Would you tell people if you suddenly received a large amount of money?

I'd tell my family, and four people I love. I'd buy each person one thing they really want (money is no objection), then move to London.

I wouldn't tell anyone, but they'd probably wonder where the sports car came from.

I was wondering this because my Dad bought a ticket for the Euro millions this week, and said that if he won he wouldn't tell me or my brother because then we'd have no incentive to try hard at school/college/university because we'd know we'd never really need a job.

I bet a large hcunk of people who live in London woudl LEAVE London if they had come into a bit of money.

I'd tell my family straight away. I'd tell my Dad he wouldn't have to work anymore if he didn't want to, and I'd buy my parents a house and stuff.

I'm not sure who else I'd tell though. It might become obvious when I buy myself a mansion in the countryside...

Equally though, perhaps you've chosen your course in life out of the (understandable) need or want to have money. If I knew I was going to be copiously wealthy for the rest of my life, I'd probably do things rather differently.

Just getting through uni hardly matters in the end, so I think it's a bit of a strange object for your Dad to have...
