I'd buy the worlds most expensive single malts and bourbons then put out a youtube series where I find out whether they taste better with pepsi or coke. I'll follow that up with a restaurant series called Michelin Stars vs HP Sauce. Love this idea. Might I also suggest Waygu beef steak, well done, and a cheeky Vimto made with the world's most expensive port. |

Lots of people saying they would have a cinema room, but they're missing a trick. Why not have a theatre and hire Tom Cruise to throw himself off increasingly high balconies.

If I had 180M I wouldn't go anywhere near Tom Cruise or his bunch of weirdo mates

Come on, he's a cool guy and his mates run regular medieval re-enactments at their totally cool castle in East Grinstead

Mrs Hermit wants to hire a builder to follow the builder who lives next door and undercut them on all their jobs until they go bankrupt. I love this. When I strike it rich im going to buy a second house after my main one. This house will be to make various contractors who have pissed me off miserable, mostly electricians and painters, the messy cunts. Primarily I’ll be enjoying myself getting in other flooring contractors. I’ll have them do an install then go round sucking in my teeth pointing out where the butts are too close, H joints and the like. Then, when they’ve fixed those then I’ll have them sand and finish and stain it. Dark, to show up all the swirls and other sanding imperfections Then out comes the dreaded blue tape, which I anticipate using at least an entire roll of Only after they’ve been driven to near suicide fixing these problems will I let on that I’ve been a flooring contractor for the last decade It’ll be wonderful |

I need to reinvest my £4.60 winnings. That's like a ticket and 75%?

Pepsi or Coke is an horrific thing to do to a single malt. a true whisky connoisseur knows Panda Cola brings out the nuances the best. |

He had a bottle of whiskey that had been reclaimed from a sunken ship off the coast of Scotland and was about 80 years old or some nonsense like that, worth, he claimed, almost a grand. Imagine his horror when he gave me a shot and I put Cherryade in it. |

I blame the Queen. Obviously you would shop around a bit and not just pick the first listing on the first website you look at. |

In a lot of ways I prefer the idea of winning Set for Life than a massive lump sum on the lotto.
You get £10,000.00 a month for the next twenty years or something, which I reckon would be more satisfying somehow. It'd give you something to look forward to each month, you wouldn't go mental and buy stupidly expensive shit for the sake of it (well you would but not to the same extent). You could 'save up' for for stuff and get that sense of satisfaction for doing so. And you'd remain relatively grounded I think.

£10k a month buys quite a lot of hookers and coke.
So I'm informed.

Problem being it's not enough to escape the inevitable complete breakdown of society in the coming 20 years.
You want get your splurging in early and die before the starvation starts.

Pay myself a "wage" every month. In all honesty once I'd have gotten myself set up I'd have two accounts, once with the big cash and I'd just have a direct debit to my main account every month. it would take something exceptional to make me need more than 10k a month. |

The largest amount be the 188 million then.
To put how much that is compared to the 10k a month for the rest of your life, you'd need to be paid 10k a month for 1566 years.
I think humans find massive numbers hard to comprehend, and is partly why some averagely wealthy, and even poor, people defend the ultra rich when ever the idea of taxing them more comes up. They just don't realise how ridiculous the balance is.
(of course once I win I'll be chauffeured around poor areas in a gold plated bentley whilst I mock the plebs with a loudhailer.)

Lump sum gets you money that buys access to the tippy top
10k a month gives you less than the nanny

Lump sum would preferable but as someone who only has £350ish a month after rent and bills and still needs to buy food I'll take a regular monthly payment.
Got a free lucky dip for tomorrow meaning instead of buying one tonight and tomorrow I can buy two tonight.
Today's my day folks.

It's about contentment though. Unless you're giving away 90% of it, £180,000,000.00 is just an obscene and frankly immoral amount of money for anyone to have access to.
I can imagine it being far too much of a headfuck for a lot of people and them ending up doing a Conor McGregor and turning into the biggest cunts.
£10,000.00 a month is manageable. It's wealthy and comfortable without being disgustingly so.

I honestly would give away most of it. Already considered which charities, too. Some cancer, Alzheimer's, animal welfare and lgbt charities are all on the cards. Pretty sure this wishful thinking isn't all that healthy  |

We'd give most of it away, you'd have too, it's just too much not to do some good. After we've fantasised about all the things we could do to people we didn't like, taken out enough for us and extended family to not have to worry about money for the rest of our lives etc. we'd put the rest in some sort of charitable foundation. I mean how could you not?
