Year 12s: what will be the first way you research your future options? >>

If you won £10m what would you do with it?

Scroll to see replies

I wouldn't "win" 10 million because i'm not daft enough to waste my money buying lottery tickets ...because let's face it, you've got a better chance of getting hit by lightening than winning the jackpot ...

If I aquire 10 million it will be off my own back.....

Get to work then.

This is why men are smarter :smile:

If you are indeed a guy then I think your very presence falsifies that hypothesis, judging by your name that is.

Give about 9 million to my mum and that’ll help her pay for bills and anything she wants. A nice new house, send money to charity and family who are poor/sick. And get anything i’ve ever wanted. This is so unlikely though.

Probably spend a million or two on expensive purchases, then leave the rest in an account and live off the interest.

Pay off mine and my sister's student debts
Buy my sister and her a fiancée a house as a wedding present
Make sure my mum was happy
Go on a cool holiday
Then probably save the rest until I'm ready to spend it

I would help my mum and dad pay of the mortgage, buy them some stuff and give some money to charity. I would also give it to my auntie and uncle.

Just because one man isn't smart doesn't mean the rest aren't :P

10 million pfc's

A few properties, some nice cars, build a walk in wadrobe and fill it with expensive clothes. Give a good amount to my family and charity. Save the rest though.

Is it really worth that much? :redface:

I'd put it into a Barclays bank and just sleep.

People on here don't seem to get that £10 million isn't all that much. Assuming inflation runs to 2% per year, you can afford to spend £90k per year (in real terms - by 2073 you'll be spending £250k to maintain the same standard of living) for 60 years. That's comfortably well-off, but not uber-rich. The stuff most people are suggesting they'd do would probably bankrupt themselves in under 10 years. Many lottery winners end up no better off in the long-term because they spend just as quickly as they win.

I'll stick with the "boring" option and invest most of it. Of course I could splash out a little (new laptop, new phone, a car when the time comes), but I have no use for a mansion or fancy car right now. Unless it's a 911 GT3 or something that'll rocket up in value.

How much is a house (especially in London)? And currently a 3 year degree costs about £50k including living costs.

So your budget isn't going to work I'm afraid.
