can't get that. I've always said construction. So what you do is you get these people that want to work. It's really strict Three strikes and you're out, because then that's a rough or a smooth. You put them up, you train them up. They then build the houses, you pay them a decent wage and then hopefully in two to three years they're back on their feet again. But all that time you'd have the money. You wouldn't be a multinational with 50,000 people, but if you could buy some land, build some houses not be a non-profit organisation, but to help people get out of the shit, and then I would go and have some fun with the rest of it.

Speaker 2:

I was going to say Ash has been in the the lottery.

Speaker 1:

He's manifested the crap out of that, honey I know, oh, mate, I'm flying me and it's me just taking my family to hotel you've created a community. Yeah, you've stopped hopelessness.

Speaker 2:

I'm pissing out the wall. I don't know where it went last.

Speaker 1:

I always think about things like this, like where there's so many people with so much money.

Speaker 2:

You could do so much good in the world it is true that you only need a certain amount of money before.

Speaker 1:

The rest is just doing nothing exactly, exactly, but no, and then I'd I'd probably go skiing by a scheme for me and my wife. Say this we had this conversation on saturday because I was like I'm gonna win the lottery, what are we doing? I said we're going skiing. She said no, we're fucking not.

Speaker 2:

We're going somewhere sunny, I'll come with you yeah, I'd love to do something like, yeah, like an old VW camper, yeah, and really really Remember, pimp my Ride, yeah, yeah yeah, do that, I'll put a TV in your van.

Speaker 1:

The Untold Podcast tour bus yeah that'd be good, wouldn't it?

Speaker 2:

That's what we'd do.

Speaker 1:

But no, I would have to do something. I'm 37. I'm 38 now, I don't know, 37 or 38.

Speaker 2:

Are you on this one? Yeah, I think so shit become a bit of a theme mate, isn't it this?

Speaker 1:

conversation has taken a downturn and yeah, just just enjoy it. Just enjoy it, man love it, so anyway that's a bonus episode. What would you do if you won 145 million quid um comment on this video? Hit us up on the Instagram. It's an interesting conversation to have. We'll see you next time. Cheers.
