Left languishing in the bank? Bugger all. Properly invested in a varied portfolio there would be enough to have a nice existence on, but it won't be as much as people expect.

I would spend it all, I'm 31 now so if I spend at a rate of say a million a year that'll keep me ticking over nicely for the rest of my life. You can't take it with you.

At current rates, an assuming you didn't give any away, you would be lucky to get £75k , year in the bank before tax, so about £50k afterwards, not bad, but a lot less than many would think. Diversification is great but carries risk, sticking it in the Ftse would have seen you lose about 15% since the middle of last year!

I could squeeze £300k pre tax out of it in a range of fairly non-risky investments. Less effort to just spend it

Probably even more, but scary how little return you can get on big cash deposits these days, low interest rates are great for borrowers but shit for net savers! Anything other than cash carries risk, but being sensible you can do better than the 0.0015% currently offered!

London and France

Spend a quarter of it on fast cars

A quarter on expensive holidays, booze and food, and extravagant living

A quarter of it on women

And just waste the rest.

As someone pretty much entirely debt financed I don't think I'll start caring about the effect of low interest rates on net savers for a few years yet. (Except in a work context where yes, it's a right bugger trying to get a decent rate of return!)

For our poor old pensioners, they are actually getting a negative return when inflation is taken into account! Which I think would lead me to spending it and having a f&@king awesome time while I can

I thought about this earlier...id go on a spending spree and probably still have 49 million left over

I'd try to help people and set up a business to keep myself occupied doing something I enjoy.

That isn't trying hard enough, am sure you could spend more than that

I suppose being non-risky and using banks would mean opening 667 or more accounts with separate banks to stay within the £75000 deposit protection scheme too... a bit of a first world problem that. Like you say it's probably much less effort to just spend it.

no matter

I would find a nice house somewhere hot.. install a chef and a trainer to get me fit and lose 4 or 5 stone. would stay there till it was all lost . Then come back to Uk Find a couple or three nice houses for the kids Buy up a few houses that need work and get them done up to let. The kids can run the business between them so they have a good income.

Find me a nice house and get a live in housekeeper. So someone is always home to look after the birds.

Buy a place on a golf course for the ole man and send him off to enjoy himself.

I would travel a fair bit.

Put a million into the local hospice and other charities as I remember. I think sensible property investment is probably better than trying to find anywhere that gives good interest.

50 million is alot of money wow the possibilities are endless.
