I am going to go win the UK Lottery
Uncategorized February 5th, 2010It’s a bit of an arb post for a Friday night but I have just seen the details for the Euro Lottery, which stands at $103 million. Yeah yeah your chances of winning it are next to zero but just imagine that you did strike it big…
… no more fighting with customers for payment, no more worrying about “cash-flow” in your SME – in short FREEDOM.
I was just looking at the last results: there were 164 people who won GBP2573 each. At the current exchange rate that is R31288. That’s better than a kick in the teeth for the cost of a ticket.
And if you hit one of the big prizes then you wouldn’t need to come back to work for a good while and wouldn’t need to lose any sleep fighting to keep your SME afloat.
Heck you could even become a philanthropist and casual wave and smile at the press as they photograph you handing over a couple of million!
If this sounds like your cup of tea then the lottery link is here!

Oh come on, the truly hardcore people relish the idea of fighting to get their SME off the ground, dealing with fraudulant customers and finding a product/market fit before they run out of money! Its the biggest adventure one can undertake!
If I won the lotto, I’d still be in business in my SME. Although I would have a team of 20 people, instead of just myself

Hahahah EXACTLY – 4 years in start-up mode plus all the tirals and tribulations that come with it has been absolutely exhausting both mentally and on my financial resources!
Sometimes would be nice just to sit back and enjoy myself rather than all the stress and adventure that comes with launching and running an SME!
