I'd agree - while I can happily daydream about being richER or thinNER, I know that I wouldn't want to win £40m in a Euro=lottery, which would change my life so completely, make me concerned about kidnapping threats on the children etc. Likewise, the whole size zero thing and obsession with calorie counting and dieting - definitely can be taken to extremes!

I know exactly what I want. Enough to do that would be cool, but I think any more might spoil the fun.
Sure, I might be rich enough to have the entire Colosseum relocated in my back yard. But then I'd never have the experience of travelling to see it.

it's only paraphrasing of Wallis Simpson...
We don't play the lottery, but we've already decided that if we won squillions above things like: decent house for us, decent houses for the offspring, parents and presents for siblings (plus the usual cars that work and one fabulous decent holiday and some investement for future pensions etc) we'd either give the rest away, or use our lives giving it away how we want to.
I really like the idea, for example, of turning up at my trainstation with a fleet of limousines to take the commuters to work that one day. Just for fun.
