Pay off my card, buy that house in the country (nothing big, just a pretty house) and get another boxer dog.
Spend hours walking with my dog in the country then chill out in front of my log fire.
I have it all planned out  |

I'm assuming you mean £'s ...
Y'know I don't think £1m is that much any more. Pay for a house in the SE and you won't have that much change left for a life changing experience.
I'd be boring and try and invest wisely. I wouldn't blow it all on luxuries or extravagant spending, I'd save that for when I have £100m |

A world of my own |
Buy the cottage I currently rent.
Make a few changes to it and re do the garden
A car that isn't broken but not a flash one.
Pay off debts
A few nice holidays for the kids and I
Buy a couple of properties cheaply, do them up and let them out to people who may otherwise struggle.
Put some money away for my boys futures.
I'd not quit my job.

Add to my property portfolio, and start portfolios for each of my kids, the extra money should get them both through uni, and ad a much needed top up for them when they start work |

Buy a lovely house for the kids and I, take the kids somewhere they really want to go. Take the opportunity to work part time rather than full time, learn to drive and buy a car, put some money away for both of them and some for my retirement and carry on as normal 
I'm really not very wild  |

It won't buy the place I'm living in that's for sure.
I'd rent a place for a bit and tell all the lacal gold diggers and see how much fun I could get. |

Pay off my current mortgage and look to put down a further deposit to buy 2 or 3 additional new builds.
£1million wont last that long, so investing in bricks and morter is the sensible choice |

Be nice to have the security that sort of money brings but my needs are simple and I probably wouldn't change that much.
Perhaps buy a cottage somewhere near the coast in a rural area with some land and a real fire secure my son's future get another collie and use what's left to help people make their dreams come true... |

Pay off my mortgage, invest some for my children, donate a good chunk to animal welfare charities, and go lay on a nice warm beach for a couple of weeks while I worked out what to do next. I have no need to go splashing out buying 'stuff'...it's travel and new experiences that get me excited, so I'd be laying on the beach almost certainly somewhere in the Carribean thinking about what to do next. There'd be a US East Coast trip, a US West Coast trip, and a couple of weeks exploring in Alaska. Climbing and ski-ing in the Alps would become an every year event as opposed to just whenever I can afford to do them. I'd also head across to see Singapore and Hong Kong. Also on the list would be a couple of motorbike trips criss-crossing Europe...including getting to see Russia and also the Scandinavian and Baltic countries.
Maybe I should go buy a Euromillions ticket then... |

Have you forgotten "to have fun"??? Or you've left it to our imagination?   |

Pat of my mortgage and buy a property in either Brighton or Cornwall for weekends away. Pay off all loans etc, buy a new car.
Pay off my mum and dads mortgage and buy my brother a flat. I reckon I'd have about £100k left, I'd start a business with that x

"One think surely this thread is telling:
We all have debts "
My only debt is my mortgage, I'd pay that off do my house and garden up, invest in a holiday home that we'd also rent out.
Fred would probably start his own business. I'd carry on working so life would carry on pretty much the same other than we'd have more holidays and lots of new experiences.
We'd then be able to help the children through university and on onto the housing ladder in the future. |
