Aye saw it on the news
113m I think. heard it was thought to be sold in Limerick.
C๚nts! I went for that, i would have been set for life :cool:
Maybe next time...
That'd automatically make them one of the 100 richest in Ireland I think. :eek:
Heard on the news that she'll earn close to 8,000 per day on interest alone. Some McNamarra woman from Limerick.
She wouldn't mind pumping some money into her local eL club would she? :D
Yeah, it said on RTE that she is now 17th on the Irish rich list. Even richer than Roy Keane and Colin Farrell put together :eek:. Also, it said in one of the papers that she has something like 11 more million than the Beckhams have.(:eek: again,lol) :DQuote:

I think it's more like 77th. The papers seem to have her life story all over the papers today. Her letter box will be jammed with spam begging mail by Tuesday. I'd keep it a closely guarded secret if I won it.Quote:

Surely she'll never be able to spend that amount of money? 9,000 interest per day. That's 3,000,000 per year!! :eek:Quote:

did anyone see the picture of her and her friends?
Yeah, but whats your point? (Planning a hit or something)Quote:

Apparently she has to pay tax on that? Would be at 47% including PRSI. Would still leave a nice bit left over though!
The rich lists are complete nonsense, incidentally. Having clients at work who are/should be on those kind of lists (there are others as well, like the 1000 biggest companies in Ireland, etc.), I have to have a good laugh whenever I read through them!
As far as I know it is tax free
See the papers are saying that she is related to the Keane family in Limerick :rolleyes: . For **** sake, who cares? Leave the woman alone, she won and fair play to her ;)
Dunno how you figured that out. It looks like you're calculating it using PAYE + PRSI, but PAYE is calculated on earnings (hence the E) and PRSI is pay-related (hence the PR). This is a windfall or capital acquisition, from which lotteries are exempt.Quote:

Whatever the rights or wrongs of winning a large sum of money - I feel that if one is a 50 million winner then one wins 50 million - in the US a 50 million winner wins 25 million.
I thought that there was a law/rule or whatever covering misleading advertising??? :confused: How can a 50 million lottery be promoted as such when one only wins half of it??? :confused:
Of course, one (:D) is open to correction on any - or all - of the above
That's what I was thinking alright. Had heard there was tax payable. Hardly makes much difference though - even E70m is nice! :)Quote:

we shouldn't be so bitter, nice to see someone from home winning it, and i really hope it went to someone who really needed some money and that it improves her and her family's life, not cause rows or splits like i have read in previous cases. I have no doubt she will donate some to charity etc also in ireland and abroad.
