Little unlikely for me since I've never bought a ticket in my entire life, but if I won 10 mill, I'd...

Buy a large house (there's one literally around the corner from mine which would be perfect) and have all my posse move in. I'd charge them a tiny bit of rent (cheaper than anywhere else they could go) just for their food and to help pay the bills (hey, I ain't running a charity here)

I'd have the house rigged to solar panels and stuff (I'm very concerned about the environment) and use solar to charge an electric car I'd buy

Then I'd take us all to America for two weeks

Oh, and buy a few top of the range PCs for me and my posse to play each other on, as well as a PS2, Cube, X-Box etc

Then after that initial splash, I'd stick the majority of the rest in the bank (keep some cash incase of a crash in the market or summat)

I'd sort out my family for life, and live a full and rich life, living off the interest and investing my money carefully

How about you lot?

O.K. you've just won £10.000000, and what do you do with it, the obvious answer is spend it on;
a big house
flashy cars
a big yhat ( i'm crap at spelling, soz)
a home in the carribian
well?

You may think of doing all of this but if your in this situation, your on a high, i mean you've won the lottery for gods sake, then reality hits you, no one likes you because your the big rich person who looks down on them, your kids wont have any friends, and then your stumped, being a rich c**t aint all that good, and belive you me i should know.

My uncles brothers a multi millionaire.

On second thoughts, I would buy Special Reserve, then I would make myself the Ultimate Notable, even though my topics are crap!. And I'll invent the much acclaimed Game Dodecahedron...

Yeah I used to like it at first, but now I drink an unhealthy amount of coffee to get me through the day - used to hate the stuff before I started working there

20, going on 21. I started as an office junior and have been promoted to the accounts team, although I primarily do VAT Returns, CIS Vouchers and the occasional spot of payroll. I have to option to study for the certified accountant's qualification in September.
Contrary to what you may think of accounts staff, unless you are in management or a qualified accountant, the pay is rubbish. I could get more working in a call centre, although if I go ahead in November, then a few years down the line I could be raking in the dough.

Buy an Aston Martin V8 Vantage V600, F355, Diablo, R32 GTR Skyline, R34 GTR Nur Skyline.
A Big House with a great deal of garages
Turn a room/block into a home cinema
Invest at least 2 million into one or more "with profits" bonds with a monthly drawing of about 6.5%, which should equate to around about 10 grand a month net.
Not that I spend a lot of time thinking about this. *ahem*
And quit my job too. Accountancy may be sensible BUT IT SURE ISN'T FUN KIDDIES
