I would just retire... at 22... and live with my girlfriend in a very reasonably priced home and be very careful spending so that I never have to work ever.

Oh and play lots of video games, WOO!

I would buy a house in the west end of Glasgow or Edinburgh, then build a bowling alley in the house. Simply because its something i have always wanted :) I would then put the rest of the money in the bank and i could probably live off the interest.

I would probably share some of it with my close family, Mother,Sister,Nephew. I wouldnt go handing it out to Aunts and Uncles i rarely see.

I'd change it into real money (haha i'm so funny), I'd then get a barrister (yeah a fucking Barrister, its like a lawyer but with a fancy wig) to make sure I didn't get screwed over by the taxperson (I refuse to say taxman because I find it sexist) I'd then buy a condo in LA and convert all my money into dollars (oh wait.. I didn't think this through did I?)

I don't know why I'm doing the yes no business but everyone else is so i'm jumping on the bandwagon.

Pay off my house, dump my credit card, buy the wifey something nice (not because I'm a nice person, but because I dislike angry wife), then concentrate on what I'd want to accomplish for the rest of my life. I'd quit my job obviously, because who needs that kind of extra stress when you're rich, especially with as lazy as I am?

As for friends and family, psht. I might pick up a bar tab or two, but you guys are paying your own bills. I've got a wife to indulge! >.>

Embodiment of Scarlet Devil and other games by ZUN.
I'm in school, but will definately work when I get out.
Sortof, depends if it's for an interesting cause. (Like turning my friend's basement into a rave center)

A second PS3!

I'd probably get a decent apartment in a prime location, help my family and friends out with some of their money issues and invest the rest or put it in a money market account.

I'd not quit my job, because I'd not be able to live my entire life off that.
I'd still go to work, but on the first day I'd acquire that money, I'd buy a new house, a new car, lots of technology (new computer, all consoles), buy a shitlot of beautiful furniture, a lot of games.

Then, if there'd be any more money, I'd save it for future consoles and games. And food.

Also, I'd buy a lot of clothes. I'm in dire need of more clothes than I currently have (well, mostly shoes, I have plenty of other clothes).

Pay off my student loans. Put sixty million in the bank to collect interest and then I would travel the world.

Probably a good car and electronic/gaming things.
Depends on the job. I'd love to work at Google or a technical job that treats employees well, but not as a boring 9-5 office drone.
Of course. There's only so much I could get out of the money, which I'd probably get by about $10 or $20 million. Of course I'm going to use it for people who'd get more out of it.

Create an english version of Mother 3 that actually works on a GBA.

Maybe afterwards I'll have enough for a bag of Tutti Fruttis. Which are shit.

Haha, the amount of times I've thought about this!

I'd put it all in a bank and live off the interest.. Have fun with the money, buy a nice car, buy a nice house-boat and the other obvious stuff. Instead of working I'd probably take up Judo or Boxing, something to do so I don't get lazy and fat. In fact I'd do a load of voluntary work just because.

1: I'd buy a nice place in Brisbane so I can move out of this damned country.
2: A bit I guess.
3: Some voluntary work I guess, like for an SPCA shelter or something.

I'd want to win the $100mill around £80million pounds in the UK, you as a rule dont pay tax on winnings in the UK
You do pay tax on interest though.
On £80million you'd earn about 0.1% interest, which is about £80,000 a week.
Thats in a current account though, if it was placed in like a savings account you'd earn something like (stupid economy) 3.5% interest so like a lot more.

I would buy a lot of things to make my life better and easier.
A house not to big though.
I wouldnt want to waste it all living a massively rich life.

I would buy things that have brought me happiness before, i've been happy up to now why would i need anything more.
