Debt first, start with the hight interest. Then invest but also fun. Treat your self or family.

But how much makes a difference.

Villa with a pool in Majorca, pay off my mortgage, decorate the house and give the children enough to get them a good deposit for a house. Any spare will go to the animal charities which I support.

It depends how much, your current circumstances and your age. It would be pointless someone of my age investing very long term for instance.

Otherwise firstly take out private health insurance, then invest in ways advised by a decent financial expert. If you want to make charitable donations and help family and friends also do that

I probably wouldn't get involved in anything that I wouldn't see a good return on around five years unless I had very large sums to invest.

If it was a lot, like say over 50 grand..I'd go onto the triodos bank website and invest a portion in shares in one of ethical start-up projects they have on their page.

They are a bank that fund ethical businesses. (Like a school for blind kids, renewable energy companies etc.)

I'd spend a few days researching the various projects...& how much I'm willing to invest etc.

We do but they'll invest as they see fit when the time comes. Not that there will be much to invest with

I came in to quite a lot of money last year and I blew it all on travel and things for my sons and helped out a friend. I don't regret a thing.

Money will always return but memories are priceless.

I am boring with my money - pay the debt off, put a large chunk of it in market tracking ETFs (learn to love the power of compounding) and then keep a residual amount of cash for living life so that I don’t have to keep selling the invested stuff.

Here’s my plan for the £100m

Get a PA to organise your life

Concentrate on experiences rather than things

Find a way to mean you can still do the types of amazing things you want to with friends and family without spoiling or patronising them

Snowboarding in Japan with mate?

Rolling Stones in Rio?

Ashes in Australia later this year?

Glastonbury tickets?

First 5 to text back and the PA sorts it out

Anything you can’t spend on having a better time with mates and family gets given to charity
