Would you still Homebrew if you won $58 000 000?

[Timmsy]

i think there would be a alot years that would be a total blur and then i would spend the rest on health care to keep me going in my old age....

[Clean Brewer]

I would build a real brewery and do it properly!

Aye, and there's the rub.
If you build yourself what is basically a microbrewwery, it will turn into work, and all your old and new mates will expect free beer.
And if you think looking after $58 mil is not work, you have another think coming. There are plenty of smart operators out there who will look after your money, but often they will do better out of it than you.
And all your relatives, and anyone who has ever called him/herself your friend, will expect your assistance to help pay off their mortgage, plastic etc etc etc. That's not to mention all the oodles of charities who will all present a pressing case to relieve you of a large part of your fortune.
All right, you try to keep it quiet. However, everyone who has ever known you will wonder why you chucked in your job, upgraded your house to one costing 8 times what your old one did, and how come you now drive a Porsche.
So, you decide to look after the money yourself, but then you have just acquired yourself a full time investment managers job.
Don't give me $58 mil. I have enough trouble looking after $2 or 3 mil as it is.
Have a nice day.

Warra,
Sounds like you've had a fair bit of experience in this field???
Is the above what happened to you?

Hows the Mansion holding up? Oh, and the Porsche? Have the relatives, friends and charities stopped bugging you yet?

[Clean Brewer]

Well, the winners have been found, its 4 mates(shit only 15 million each) and 2 are single(anyone gay/straight?) and 2 are married, come on, is it anyone on here?????????

My partner says I need to find some mates..

I'd keep brewing

But I'd probably upgrade my gear

Cheers

I'd keep brewing, on my new Island on which it would be illegal not to own a fermenter and to not HB, the island would have it's own currency of coconuts and empty longnecks, and anyone found not to like beer will be deemed a witch and burnt on a pile of roasting grain

[KEG]

what a waste of grain

I would sh!t the bed if i won 58 million...

[Kevnlis]

I would sh!t the bed if i won 58 million...

So? Nothin new for you anyway...

[Tipsy]

I would sh!t the bed if i won 58 million...

I would too, just so I could pay someone to clean it.

No use having all that money and not being an arsehole

I won a meat tray last nite
but I`ll probably still homebrew.

[warra48]

Chaps and chapettes......

the money's been won, and it's gone.

Can we all agree we will continue to homebrew???

End of thread????

[ryan]

Not really.
I said I would PROBABLY still homebrew.
There`s probably not much more to be said on the thread, but things don`t just finish on your say so, you know.
Moderators do that when there`s a problem, and I don`t see one at the moment.

[lethaldog]

I will be brewing till the day i die ( which wont be long away if i dont stop drinking so much ) $ 58,000,000 or not my beer tastes wont change and nor will the flavour of commercial crap, open a brewery? i doubt it but maybe a couple of new shiny conicals would appear in the shed

[ryan]

I will be brewing till the day i die ( which wont be long away if i dont stop drinking so much ):lol:

I`ll always remember the advice I was given on homebrewing, with a firm hand on my shoulder and a steely gaze into my eye........"It`s a fact...{he said}......the more you drink.... the more you save".
And he was right!
Thanks Barney.
This one`s for you.

ryan, ryan, you should know me better by now. most of my posts are tongue firmly in cheek, with the odd attempt at being serious or helpful.
did you deliberately miss the triple and quadruple ??? and ????

That's a brilliant idea Boonie!
And maybe I could get myself hooked up to one of those breathing machines so I wouldn't have to do it all myself

[Timmsy]

The Coopers still brew.... Look at there "home brewery" at Regency park hahahahahaha
