I doubt you'd have much choice about it changing your life. People would hate you for no good reason, you kids would be bullied from their school and your workmates would want you to leave and give someone who needs it a job.

And how long would a new aston martin or ferrari last parked outside your house ?

£50million put to one side for my own pleasures, spread £50m on other things like £1m to each of the (close) family and (close) friends so they can retire and live an easier life and then probably invest something like 10million in Oldham Athletic

Some Chav will win like that Carroll bloke no doubt.

Lottery advice is that you do not give away money to family and friends, so who am I to argue?

Anyway, only 2 more chances to win that much sadly, if it ain't won next friday, it's get split between the second prixe winners

If you gave 10 million each to all your family, would they be taxed 40% as unearned income ?

I suspect that they might be. Would be better to start a company and pay them an annual salary. That way, your capital stays intact and you can essentially use the interest (£250k per month? ) for their/your spends.

I'd buy a genuine subaru spoiler to replace my flat one.

Probably take the missus out with the change.

Just say those you want to give money to played with you as a syndicate - it's not a gift in that instance as you all put in for the ticket and can split it how you like.

These days it wouldnt be too hard to spend 100 million! Fair enough you'd have a load of assets but try doing a Brewsters millions and spend 100 million in 30 days with nothing to show for it!!!!!!

I'd buy many houses over the globe (next to the best race tracks), many Super cars and just live next to the Nurburgring

As work have treated my dept like sh1te, I'd give all my colleages 1million then watch the managers face as we all walk out (they are making us all redundant so what the hell).

Parents would get 1 mill each, I'd set up my own company not to mention having a house built with a garage / workshop larger than the house.

As for whats left, I'll work out how to spend it whilst I'm sitting on my boat in Monnaco harbour watching the GP, champagne glass in hand, bottle in the other.
