I see it is £107,000,000 tonight...just wondering how much interest would that amount too on a weekly basis.

[scotman]

Assuming 2% net it is about £32,600 per week

[sara3]

I could spend that.

[scotman]

^^^^^^^^^

Sorry that was last week's figure. £107M at 2% net/ annum = £41,100 per week.

[sara3]

I could spend that, too :o)

[Arti]

If you had that amount, you could probably attract a return of about 4% net, giving you about £82,000 a week. Still not as much as Mr Rooney.

Arti

I was been conservative, not being familiar with sums of that size. You are probably in the right area.

[albaqwerty]

the interest would make me a very nice birthday present :)

[Arti]

Yeah, Scotty, I think that neither of us would complain whether it was your approximation or mine ;)

[douglas9401]

Gawd, that's as much as some professional footballers earn for all their hard work of a week. :)

I won a tenner on Wednesday, think I'll invest it in this racing certainty. How hard can it be to win? :D

[Arti]

If I won that, I might even stop shopping at Netto.

[starone]

I could really live it up on that amount.
Arti - congratulations on attaining your avatar. I see you meant it when you said it was going to be a collapsed balloon.

[Arti]

I wish I was a criminal because I'd probably be luckier, regards winning it; you're always hearing from forensics about it being a one-in-a-billion chance that someone else committed the crime, so they must be quite lucky.

[Arti]

Thanks, starby :) Actually I had higher aspirations for my avatar, but that 'postversation' we had the other night made me change my mind.

[starone]

Well arti, I am very fond of 'old' sayings, perhaps because I am old. One comes to mind at the moment 'You can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself' or something like that. Sometimes I can't remember them exactly, but it gets my meaning over, I think.

[joggerjayne]

The only way most of us can make that sort of money is by sensible gambling.

[SIRandyraven]

At my age and with no children ...I'm almost 50 ..I would draw down the capital also...say spend £50 million and leave the remainder in my will to the cats home

But even spending the 50 million would be a challenge
