    £10m I got.

    I decided to spend it by buying a house worth £600m which I've now realised I can't afford due to the fact that it is 6000% more than my income was. I'm in debt up to my eye balls and I'm going to lose the house.

    I obviously blame the lottery for causing me this problem as the money I received somehow forced me to forget even the basics of economics and spend considerably more than I could afford. I take no responsibility for this at all.

    Yours,

    £600m is only 60% more than your income? Wow, you must earn a few quid. Mansford is looking for investors, if you fancy it?

    Fair point well made.

    Only one thing - it is 6000% not 60% of your income

    or to be precise, 5900% more than your income

    every 10m the price goes up is 100% more than the 10m you have

    60% more than you £10 million is £16 million.

    £600 million is 5900% more than £10 million.

    I have an enormous cocaine habit and it has destroyed my life. The Peruvian drug cartel at the source of my problem is in no way to blame and should not be held accountable, particularly by those who would seek to justify their own habit. There is no lineage or connection between the source and the problem, despite what the experts say and demonstrate. This is my own monster, I created it myself by my own freewill and must deal with the consequences.

    I never wanted our club to get the money from Sky when we won promotion to the Premier League. I never wanted us to sign the likes of Georgi Hristov, Darren Barnard, Ashley Ward, Jan Aage Fjortoft. When we received our Sky funded parachute payments, I never wanted us to sign the likes of Bruce Dyer, Craig Hignett, Neil Shipperley. As I never enjoyed watching these players, nor cheered their goals and performances, I can claim I'm not a hypocrite when berating Sky for giving money to football clubs to use as they see fit, whilst enjoying the benefits the Sky money brought to my club.

    And therein lie-eth the dilemma. And well illustrated, if I may say so. It's all very well when you're on a high, it's the come downs you have to watch out for, they don't warn you about that bit. It should come with a government health warning, then you can weigh up the pros and cons and decide whether or not it's worth the rush.

    Agree 100% ST, fed up of people slating sky constantly when they don't have a clue what they're talking about. People on here like to make their own conclusions and choose to completely ignore the facts
