"what do peple think i should buy"
Gold as cheap as possible or Diamonds. Nothing much else has kept its value or risen in recent times.
20K isn't much so try and invest it.
Spend 5K on treats - invest the rest in other areas, some on jewels, some in property etc |

"its less than a years salary ..dont become a weekend millionaire and buy yourself a treat "
Actually it's more than a years salary for a vast amount of people in the U.K.
It depends on your needs and wants. For myself I'd like the security of knowing it's there if I lost my job, became ill and couldn't work, needed to help a loved one, things like that, so I'd find a secure, low risk investment and put it away for the future. |

It might be for you to some it's two years or more. I would say invest half and spend half and ignore the thousands of private messages  |

"average wage is £27k pa I understand for those interested
Definitely keep some back for a rainy day. "
I am of the understanding the average wage is more like 18k. Maybe in cities it goes up to 20k. |

I was imagining winning the 108 million today
wow what a sum..
what fun it would be planning what to do with that..
invest 100 million and gift out a million each for the kids to buy homes
buy myself a small place in London (with a parking space for weekends away.
buy off the old man and send him packing to a golf haven so he will be comfortable and out my way.
build a huge indoor outdoor aviary for my babies next to an all weather pool and hot tub.
invite my sunbathing friends round to relax.
employ a house keeper that cooks so I never have to look at a cooker again or clean.
would be worth every penny.
that is what dreams are made of..  |

Seriously though, spend something on a dream item and something on pratical stuff (invest, mortgage, car)...
