You've just won £10million. It's in your acccount. Tell me your next 24 hours.

Talk to siblings/parents about divvying it up between us. There's quite a few of us

With my bit (couple mill), buy a house. Modest 4 bedroom somewhere nice. Properly connected with Cat6 inside, of course!

Try to use the rest to derive some kind of income, perhaps sufficient not to need to work, if poss.

Find some way of taking my cat with me, then go travelling a bit. Cheap hotels, backpacking, that kind of thing.

Nothing fancy for me. I don't want a yacht or **** to tie me down. Or expensive stuff to worry about being nicked.

Nope, I like my '03 Yaris, and the only thing I really want for is a house/ debt free future.

Put £9 million straight into a savings account and put down a healthy deposit on a house near my parents on the coast with some land available for a garage to be built to have a selection of nice motors to play with.

That is exactly what I would do. But not the part about moving in next to your parents of course.

Wonder where the other 15 million went

Well not next to them, same village

I'm not interested in drawing attention to myself with flashy cars. I'd probably just buy a top of the range Duster and maybe a 108 to use around town.

House shopping, car shopping, investment shopping.

Buy a few beers.

Over the next few weeks start taking "sickkies" until you hand in your notice due to a change of life circumstances !! (They'll think you're ill).

Go on a World Cruise - to try to recover !!

Sell up to buy a sea shack. Which you do but buy the ****off farm oop Rord !!
Convert the barn into an awesome garage/workshop and tinker in it making stuff !

It's a little disturbing that we've had several responses that the first thing someone would do on finding they had enough money to last them for the rest of a very, very comfortable life and then some, is to do their bit to make it harder on people struggling to get on the property ladder by buying up houses to rent out to them. You're rich! You don't have to create more pressure on the housing market just for fun!

Why an estate and an X5?! Surely you mean E Class coupe

They'll be the sensible cars.

Need longer to decide on the toy car. :cool:

Haha, I think cars would be a serious danger to me. Could easily blow a mil on cars alone. Then I'd need a giant garage, so a bigger house and so on

As for my fun car, Jaguar F Type SVR and an S65 Coupe!

If you can't beat 'em. Not sure why it's disturbing.

Because if you have £10m, you have beaten 'em. There's no need to join them at that point.

I hope these threads aren't common - I get enough of this on facebook.

I genuinely tried to 'like' this post...

I don't think 10 mill is even enough to buy the latest Zonda is it?

martin363 · 28 Aug 2017 at 01:54

Nothing different to normal - I would just enjoy the experience, relax and enjoy a smug feeling for a few weeks. Then I would see.

Beren · 28 Aug 2017 at 02:12

Pay off all my debts, book an appointment with a tax accountant. Sleep.

iBSOD · 28 Aug 2017 at 02:16

1. put 9.9m in savings
2. buy vega 64 liquid and htc vive

hubblefrog · 28 Aug 2017 at 05:45

If I won £10M then I will:
1. 10% for church.
2. 10% donate to charity.
3. Half of the remaining will be invested in exchange traded fund.
4. The remaining will be invested in retirement fund.
