To ask...

[Starrythoughts]

What would you do with £10k? Right now, if you won 10k, what would you do with it?

Id be on the next plane to Hawaii.
Or a Chanel handbag

£500 to cover Sixth form?! That's absolutely bonkers! What on earth have they requested the students have?

I'd put it into my LISA

Driving lessons.
A car.
Relevant insurance etc for a year.
The rest in the bank (my savings account not regular account).

Pay off the remainder of our wedding and honeymoon.

@YellowphantGrey well, she's doing history, politics and French. The books for history and politics have come to £160 so far (I didn't get my act together quickly enough to find them second hand). So there will be French to come.

Plus folders, paper, dividers for each subject. She'll use all of the pens, pencil case, laptop from last year.

New outfits - dress code is business dress. Skirts/trousers/dresses plus blazer. She doesn't possess any of these, so we've had to buy new. Mostly New Look, H&M etc but quickly adds up.

She's re-using old school bag, shoes from last year, etc.

And then there'll be the trips - going to be a costly 2 years but I console myself that she didn't do any trips Y7-9 because of covid, so I saved a fortune there.

Pay off a small loan. The monthly payments would free up loads of ££. Clear a couple of small credit cards. Have a holiday!

Dog had a very expensive essential procedure so I’d top up my savings that I had to use.

Pub and book a holiday

Buy a new car and use the remaining to pay off debts.

Get a new kitten. This is non-negotiable.

With the rest the dream answer would be to go to Canada for a month. The real answer is put it in my pension.

Buy a newer car

I'd like a breast reduction, but i also need the kitchen tarted up a bit.

Luckily I've only had to buy 3 books for English. The school provide the books for the other subjects.

Our uniform, I got the sweatshirts free, need to get trousers and shoes and bag.

Geography trip will be the killer £3500 for Iceland for 5 days.

Fix the house

Dental treatment. It won’t cover it, but it would help. I wish it weren’t necessary

Disney Florida. Without a doubt.
Then again, you'd need much more than that.

That would pay off my mortgage so definitely that!
