What would you do if you were given £50k?

I’ve been daydreaming about winning the lottery and wondered what you would do with £50k? It obviously isn’t enough to retire on, so what would you do with it?

I think I would deposit a chunk into my S&S ISA, put some into my SIPP. Then, I’d top up my Emergency Fund and book some once in a lifetime trips.

I'd put a chunk in my SIPP, some in my emergency fund and some for a bit of frivolity.

I'd buy a couple of freddos and a bottle of olive oil. If there's any change I'd put it in savings.

I donkt need it. So I'd give it to DC to add to their savings for a house purchase.
