50/50 invest and enjoy as following
I'll buy some Berkshire Hathaway, apple and s&p500 indexes plus some rental properties. Start a small business.
The other 50% will be spent on treating my friends and family. Going on holidays and personal entertainment 
Let me know if you need bank details  |

"Blow the lot on drugs and hookers  "
Nah in seriousness there is nothing I want or need so between giving it my kids along with donating to local run charities such food bank and the privately run Children's hospice....
To have more than I needed would be a waste, so I would make sure it went to those in need of it.

A million quid gives you 3.5 millions worth of investment income on BTL mortgages.
Create a very healthy business from that.
I'd add to my portfolio and get to work. Money makes money and creates challenges to be relished. |

I'd probably live similarly to what I do now, just without the toil of having to work and obviously with more travelling and enjoying my time. A million may not be enough to go crazy with but it would certainly buy me all the free time I could ever want and be comfortable enough on it. |

"I leave this island and set up home somewhere else.
How about Alabama? "
Nah. I’m Italy bound if I have the money. To the mountains. Peace and tranquility, and the Italian family lifestyle. I love it. |

Pay off all my debts, rent a nice house, nothing extreme, just a decent place somewhere with a garage, furnish it, nice set of clothes, fix up my car and buy plenty spares, splurge a little on my car, reasonable gaming PC, noce holiday cos i bloody need one, finance my dads racing career to pay him back for his support for me. I probably wont even get close to spending 250k, then put the rest into savings and gather interest. |

Buy a house for myself, then put the rest away. When old enough buy son a house and leave the rest for him when gone, so I know he is settled financially.
I’d say a last blast trip around the world but that seems a long long way away. |

"Let’s say that you won a million pound… how would you use it?
Are you the sensible type? Invest it?
Are you the type to blow it all? Lavish items?"
New car (Tesla model Y) new house (I live in the north east!) Save the rest… |

Buy my house, buy my sons flat for him. New car for me and him. Money away for my other two boys for when they are old enough. A lovely family holiday and I'd help out some fiends. |

Pay off debts, invest it and make it last. I'd rather have reasonable comfortable life for a long time than luxury for a short time and then back to normal. I'm perfectly happy being frugal and having security. Luke |

For the first time in my adult life I’m actually doing well financially. Decent job, nice car and a lovely little house near the sea. Just need a lovely lady to come home to now and I’m done. So I’d invest the money in property for when my children are older, maybe invest some in stocks and retire earlier. |

"1 million pound would get you a 3 bed semi in London according to a recent news article I seen!!!!"
Must be in some shit hole area of London. From experience you’ll be lucky getting a 2 bed flat in the nicer parts. Add a 0 at the end if you want a house! |

I was a bit weary of your couple of properties for 200K but I don’t know how cheap it is by you :p |

Letting managers of large and small global companies do the work, evens out risk. That's if I win |

What can you really buy with a million pounds these days? It doesn't last long,
So you buy that dream Aston Martin that's just cost 200k then servicing costs of three years at about 15k
A house 400k to 700k not much left lol
Gone are the days a million was a lot unfortunately.  |

No it’s not … but it’s more than most warm in a lifetime…. It allows you to be mortgage free, which for many is the biggest expense that they work for. So mortgage free = able to buy things you want, that don’t have to be an Aston |
