Life is full of mysteries – and one of the biggest is why anyone would ever publicly announce they’d won the lottery. It’s a guaranteed way to completely ruin the most incredible thing that will ever happen to you.
Joe and Jess Thwaite plan to give money to their nearest and dearest, so presumably reasoned that once random members of their family started buying yachts and castles, word would get out. Still, personally I’d have kept schtum.
Of course I’d share my winnings with the people closest to me – but I’d make it a condition that they never told anyone where it came from. And if they do, they have to give it back. There, sorted.
