What would you do with 50k if you got it handed to you on a plate?

Ah but the average Joe Soap doesn't have the connections they do! :rolleyes:

Firstly, I'd question the relevance of the plate.

CardBordWindow

Before I answer this, do I get to keep the plate also?

Buy a very big milkshake. Then put it in a bank and wait for the interest. Mmm the taste of not poverty.

Sindri

I'd ask,' Why aren't my cornflakes in a bowl. How the **** am I supposed to pour milk on them'?

Secondly I'd ask,' Why only 50 cornflakes, that'd hardly feed a Somalian'.

I am afraid I would do the boring thing and lash it off my mortgage...:cool:

Amazing the difference 50k would make to me long-term.

Eat it

you wont make much interest in a bank these days.

i'd buy a cheap house for €50000 then do it up to live in it.

Well it's still better than hiding it under the mattress. Hopefully.

I'd ehhh... probably just take it tbh.

token101

Take a career break for a year or more, and travel everywhere I've always wanted to go. Everywhere possible in 12-18 months. I'd fly to NYC and go through all the big cities on the way to Chicago, then do Route 66 across the States taking me 2-3 months. From California, go to Tijuana and trek through Mexico down through Central America, into Colombia and and see as much of SA as possible in 6 months. Then I'd fly from there to Spain and interrail all through Europe for 3-4 months, and go in through Eastern Europe into Russia, where I'd do the Trans Siberian Express through to China. Once I'd spent 2-3 months doing that I'd head for SE Asia and spend another 3-4 months there. And then on to Oz/Canada to go back to work!

Id buy an electric car in UK and bring it over (cheaper), then Id buy a windmill for powering the house, and the batteries for the car

Richard Hillman

Give somebody planning permission.

sunflower27

Oh to dream....

OK, €16K on a college course I want to do. That would be the first thing.

Then I'd book a holdiay for myself and my friends that have had to put up with me being miserable for the last year

The rest I would keep for motgage payments etc

homerjay2005

holiday to barbados for about 3k, a car for 15-17k, throw a party for about 5k in my house and use the other 25 odd grand for a down payment on a new house.

Luap

Eat it.

Hookers and Blow , last me around a week i'd say

Does that mean lots of low class hooores or a couple of the best?

Chuck Stone

I would buy a big field and fill it full of donkeys because I like donkeys.

Ellis Dee

I'd ask for a plastic bag or something to put it in, as stuffing it into my pockets would ruin the line of my suit.:):):):)

Thepoet85

I'd have a giant party wih Blackjack and hookers.. Actually feck the 50k!

People like you disgust me.

tdv123

Well in a perfect world I'd make a plan. Like this bit on a nice car, this on a nice cruise, this on a nice african child to make me look good, this on cigars etc...

But in reality I'd probably just spend it all on drugs. About 30% up nose & 70% into a few veins.

Then I'd probably end up smoking cracking, because I blew all my money speed balling & have to become a male prostitute to feed my habit.

No, 50K for me please. I'd rather my dignity.

Froggyman

Leave my **** civil service job and fund my way through a cabinet making apprenticeship!and buy loads of power tools!

DEFTLEFTHAND

Kinda of a standard answer but I'd probably organise a couple of months off and go travelling. There's lots of places I want to visit soon.

Yakuza

To paraphrase George Best, you'd spend 49k on that, and waste the rest?

Pdfile

i'd buy all the fiat 126p's money could buy then invite all my friends to have a rally around some ghost estates !

Turtwig

Pay off my rather significant debt.
Spend it on a college course I'd like to do.
Any surplus left over couldn't really give a ****.

meoklmrk91

I would buy a nice car, nothing crazy, probably a Fiat 500..... Abarth
The rest would be put away for college, I want to be a vet and that **** don't come cheap.

50 grand would just about finish off my morgage less 4-5 grand

ooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *

*whers the dreaming/fap fap smiley *

pragmatic1

I'd go on holiday to tropical island for a month.

im invisible

I'd probably invest it, in drugs
that much could probably set you up nicely, double your money every few months, if you keep investing it, or keep things kinda low-key, and have a nice income off it. Just weed and e, i dont think id even touch the coke, never mind the rest...

RobbingBandit

Lotto scratchers, Bet I would win at least €10,000.

kelle

It was IRL£50,000, so worth about €62000!

dark crystal

I would emigrate.

charlietheminxx

Boring answer - I would save €35,000 of it towards a house some day, I would spend about €5,000 upgrading my car and spend the other €10,000 on holidays and shopping.

saa

Do a masters.
Get a personal trainer.
Travel.
put away 19k so that I can still get the dole before and after the masters :pac:

foxyboxer

Throw it on the pile I suppose.
