    No because you cant keep it forever and its not yours
    but if you borro a million pounds than you are close to a millionare.

  2. Jack G says:

    Yes but no yes because you would have the million pounds. No because you’re just borrowing.

  3. Emma R says:

    I think you are not a millionare due to the fact you borrowd it and not won it. Furthermore you did not ask to borrow it and that is not being responsible .

  4. Annabelle W says:

    No, I think you wouldn’t be a millionare due to the fact that it is not yours to keep and it’s borrowed (hopefully!). In addition, if you did steal it (by accident :/ ) you could get caught by the Police and get arrested!

  6. Katy M says:

    Yes because you have a million pounds now until you give it back you will be :)!!

  7. Clare Woodgate says:

    Is it different if you buy a million pound house which has a mortgage? For those who aren’t sure, a mortgage is money lent by the bank which, in time, you pay off.

  8. Olivia A says:

    No because if you have a million pounds which you have borrowed then it is not rightfully yours and you have to give it back.

  9. Bradley says:

    No you wont be a millon air because you will not keep it foever you only keep it for a day 🙂 🙂 😀

  10. Katie W says:

    I think yes and no. Yes because you have got a million pounds in your hands and no because you are borrowing a million pounds from a freind or someone else.

  11. Henry R says:

    You would be for a certain amount of time untill you give the money back, after all, you’re only borrowing the money.

  12. M Oliver says:

    I don’t think you would be a millionaire.Due to the fact,you would be borrowing the money and you would have to save your money up if you were a real millionaire and if you borrow the money you would have to pay it back in the end.

  13. Matthew C says:

    No because you willhave to pay it back.

  14. Sally M says:

    No, because it’s not yours to keep. Once you give it back you will no longer be a millionaire

  15. Jodie Q says:

    No due to the fact that you would have to pay the money back and you would just have the money that you started of with before you borrowed the money. 8)

  16. Ella D says:

    I think yes and no. Yes because you would have a million pound. And no because its not
    yours and it wouldn’t feel the same .

  17. Alice C says:

    Except from paying the mortgage, why would you even need to borrow one million pounds? And no. You are not a millionaire because you don’t keep the money. However, you do have the money so you could class yourself as a temporary millionaire.

  18. Alex W says:

    Well yes and no.Yes because you would have one million pounds.No because you would have to have a life time supply of one million pound to make yourself a real millionaire.

  19. Jade R says:

    No, I don’t think you would be a millionaire because if you, unfortunately, stole the money, you could get caught and you would have to give it all back and maybe even pay more. Therefore, I don’t think you would be one.

  20. Archie G says:

    The answer : no.
    The reason : your just borrowing.
    The alternetive : if you OWNED a million pounds, not BORROWED, only then will you be a millionaire

  21. Lexie N says:

    I would say no because you are borrowing it and you have to give the money back .

  22. James A says:

    No because you won’t have the money forever so your not officially a millionare.

  23. Gabriela R says:

    No because you have borrowed it mabye somebody you don’t know and it not yours and you need to return it to the rightful owner.
