I asked my year 1 classes "What would you do if you won the lottery?"
Here is my analysis;
A THREAD

Alice - "Get 27 gold dresses made for me so I look fancy"

We kick things off this week with a very specific, very personal choice. Alice loves gold. Also, I asked, the people making her dresses are well paid and have employee benefits. She's not running an underground sweatshop.

Katie - "Buy 1,000 hamsters"

Alright, quick maths. Online it's claimed the average cost for maintaining a hamster is £600 per year. So, £600 x 1,000 hamsters = £600,000. Basically means she's got one good year before a slow decline towards a hamster genocide...very bleak times.

Jack - "Lamborghini"

Look, it's his money yeah. He can do what we wants with it! Jack wants a Lambo. Could you actually imagine a 6 year old behind the wheel of a super powered sports car?..Jack can. Ice cold. He also said he'll spend all his money on this car. Kids these days.

Toby - "Yellow Lamborghini on a beach with my girlfriend"

Take that Jack! With your stupid car. Toby's got everything you have AND a girlfriend. I did ask "Can it be any beach?" He said yes. Not sure his girlfriend would enjoy a weekend in Skegness. Tbh, don't think anyone would

Emma - "Buy the world's biggest soup"

Bob Geldof wrote a stupid Xmas song. Emma is a girl of action. Feed the world? Don't just sing it. Buy a massive soup and literally feed everyone! I don't know how the soup stays edible or how you distribute it but don't worry Emma does.

Mikey - "Make a muffin"

I should probably stop asking them around lunchtime. He visibly drooled. Like a string of drool fell from his lip. He also went into huge detail about how he would "Cook up the muffin". I did enjoy him calling an oven a "Hot Cupboard". Might use that.

Ravi - "Build things. Things that people need"

Hospitals. Schools. Homes. Ravi's got it covered. He had an idea of a education 'hub' where, for example, if you are homeless. You can be taught and given tools to build your own house. Thus also learning a trade. Bloody genius.

Rosie - "Give it to people with no money"

Rosie, knocking it out the park this week. Didn't hesitate at all. Do I believe her...Yes. Her initial idea was to just throw it all off the roof. I asked for the specific location and time of when it would happen. She ignored me. Fair.

Wendy - "Have a gate on my house that no-one can get into"

Same Wendy. Same. No more unexpected visits from salesmen, preachers or Mum. Big gate with a big camera that nobody can get in. Wendy has got the right idea here. A well made security system does more than keep you safe

Ben - "Give it all to charity...buy a boat"

It takes a incredibly strong and secure person to give away millions of pounds to charity....Ben is not that guy. He thought about it. There was a fear in his eyes after he hypothetically gave away all his money. Enjoy the boat Ben.

Susanna - "Buy McDonald's"

Does this mean, she wants a share in the franchise...No. Susanna just wanted some chicken nuggets. She's a girl of simple pleasures. I said "You can have anything in the world" to which she replied..."Yes". So I suppose, she's happy enough already.

END OF THREAD.
