This would be mine too. Although I would like a nice campervan but not when the cost the same as a house!

KK can we only pick one thing?

I'd re-landscape the front and back gardens and buy all the surrounding fields, create a woodland, natural habits and lots of interesting places for the locals to ride their horses (dogs and walkers welcomed).

On the other hand maybe I would just buy an island somewhere and escape the craziness of the world.

Regarding your business Watty, I had to suddenly stop running mine. I'd planned to stop anyway, but had an accident which brought the end date forward. Previously I'd had some conversations with different people who would be possible purchasers, but they went nowhere. When I announced to my customers and suppliers that I was stopping, several people approached me about buying the business. I sold the assets and intelectual property, whilst keeping the limited company which had a lot of cash on the books, which I extracted over several following years. The handover took about 6 weeks. The person who bought it is still running it several years later.

Obviously I've no knowledge of your business, but is there any likelihood of this happening for you? Your courses where you have done all the prep for the presentations, could someone else pick that up and run with it? I didn't expect to sell to the person who bought it. Apparently they had always been interested in it, but never thought I'd be selling it so never mentioned it to me.
