You win or inherit £1.5m, what do you do?

[cornish mackem]

Probably not £60 a pint where you live mate

If I had to pay £60 for a pint anywhere I’d either stop drinking of you would find me on the home brew thread

100k each to my sisters, spend 300k, 1m in the pension fund. Retire at 55.

Stay out of that London then mate

 

[NorthCountryBoy]

Go down to 3/4 days a week, keep the same lifestyle then retire somewhere between 45 and 50.

 

[Roaring Chubby]

I’d retire young, 50-55. The problem with retiring very young is that all your mates are at work all day, you only have solo hobbies to occupy your time. You could travel loads but that would start to get very expensive and tiresome. If you hate your job I can understand the attraction of sacking it off very young.

The tax man would take a huge chunk of any "gift".

Only if you pop your clogs within 7 years.

I mate so it seems. I was never aware of that mind. I was always led to believe the taxman took his wedge.

The wedge gifted would be added back to the estate of the person who gifted it , for inheritance tax calculations.

You are a cracking lad Joe don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

 

[Dauntless Dive Bomber]

Some right f***ing whoppers on here mind saying they would still have to work and could only retire on that if they were getting on. If a 25 year old won that amount they could buy a house for 300k and still have 30k a year to live off till retirement and that's before interest.

 

[tunstall birdman]

Buy new blobs to replace my out of date ones.
