How would you spend your day tomorrow if you had unlimited funds?

[lovespaniels]

Not an AIBU but figured more traffic

I would...
Buy a gorgeous house on the spot for my partner and I (And our pup).
Furnish it with the most luxurious and comfortable things.
Book in on an emergency spa day (massage, facial, brows, nails- the works!)
Buy my dream car & one for my partner.
Book a holiday for this summer in the Maldives THEN an American road trip.
Finish it off in a gorgeous restaurant for a date night.

Sounds like I'd be busy tomorrow...

But seriously, my boyfriend and I are currently flat/house hunting for a larger place and all the ones in our budget are shitholes or don't allow dogs.
It's nice to fantasise about being able to afford the perfect home.

Dentist at 09.15 followed by work: wouldn't deviate from the plan

I'd spend the day investing money so I could live off it forever and then take my time buying my dream house cattery instead.

I would buy a large-ish house in the middle of nowhere with lots of land around it, I'd buy my family (DPs, DSis and MIL) beautiful houses close by. Or send MIL to live in Oz it she's prefer (DSIL is there). I'd love to be able to make sure they didn't HAVE to work (though they still would).
I'd buy our dream cars and book a holiday to the Maldives.
I'd put a large sum in my best friends account.
I'd build my DH a workshop.
I'd invest for the kids futures.
I'd build myself a library.
I'd do a lot of charity work in the community.

Tell my D she doesn't need to go back to work after mat leave.
Book a luxury boat trip for forth coming holiday.
Buy some well needed specialist toys for work.
Tell my H so he doesn't have to stress about work anymore.
Book to have my garden made over.

Oooh, good thread. I would do some development work in my house, and go on holiday with my dog (believe me, hes nicer than my Ex ever was). If I had enough money I would consider quitting work and running an animal sanctuary

Tell work to shove it. Then tell the OH to get his coat, get a taxi, flight back home and go shopping for a house. In a taxi.

I'd struggle. We live very frugally from our childhood and early adulthood - we've never spent/wasted money as neither of our parents had money, so being careful is in our DNA. We even talk a flask of coffee with us in the car if we're going out for the day rather than buying drinks at the destination. We saved for our house deposit and saved to pay off the mortgage. We have two fairly old cars, and even when we come to buy a new one, it'll be a low/mid range relatively cheap runaround. No aspirations to move house. We'd probably buy a small holiday apartment in maybe Cyprus or Florida, but even then, we'd be renting it out when we're not holidaying in it ourselves, so it would probably pay its' way. We are fairly comfortably off, but we just don't spend much at all. No close family other than our DS, so it'll all be left to him anyway.

In no particular order:-

pop to the car showroom and buy me and DH a new car each (porsche and a range rover)

Ring the local private grammar school to try and get DSS in.

Write cheques for each of my family to sort their finances out.

Get looking on Rightmove.

Book an amazing skiing holiday for this half-term.
If only......

Badbadbunny

I am the same.

I don't do "stuff". Expensive bags and shoes don't do it for me.
I drive a 12 year old ( reliable and well serviced- friend is a mechanic) car that cost tme £800 4 years ago.
I could easiky afford a brand new car- I see that as a waste of money.
My house is big enough, we are comfortable.
We earn more than we need.

I would like to have time to travel, but that's about it.

I like my life.

I’d buy a 3 bedroom house with a huge garden for the kids to play in and fully stock the kitchen with food

And maybe treat myself to a super computer and VR headset

I’d close my lovely business of 14 years that is currently been torn to shreds by the shitty ravages of Brexit.

Then I’d sleep properly hopefully without dreaming my teeth are falling out and waking in the night full of anxiety.

I would give up my job (tell my Mum she has to give up work too) and spend the day looking for dogs. I would love dogs, but working full time just can't commit.

The day after I'd start looking at houses and sorting out my friends & family.

Pay off my debts
Put some money to one side for a house
Open and fill savings account for the DCs
Set some money aside for the future
Pay off my parents mortgage
Give my siblings enough money to buy a house

Donate the rest to food banks and domestic violence charities

Ooh I like this thread!

I would quit my job on the spot and spend my day with DP doing everything and anything we want. I would transfer a couple million to each of my sisters and parents, buy a big house I've been looking at on RightMove and go on a big shopping spree to get furniture for the house. We would then go buy our dream cars, and book to luxury holidays with first class flights. We would then have a romantic dinner and talk about all the amazing thins we will do in our life. And of course transfer millions in to my account and DP's account, assuming I would have to use all the money tomorrow

1. book caribbean holiday (i have specific tiny island in mind but not sharing the name because I don't want people on here to know about it!)

2. hire someone to clean/sort/look after house whilst we are away

3. spend 2 weeks on holiday deciding calmly what to spend money on for the first year of new found wealth - which charities most need help, which family members deserve help, which countries to visit

4. whilst on extended holiday, decide how remaining money needs invested to continue happy charitable non working lifestyle forevermore.....

5. new boobs and possibly liposuction (as I'll clearly be spending much more time in a bikini in the caribbean)

I'd fill my Bank Accounts/ISA and those of my children, Sister (reluctantly) and give amounts to people that I know.

There's a few charities that I know I'd definitely give to, so just go ahead with that.

I'd buy holiday homes around the Country, including Scotland.

I'd have the money set aside for a new house for me and my children would as well.

I'd look for investments, so check out property auctions. I'd buy a camper van and a VW classic van for my DD.

Book in for dental implants. Tear trough fillers, lip plumping, fillers.

There's a few local causes, like schools wanting money for gardening projects, local community centres needing laptops, a sensory room for older children and Adults etc. I'd transfer funds whilst stopping for lunch.

I'd 'adopt' lots of children in the third world and old people, the charities for them are always on my FB. I'd give ten years up front. As well as the appeals for warm clothing for displaced people and in the Yemen etc.

It would be totally selfish, it's as much for the feel good factor, being charitable, whilst I'm having a rest.

I'm not the size I want to be so clothes shopping doesn't appeal. I'd rather go tech shopping.

I'd book two family holidays, out of term time, to go with my Grandchildren. One to pirate island and somewhere else that would suit all of us. Then I'd book Canada for December and Japan next year.

I'd probably get a takeaway with my youngest DD and really good wine. Do some online shopping for beauty gadgets and skincare, whilst mixing in going onto the charity that asks you to invest in a business in undeveloped countries and just checking them off, again purely selfish, it stops the guilt.

I would:
Buy a nice house big enough for my own library and a load of dogs.
Send my best friend and her family to Disneyland Florida (she's poor and would love to take her kids there but can't afford it)
Retrain in a career I always wanted.

Personally I would ask the very same question on mumsnet and then help people accordingly. I love this website. It's a massive reminder we are all human and there are millions in the same position or sadly worse off. So many people on here make me laugh too though. Very much needed at the mo.
I'd help those who I felt needed it most. I've been desperate and it's awful.
After that, I'd buy myself a sad lonely house and turn it into a warm light bright family nest. I'd also give each of my five children a lump sum for their start in adult life.
Id also buy some gorgeous undies and have freshly washed bed linen every single night on my bed. Pooh, if only.......

If only....I'd obviously leave out the pooh!!!!

Pay off debts. Buy biggish house with fields around it. Buy two dogs, a donkey and some chickens. Pay off student debt of my DC and my brother’s DC too. Give them all a really good lump sum to put down on houses of their own. Buy a holiday house in southern France. Buy DH a fabulous piano. Boob job (not for size, just some anti sag sort of job), and gastric band.

I’d hire George clark and his “ugly house to lovely house” architects to make our house lovely without needing to move. And I’d put us up in a luxury serviced apartment during the works.

I'd set up a grant making charity and give to organisations/projects I cared about. Would also help set up other charities/projects for my friends dreams and fund workers cooperatives.

And I'd buy loads of faerysteps shoes and mad pixie clothes and live in an amazing multi level tree house. And would eat out, constantly, loads of lovely Thai and Japanese food 😁

I think I'd log onto the bank and stare at my bank balance for ages, then:
Start looking for a new house, nothing massive but definitely bigger. I still want to walk to town.
Send some money to my children, more to follow but enough for them to have some fun
Plan a visit to see my wonderful granddaughter
Stare at my bank balance again.

buy a house
Buy a car
Go part time
Sort out friends and family that need sorting re housing and debt
Go to a spa
Book a load of holidays
Chill the fuck out
The end

Buy a generously sized but manageable apartment and furnish it. Fill cupboards with delicious food and fine wines.
Take myself and DP shopping for some new togs and hairdo.
Book a catsitter who can give medication for our very senior kitty.
Then book a luxurious holiday for ourselves. First class all the way. Suites. Perhaps a Baltic Cruise with a trip to St Petersburg, or a northern cruise taking in Rekjavik and the Faroes.
