What would you like to do/buy if you were to win the roll over (believed to be around £125 million  )
Im curious to see peoples actions such as donating money to charity, will you continue to work, live a millionaires lifestyle 
Personally I would donate a large percentage (unsure of how much), help build houses, lay water pipes to third world countries. I would continue to live an as normal life wherever possible!!
Your oppinons

Hard to say, i wouldnt just sit on my arse with 125 million, id have to keep busy so id probaby start up my own business, buy loads of property to rent out and put money away. Let the money build up as quick and as fast as possible, then buy a football club

Buy a huge country house, a big house close to town and some amazing cars. I'd also be onto Lucy Pinder getting her to sleep with me
Give some money to family and make sure best mates could quit their jobs and we'd go on excellent holidays and hang out. Wouldnt have to work to keep busy as i'd always be doing stuff rather than work.
Deffo invest a large amount somewhere though to earn me loads back.

Id consider doing what matt said and building a circuit, then you could track all of your cars at any time and rent out the circuit and make money out of it.

I would set up my family members for life, closest friends, have a villa in Spain, a luxury pad in the UK, one in the USA, one in Brazil. Have a barage of cars, buy land and do a building site to give me something to do. I would give money to cancer charities and stuff like M.S and Spina Bifida etc.... but alcoholics and drug users charities can bollocks.

Hmm £125 million, christ thats a lot of cash
I've thought about this a few times but dont we all...
I would give about £10million to both my mum and dad, and give the rest of my family enough to live off without working (not a huge family  )
Then i would buy an Aston Martin db9 for a runabout and maybe a Bugatti Veyron as the weekend beast
I would quit uni for a few years and enjoy goin on holidays with my mates back home and family.
I think i'd be tempted to build a track and strip and hire it out, use it whenever i wish aswell as getting an income
Go back to uni and re-start my degree in transport design cos thats what i would love to do, become a professional car designer
dreams eh!

I'd buy Luton Town FC but I wouldnt want anything to do with the daily running of the club. I'd build them a stadium with one stand named after myself and front some cash for transfers.
Would sort out all my mates, make sure they are all debt free, buy each one of them a very decent car.
Would take care of all my family and make sure they all live easily from now on.
Oh and i'd live my life to the full! Year long round the world party with all my mates.
Then i'd buy houses all over the world and take up Golf as a hobby.

Yeah give alot away to family and friends..
Spunk some into Aberdeen Football club.
Buy the usual houses and lots of cars..Then try and live happily for the rest of my days...
OH would rent Louise nurding for a few nights with me she is worth a million for a weekend
As said when you give it away and they bank it the tax man will take 40%, so need offshore accounts etc or keep it under the mattress
