I doubt you'd be able to safeguard every single penny, but let's say you put half into shares, commodities, property and a swimmingpool's worth of champagne etc. You'd then have, say, £80m in cash. There must be a few hundred banks around globally so you'll *only* be risking a few hundred thousand in a single bank I reckon.
You'll just have to buy one less yacht that year"Chuck Norris can remain solvent for longer than the markets can remain irrational"0 -
£156 million hmmmm.
£20mil - "Splash out investing", by buying biggish stakes in companies I love
£30mil - give away to friends and family
£30mil - charity
£1mil - cars
£1mil - house
£Xmil - a night with Rosie Jones and Lucy Pinder (no idea how much they'd charge)
The Rest - invest over different investments to provide income0 -
Some folks with their winnings would open Reward accounts with the Halifax to switch £1000 each month so they can get an extra £5...........0

EDIT: That's rather easy on the eye.0 -

£1m on cars I could do in one go - Bugatti Veyron.
Property -several million easily. I'd like a penthouse overlooking the Thames with outlook on St. Pauls and up towards House of Commons, then I would like one down in Cornwall with sea views and another with outlook over the lake district.
If only!0 -

Yeh I wouldn't want the "multi millionaire lifestyle" such as fast cars and big houses, just the women part.0 -
Id hope Halifax would upgrade me from having a crappy Visa Electron lol..
I dont think I'd go for Rosie Jones personally....Peta Todd would be one, pretty sure you could get Paris Hilton (if you wanted to) just by offering her a bag or something...for her dog...or her head...Debt in June 2011: Debt amount £1248
Credit score: 406:mad:
Debt in Jan:Debt amount £0
Credit score: 715:T
Got my first credit card in December 20110
