    With the amount of money you are talking you would be better to get professional finance and tax advice.

    The advice received on this forum can sometimes act as a good foundation that you can use to decide whether the professional you eventually talk to really knows their stuff. There are cowboys in every industry and you don't want to come across one when dealing with your new-found wealth.

    I know that, if I won the Euromillions, I'd come here before talking to a professional. The collective knowledge seen on this forum is much more extensive than any one IFA.

    I second that! I love this forum. It's amazing that people are so willing to share their knowledge and experience. I feel like I owe an IFA fee to quite a few of the regular contributors because I've learned so much from them!
