Now their family have more than enough, they don't have to worry that they will not be able to provide the basic needs of their family. They know what's like having nothing for sure they will be wise in handling their finances so they will not end up broke. They need to make an investment and hopefully they will have a good financial advisor.

I remember reading about this - these guys did not want to call the premium number incase they never won as they were that broke. I hope as they have gone from one extreme of being unemployed to being millionaires that it won't ruin their life and end up like the UK Lotto Lout . For those of you who don't know him I suggest you Google him, he spent almost 10m and is not working in a biscuit factory.

I've always wanted to go on safari, so maybe a trip to Kenya.

I have always wanted to see the great wildebeest migration I always see in the nature channels. Also the Okavango delta wildlife sanctuary..

don't understand the fascination of going to africa where anything could happen to you and no one would care (in africa). the guy has never been abroad. what is it 28 miles to france from england. commend them for staying in their home town to live, but i would double think about scuttling the africa trip. i would rather go to oklahoma city during tornado season than trying to fend off lion and tiger attacks and the locals with spears.

And avoid hosting too many wild parties featuring drugs and adult entertainers.

Good on them for thinking of traveling to Africa first...the Maasai Mara is calling their name! They might also want to consider visiting Rwanda, Zambia, Uganda, South Africa, Ghana, and Tanzania.
