    I would buy a big house and a nice car and then stuff for all my family and friends and give the rest away. What else can you do with a lot of money!

    beer, drugs, hookers, cars probably.

    altho thats not the ideal plan, but it'd probably be what would happen.

    Pay of my Mum's and Dad's mortages. Bu my own house, car and finish driving lessons. Save a bunch for when I get older/for my children when I have them. Fund my studies/postgraduate studies. Usual things.

    Then buy a house and rent it to students as a source of income :D

    4 million would be a perfect amount :(
    All the usual stuff, house, car. Would also enable me to stay at home when I have kids which would be my dream :)

    A huge country house with a massive cellar that would be kitted out with a stage, amazing THQ sound system, Tama drum kit, guitar and bass stacks and shitloads of guitars and basses.

    Then a TVR Chimaera for me, a Jag for Mrs. T. and a fire engine.

    give some to my family and mates...probably a bit to charity

    for myself, a big house, an expensive car, get loads of birds, loads of coke, loads of drink, loads of parties...just go mad generally.

    I would buy the old mill building downstream from our canoe club and the field its in, and have it renovated into a really good clubhouse upstairs, with showers in the changing rooms. It would have a small gym area with some weights. The ground floor would be the boatshed, and I would replace some of the old boats. I would clear a couple of the trees at the edge of the field so there could be a pontoon from which to launch the boats onto the canal. The field will have a car park that is tarmacced and then the rest of it we would use for duathalons.

    That also seems to be a good idea. I might tell Mum/Dad/Other half though, or they might think I held up a bank or something :chin:

    I think it would cause no end of problems and arguments in our house. I would want to invest it and spend it cautiously and wisely, everyone else would want to live it up.

    "...Or, a winner can opt for anonymity, which is absolute. Those opting for anonymity can be confident that Camelot will make every effort to ensure that their wish is respected and cannot, in the event of any media enquiry, comment in any way on whether a winner has won, if they have chosen to remain anonymous."

    As for what I'd do with it, just the usual - houses, cars, give to family, friends and charities.

    iguana - Fast women, drugs and alcohol. Then i'd waste the rest

    i'd probably end up doing the same, ideal plan would be buy a nice apartment , cars, guitars ,lots of cool stuff.

    then lots of holidays, buy a bar etc.

    likeliness is i would be out partying all the time and waste the cash.

    I wouldn't let anyone know for a start. I'd use the money to pay for my university education and to move away. Once I'd done all I needed to do, I would give nearly all of the rest of it to charity. I wouldn't need all that money.

    Pay for a nice house for my mum and give her enough to live off (comfortably) til she dies. Quit my job before I've found another one. Give a few thousand (maybe £25,000 each) to the two charity-esque places I have been to (both schools - one for underprivileged girls in Nairobi, the other for children with mental disabilities in Colchester). Learn to drive and buy a nice car. Get my hair done with expensive people. Buy a lot.
