Antiques Roadshow guest's show first £1million valuation - but refuses to sell www.mirror.co.uk/tv/tv-news/antiques-roadshow-guest-stunned-record-31952849
So If I had an item that I was told was worth a million I 100% would sell , I’d sell to make my life easier I work hard as a nurse and am getting older , and I’d make my kids life easier .
What would you do ?
Absolutely it would have to go especially with how things are these days. I would be selfish to start and get my hips and knees done privately so I wouldn't be in so much pain
sallylester1 that's not selfish that's getting yourself sorted so you can be pain free
Yes I'd sell it as quick as possible, obviously they already have money so need to sell, must be nice to be that position
They must obviously be quite well off not to have to sell but yes I would sell to help my family out.
I would sell it and pay off my childrens’ mortgages and treat the whole family. Unfortunately I have nothing of great value.
I would sell it. It would make life easier. I could pay off the mortgage and have money in the bank for when it was needed. Unfortunately I don't have anything of value!
Definitely would sell in fact my legs would be moving so fast I'd probably have a dust trail behind me.
I think most people who are not minted would sell. I can manage on what I get but what good would a £1million item do just sitting around. I would help lots of people and have a few treats myself.
No brainer.absolutely I would.If the news were broadcast on the street where I live someone else would fast aquire and sell it ifI didn't lol.
100%...l need to provide a secure roof over my head, food and look after myself in my old age when l can no longer work and need care
I would sell it. We need a bigger house with an extra room or two. My mum is also struggling so could give her some. But unfortunately haven't got anything in this house that would cost anywhere near that much.
I would be frightened to have something in my house that was so high value especially if it had been on TV
Inviting thieves
I would say yes unless it had a real strong sentimental value. But once I heard the price sentimental goes out the window. Sell, sell, sell.
Definitely I would sell, not only would it change my life. I wouldn't be able to afford the insurance and would be terrified of breaking/it being stolen etc. You can take a photo.
I remember watching a women who had a hideous teapot, which was worth a fortune. She obviously sold it and from the proceeds she bought a house, she said" I love in a teapot" it made me smile.
If I had something worth a million pounds, I would sell to make my family more secure. It would help in our old age and help my grown up children and their families.
