Congratulations!! You just won a million ...

What do you do first?

I'd take myself and DH off to ski for a week in Val d'Isère. Lots of après ski massages and hot tub time in our private chalet whilst we sip prosecco and plan the unexpected early retirement

Very first thing?

Sit DH down and warn him not to tell a soul on pain of death.

I'd buy the absolutely gorgeous 5 bedroom house around the corner from me. That's just under £200k gone. I would furnish it with not broken/ripped/second hand furniture. I'd buy a new car that we actually all fit in and doesn't sound like it's going to rattle itself apart.
Then I'd probably invest the rest for a rainy day.
I'd hope that with the money worries eased off a bit my anxiety would be less and I'd be able to be a bit more normal.

First, I wouldn't tell anyone other than DH.

Then:
120k to pay off the mortgage.
15k on home improvements (decorating, redoing the garden fence, changing the boys bedroom so my 5 year old isn't in a cot bed...).
A holiday at Disneyland Paris staying in a park hotel - we took the kids there last summer with an inheritance I had, staying in the cheapest place we could find. I'd love to splash out for them, they loved the whole thing.
4k to pay for DD and her friend on their international with Guiding next year.
Some for a friend who is struggling at the mo, but I'd want to do it anonymously.
Charitable donations to various charities that are important to me.
Fund a CGM to go with my insulin pump, donate to groups researching a closed loop CGM/pump system.
Invest the rest in shares, take the dividends as cash and use it to support monthly income.

Pay off mine and dc mortgages. Retire.

Buy a couple of houses, book the holiday we've been thinking about and then carry on as normal.

First thing... bargain booze... bubbles. Then smoke Cuban cigar my sister gave me a while back.

Ahtellthee I LOVE your reply. Beautifully selfless and heartfelt ❤️

Renovate the house completely. Put some aside for our three kids future. Go to Florida for a holiday. We’d both still need to carry on with work, but it would be good to have security for the kids.

Pay off the mortgage. Put the rest towards a villa in Mallorca. Poof, it’s gone.

VEry first thing I’d hand my notice in at work.

Pay off mortgage
Renovate / extend / redecorate house
Buy shoes

Buy a house and a newer car and fuck my family. They wouldn't be getting a penny.

Buy a new house (sell existing house), buy a new car and go on holiday.

Buy a house and take us all back to Orlando. Pay off car and credit cards and treat family to a mini holiday.

Pay what's owed against my late father's house and get it done up. Pay off my debts. Go on holiday with dog. Look into investment with the rest.

Pay off my mortgage, get someone in to do some work to our house, and replace our car for a new one (never had a brand new car). Pay for some extra support for one of my children with additional needs and then take the children on a plane. (They are despite to fly but just can't afford it right now). Also help my parents out.

Buy a house. Give our house to SIL.

Put 25k away for each of the 4 DC.

Go on a lovely holiday with friends.

Train as a social worker. Pay for DP to re-train too.

Have another baby so DS has a sibling close to his age.

I would pay to see a private paediatric doctor for both my children. I would then take them on a much needed holiday somewhere in the UK. I would also buy myself some much needed clothes.
Also buy a small house for us all.

New kitchen and an electric car. Other than that, I'm ok.
