You open up your mailbox and there is an envelope, address to you, that contains £5,000. What do you do/spend it on?

Derby also needs a new lifeboat station, the old one fell down due to poor upkeep and the 95 miles we are from the sea...

This happened to an ex colleague of mine. He was already rich and had won a significant amount the week before on the lottery. Some bastards have all the luck.

If it were me, I'd put it into my savings. Decide later what to do. I make very poor choices when I'm impulsive and I'm trying to stop that.

Pay to have my daughter assessed privately for ADHD and ODD. Then get her the help I've been fighting to get for her for the last five years.

If there was any left I'd put it towards fixing my car.

FYI, you can get a private assessment and report from some private practices for around £750. Some are more, some are less, and some accept Bupa. Maybe pay for insurance through them.

Either sorting out the car, getting C driving lessons and also a direct access course for motorbikes and then a few days away somewhere.

Or, more likely, put it in savings towards a deposit for our own place.

Yes, but probably not as lost property but unless I was expecting some money or it said who the money was from then I would suspect that there would be negative implications if I took the money and spent it.

"Spend spend spend such a materialistic lot you are"

Some people did say they would save it, put it towards retirement, and even give it to others.

Still others had very non-materialistic things they said they would spend it on.

So I guess I find this statement unwarranted.

Not to mention that it isn't unreasonable to spend money in the first place. It was a rather materialistic question.
