I suppose I'm greedy - I would like to win the biggy. One of my children lives in London, the other down in Sussex. The Sussex one rents a cottage, because the cheapest one-bed house/flat down there is about £200,000 minimum. So, I could give her £500,000 to buy a decent property. My son would need a large amount to buy into his partner's house, so he could have £500,000 as well. I would love to trade up from a flat to a house in London, so that would cost about £1 million. Trust fund for grandchildren's education, and enough money to set them up when they start out.

I would love to travel more - I have a list of places I want to see before I die, so I could spend on that, too.

Helping out friends would be a real pleasure, and providing for a comfortable old age - with a few luxuries thrown in.

Spent it already!
