Just watched that euromillions advert where that bloke takes like 20-30 of his friends to a tropical island and has a game of paintball which includes jet ski's, quad bikes, helicopters etc... Awesome.
I would buy prostitutes , lots of prostitutes as now i have this much im never going to truly know if the girl is after my money so i might as well get it from a pro.
You know this universal law ? The Grass Is Greener somewhere else XD There is another truth, Europe is a cultural library, everywhere you look there is a story or something to learn. So maybe your grass is not greener but surely older than mine
LOL. Mate just hide it. You could have a secondary modest car and flat ect.. And never show them or tell them about ya millions until you are sure you want to marry. Then when you are sure make a prenuptial agreement with them so they can't divorce you and skank you for everything.
Put it in a bank safe along with my other 623 million pounds and 12 pence and then ride away on my magic unicorn while playing Duke Nukem Forever on an iphone with multitasking support.
You know that you can put your 113million in a bank an live with the interest ? At 9.66% it give you around 21 801 693.70 quid for a year lawl
Here in the States after being taxed 50% and getting back 56 million I would curse the Government more than two drunk sailors and give them the one finger salute but of course using both hands. I'd pay off all my debt, buy a Nissan GT-R and build a super gaming computer. get me a suite at the top of a cool casino in Vegas, party, travel, and play games. oh and don't forget the Ponzi scheme on the side to keep the money rolling in. Don't wanna go broke.
yeh go mad and shove it in the bank lol im sure we can be a bit more creative on a thread like this anyway how is 9.66% of 113 million 21.8 million? is it not 10.91 million
At WHAT? 9,88%? Anyway 4-5 million will suffice to live off the interest (depending on how it's taxed)
I know one thing, the day i found out i wouldn't remember, because a month later i'd be waking up in a place id never been surrounded by (mostly) people i don't know with copious amounts of stuff on my person Then id do the usual: build a house with all the trimmings, sound proofed, networked, hidden server room, camera'd up with hidden passages for my pleasure. Pay off all the (close) familys debts, buy them houses n so on build a few businesses profit then live like a rock star lol
I was considering this question the other day. More along the lines of how much it would take for me to quit my job and still live comfortably the rest of my life. It came up because a friend at work won 25K in a poker tournament and quit which seems stupid. Anyway, 113M would be more than enough to do it. Personally, it would involve getting myself and my immediate family(blood dad excluded, he's dug stupidly deep in debt and now me and my mom are getting calls from creditors even though they're divorced since '95 and neither of us have spoken to him in years) out of debt but really that's less than 200K. Get some issues with my teeth and back fixed that I can't afford currently. My wife's dream is to live in a large city so probably try to find a reasonably priced home near NYC or Chicago. Other than that, dunno. Computers and cars are expensive hobbies but manage-able on that budget. I really like my current car but could see myself putting 50-100k into it and getting something else to be a daily driver.
Typical red top paper, yes it'll buy all that but the up keep of half that is a serious consideration, imagine filling up that boat with diesel!
An island for £8.6 million? I mean, that's a lot of money, but not really what I'd consider expensive for an island. Each of my friends would get something like £50000 and then I'd have property and stuff for my family. I know a girl who's struggling to find investment capital for her business too, so I'd become a venture capitalist. And the other £100 million would go in the bank.
Depending on how old you are, what you currently own and what quality of life you enjoy even just 1 million (after taxes) could keep you out of work for life. Myself, rounding my age to 20 to make things easier, I'd need ~300k for a decent house in my current area so right off the top I won't be having a full million to last my lifetime. I'm just going to plan this out having the same lifestyle all the way to 80 where I die with no unexpected medical bills. So I have a permanent residence (assume I either always live there, or buy a new one using only money from the sale) and $700k. Then start looking at the cost of a single car for life assuming a 25k car every ten years, so 6*25k=150k. $550k left to spread out over my life. I'll spoil myself and allocate 1.5k every year to a brand new gaming PC (though in reality this is more like a 'hobby fund') for 90k over a lifetime. Drops me down to $460k. Let's put $300 a month in for food, $216k for a lifetime supply. $244k left in my pool. $50 a month internet, $50 a month phone bill, $200 for sewer/water/power/garbage/etc. would come out to be about the same as my food at $216k to be taken care of for life. Leaves me with $28k. Here it starts getting hard to predict. I've run a bit high on some things to purposefully cover random charges (like car insurance). Essentially, I have $467 a year (after my hobby fund) to spend as I please. That sounds a bit thin, but remember that I'll always have a nice car, good food, and plenty of utilities and services. It's not an extravagent life, but I'd never have to work! Of course, that's assuming I stay single forever with no pets. If I had a wife who didn't want to work then food costs double, utilities go up, a second car is likely needed, etc. and if I had kids then the costs just sky rocked, particularly when college comes around. For someone with a house mostly paid for already it gets a lot easier. But look at your average family. Consider how much money they'll make in their entire lives. It rarely breaks two million. It really makes a person appreciate what $113 million means. Also makes a person appreciate just how greedy a person is when they have several hundred million dollars which they could never possibly spend and just hoarde, but that's another story.
I'd quit my job, and travel the world with my DH mountain bike. Whilst not riding I would give money to people looking for funding for projects that wouldn't usually get funding from someone looking for a profit. Things like mountain bike films, events & competitions etc.
