Former RAF medic can clear debts and mortgage after choosing £300k over Lamborghini

A former RAF medic named Ryan Briggs won £300,000 in a competition organized by Elite Competitions, which he entered for £4.28. The prize gave him the option of either a 2026 Lamborghini Temerario valued at £270,000 or the cash, and he chose the money to pay off his mortgage and clear his debts. Briggs, who served in the RAF for 23 years including deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Caribbean during Hurricane Irma, transitioned to healthcare after the pandemic. He and his wife, Kelly, who met while serving in the RAF, are now financially secure after his win. The couple was transported by helicopter to select their prize, with Briggs noting the comfort and safety of the flight compared to his past experiences flying RAF helicopters.
