I'd spend some of it (€30k?) on renovating the part of our Greek house that, at the minute, we can't afford to do. The rest we'd just use to make life a bit easier/enjoyable.

I'd buy a really expensive watch...

You wouldn't get to own it though, you'd only be looking after it. Like taking the school guinea pig home for the holidays.

I'd put a chunk in my pension, another wad in a stocks & shares ISA, probably buy a vehicle with a towing capacity to match our new caravan we're getting in February, either a vw van or something like a discovery, pull my retirement forward a couple of years.

I don't really need anything so my 'spending' is a bit dull. Might buy some carbon wheels.

Buying a really expensive wris****ch would be ridiculously extravagant. So I'd buy 10,000 Casios.

That way I can have a new one every day of my life.

Pack my job in and get some blokes to do my loft conversion for me so i can ride my bike, climb and go to the gym. I'd also buy an Omega Flightmaster in mint condition.

I would reap my revenge on a few people...brings out small notepad.

Apart from obviously the mortgage/pension, I would probably look at taking a year off to visit those places I always wanted to visit but probably would never get a chance.

Spruce my bike - new rear shock and 1x11 drivetrain.

Go travelling somewhere, probably two holidays - one with my bike and one with my girlfriend. Nothing too extravagant.

Fix all the annoying things on my car - aux input not working, fuel filler cap not staying shut and treat it to a good service.

Buy a watch - Omega Aqua Terra or Rolex Datejust.

The rest would be invested for kids/ pension/ a rainy day.

I'd be tempted to at least shop for a new Enduro Steed. I'd be curious to see how much of an improvement modern geometry would be over my Patriot.. if at all.
