£117M - What would YOU do?
 

I'd see out my current contact (29th April 2011)
The wife would resign 1st thing Monday.

Would keep our current house because we love it. We would probably buy a place in the countryside with enough rooms to have lots of family and friends stay over. An indoor and outdoor pool would be a must, as would a tennis court.

Once clear from my contract I'd start planning a worldwide holiday - maybe a 6 month trip (1st class of course :) ) which should be enough time to also find our country bolthole and have any necessary works completed.

Even allowing for £10M on the property and a couple of hundred grand each on 6 months travel - that still leaves a stink load of cash which would accumulate interest at ???? £10K a day???

I'd definately give a few of the guys (guys includes both sexes in my lingo) enough £££ to allow them to resign / retire in a heartbeat.

Nice to dream - which I am allowing myself to do for a little while before the crash of reality comes hammering down and I realise I STILL have to look for a job soon :(

But then again - Maybe not :)

I would pay for a scientific study to work out if some of the staff members I work with on a daily basis could be substituted for trained Monkeys.

Set my kids up well for schooling and a happy life. Ditch the missuse and enjoy all the special privileges that wealth tends to bring :norty: Drive Europe in whatever exotic car took my fancy, changing regularly. Attend plenty of motorsport, and compete in some. Travel the world almost continuously until I find that special place. Eventually settle down with a couple of modest homes in beautiful locations, near the sea, within sight of mountains, reasonably distant from large populations, in places where the temperature never drops too low, but doesn't go too high either. A couple of racetracks nearby would be a plus, with a couple of track focussed cars to compliment a small selection of the very best road cars. Invest in rising property markets to ensure the cash only grows.

As for friends and family. Well, in the last couple of years most of them have p!$$ed me off to some degree and displayed little interest in either me or my children, so apart from my Dad and brother, they can all rot, and I would expect nothing less back if they win.

So it wouldn't change your life then? ;) :D

Give £100m to selected charity projects and live out a long and fruitful life of travel, cars and family with the rest!

Hookers and cocaine.

First off I'd wait till its in the bank account. Then....

Pay off debts
Sort out finances so retirement and salary are sorted for life.
Buy a house with a nice large garage
Give parents 2 mill each with orders of I don't want to see it back on death, although it would probably lead to their divorce
Jack in job
Naff off on a nice 6 week holiday to 4 countries
Set about buying 1 or 2 dream cars
Spend a month in the rockies chasing elk with good friends (me paying)
Think about going back to press photography

Well it could be worse you could end up wasting it all :)

Obviously we're talking high class hookers and an even higher class of charlie :lol1:

Locate and photograph the mystic PSLewis for all of NSR to see.


also throw a few quid in to cure gayness and being a muslim.....

I'd make Charlie Sheen look like an amature!!!

Me I would sort my self out for later on, build myself a Gobstopper buy some kind of car trailer/ camper combined (probably need my HGV lol) then spend my summer traveling all of the Tracks in the UK and Europe doing trackdays and competitions.

I'd just be grateful I would NOT HAVE to work again - should I decide that. Not being forced to pander to any ****er fills me with a warmth like no other.

Anything else, i.e. material things, is a bonus.

HA!! I wish you the best of luck on that one, he's got a fair bit of experiance infront of him now :lol1:

...Plus I'd have a cunting great supercar and racecar collection, etc, etc.

Obviously. :rolleyes:

Buy SN and ban PSL :D

That amount of dosh would make go all eccentric and a bit weird. Yeah right, like I'm not like that anyway! :D

There's two others I would ban forever before him, infact I wouldent even Pete at all TBH. :)

I'd set up a bank account with enough money in it to earn enough interest to pay my existing mortgage, just to piss off Lloyds and Halifax :D

Pack the bags....










for her in doors!

And then go have some fun! :)

With 8000bhp and 23,000 litre fuel tank giving 1500 mile range (15 gallons to the mile at cruising speed not flat out, lol), the £10K interest per day will come in handy. That's £32K to fill up :thumb:

Anders

Beat me to it :norty:

I'd go to University and do a few masters degrees.

Wound no one take a dump on their bosses desk n say 'stuff ya job' or is that just me?

id help friends and family out first, then buy a nice big house with a big garden and a large garage area for me the mrs and kids, then fill the garage area with every childhood wet dream car I can think of.

Give it all to charidee mate

Well, I won a tenner .... maybe the yacht will have to wait until next week ...

Dave

I'd have to buy a Mclaren F1 (my directors dream car)..... drive it to work..... go up to him..... and in my best Harry Enfield voice, say....... ''i am considerably richer than you!!!!''

Leave the UK.

Buy Subaru and start making proper cars again.
