To be honest I don't think £1M would last me a long time, not if you want the 'perfect' life. It's fine if you'd want to continue living your life as it were with little improvements, but if you wanted to splash the cash all the time it wouldn't last you long. £400K - £500K on a house, some cars, TV's, doing the place up, some holidays, cash for friends/family...I'd use all the £1M before the end of ten years.

I'd not know what to do either - but it's just...there. With that amount of money you wouldn't have to think about what you're buying at all. With £1M you would.
Yeah true, you'd have to be very disciplined to live off £1,000,000 for your whole life when you have it there to spend. Even saying you only spent £20,000 it'd only really last you 50 years and you wouldnt want to live like that anyway probably, not if you were a millionaire.

If I had £112m though, I dont think I could possibly spend all that in a lifetime, I'd have to be extremely reckless. Dont get me wrong, it'd be great never to have to worry about money again but I think you coudl live like that with £52m as well.
