So you win/inherit a large amout of money. (1million for arguments sake)
What would you spend it on, and how would you change your life as a result?
You inherit £1,000,000…what to do next?

I'd save it, invest some of it, and spend the rest of my life living off of it. If handled smartly, I have no reason to ever actually work again. Meaning I can spend the rest of my life pursuing my hobbies. A bit of a boring answer really, as when I think about things I want that I can't afford, there's a very general list.
-
1. Get a sailing license
2. Buy a boat
3. Invite friends
4. Sail until money runs out
5. Back to normal life. -
Buy a Mansion.
Chill out with David Bowie.
Mingle with the Honeys of the Showbiz industry.
Get a Butler. Found some companies.
Order strong materials and construct an impenetrable costume.
Fight Crime by night.
-
Rent a hooker for the rest of my life.
Edit: Obviously change when they start to get old too.

I'd do this. I don't care for work that I can't direct the creative flow of so being able to spend my days on nothing but what I want would be cool.

9. Do something smart like saving or investing… dunno"Going against the flow? Just means you're swimming in place. One day you are too tired to paddle, and suddenly you drown. Whole thing was pointless and now you're dead THE END. Now, going with the flow is where it's at - and that's the dandy way to live." - Space Dandy

Make sure I did not get it from Mafias or Yakuzas.

I'm such a boring person, I think I'd just put it into my savings account and continue living like nothing ever happened. I don't have any debts, there's nothing I would want to have atm that I just don't buy because I can't afford it. Sure, I'd buy some new clothes and stuff, but nothing really extravagant.
I certainly wouldn't stop working and/or studying. -
Oh. Withdraw it all in $1 bills and bath in them. After waiting a long time for it all to come out.
-
Send mom dad on a world tour.
Invest the rest
-
Flee from Brazil. Then give some to my family and donate some to still have atleast 70% of it.
What to do with the rest? Now it's a big list and I'm tired to do it. -
-
Convert to money I can actually use
-
Invest half in something
-
Spend rest on Skittles, hookers, and Mick Jagger
-
-
I'd probably share it among my family and some friends. Then invest my part in some properties, take 6 months off and travel all around the world. And continue life as normal as possible.
-
I don't really know what I would do, I just know It wouldn't end good for anyone.
-
I'll slap myself and wake up,because I know it never happens to me. :happy:

Way to kill the thread
-
Atheists are buzz-kills.
-
I'd build a home recording studio and stock it with plenty of great instruments.
-
Donate 1/10th to Charity, as per a deal I made if I ever made that much.
Buy a new car that I constantly don't have to fix. Save enough to finish school, and enough for a good down payment on a house. I guess invest some too.
Oh, and every one of my friends gets to go out with me and get a nice hat of any style, because everyone deserves a nice hat.

Start a mafia bossiness for more doe.
-

-
1. Convert to USD
2. Buy a PS3
3. Put the rest in a relatively risk free asset earning ~2-3%
4. Go on with the plans I already have for my life, maybe spending it when I wanted to buy a house. -
@Furnace:
Way to kill the thread
Hehe I'm sorry. Because I'm a negative guy. If I have £1,000,000,perhaps I'd go around the world to make myself more optimistic and self-confident
-
1. Buy a house for my mom so she won't bug me.
2. Donate the rest to political campaigns or certain organizations. -
The answer for this thread is: Give it to Sea.
End/ -
Pay off debts and fly to Jamaica.
No my bad, what am I thinking? I'd give it all to Sea. Everyone should do the same.
! So I can rob him and take the collective amount.
-
Best computer EVER
University fees
Nice car
Save+wait for when housing prices fall to buy myself a decent house (Not a mansion or whatever)
Tell Sea that I've deposited £1m in his account and that the bank must have made an error or whatever. -
@Sea:
The answer for this thread is: Give it to Sea.
End/And Sea is stolen 99,99% by Atheist. I'd invite all of you to a big party and make you drunk :happy:
-
I'd invite all of you to a big party and make you drunk :happy:
Why would you want to make us all drunk?
Smells like a sinister ulterior motivation.
-
to steal all OUR money, obviously.
i predict that there will soon be a poll with 'give everything to Sea' as a poll option.

Pay off all debts me and my family have.
Then immediately afterwards reserve flight tickets to Japan for me and my four best friends.
Treat myself to some cool stuff.
Save the rest until next summer, without having to worry about paying the rent and all that. Also visit all my friends who live far away from me.
When summer 2011 comes around, go traveling again: Britain, USA, Hungary.
If there's anything left after all of this, save it. -
Probably give away 90 percent of it to trusted charities.
Living a life of luxury sounds boring.
-
convert it to the cheapest currency and the lowest amount they use"1 something"
then get a pool and fill it with the money, and then I just jump in and I'll be
literally swimming in a pool of money!!
edit: spend it for the rest of my life.
-
I'd add it to the pile. Maybe roll it up and smoke it. It'll be enough to cover one weekend of shareholder expenses.
But in all seriousness, i'd buy a new car that's reliable (nothing fancy), start a good trust fund for my nephew… be cool and take trips to see my family around the country and get em all something nice. I'd buy a good house or condo and put the rest in savings and work my normal job strees free.
