    A couple who scooped £101million on the EuroMillions draw have vowed to make 20 of their friends millionaires overnight as they give away a large chunk of their jackpot.
    Dave and Angela Dawes, who share a £70 per week one-bedroom flat, had only played twice before when all their numbers came up on Friday.
    Father-of-two Mr Dawes, 47, said he and his partner Angela, 43, a volunteer for the British Heart Foundation, were watching the draw live as all their numbers came up.

    I think it was a bad move to give away 20 million lol.
    It's like chewing gum, if you give it to one then everyone around you suddenly wants some.

    Anyways, its their money and I hope they spend it wisely.

    i agree with that , 20 million is not an small amount of money to give , they could donate with to charity or something to help kids

    I consider myself to be luckier than they are. What is money? It can't buy happiness, it usually corrupts.

    That's the most stupid thing ever, why make 20 of your (fake) friends millionaires when you can help 20 institutions for the poor/children.
