All 10000 pounds to physics or maths research (the researchers how need them most).
After all, all my fortune will one day go to scientific research,I won't make children.
I will devote myself on science anyway.
Well perhaps philosophy and music as well.

Invest in bitcoin

£1000 on a macbook
£5000 on a watch

the remainder will go in the f-type fund :colondollar:

£10,000

£2,500: I'd go on a shopping spree for each of my little cousins and brother, £500 on each
£500: to my older brother (the other one isn't seeing anything)
£500: to my aunt and uncle
£2,500: to the charity I volunteer for
£1,000: I'd go on a shopping spree to get a sort of 'present' for everyone I'm close to
£500: on books I'd donate to the library
£500: on toys to donate to our local children's hospital

And now, for the selfish purchases:

£500: on books - my, what a glorious trip to Waterstone's that would be (I'd spend a bit in this awesome independant bookstore there is, as well - y'know, gotta support the independants!)
£500: on make-up
£1,000: on clothes and shoes

I took it to mean they were referring to the fact you had to spend it in a day. If you put it in savings, you'd be planning on spending that money (with it's additions) outside of that one day.

Don't worry, I was going to out money in savings for my little cousins and brother until I realized this!
