Move house?
Pay off your Friends/families Mortgages?
Treat work mates?
Give up work?
Travel the world?
Start your own Business?
Move abroad?
Leave your Oh? 
I would love to open a chain of Traditional Sweet shops as although I would no longer have to worry about the bills etc I would need something to have something to focus on and get My teeth into 
What about you?

Have thought about this so much I can answer right away. I have some friends with major money worries so i would put money in an envelope and in middle of night put it through their letter boxes. It would change their lives but they would never know who it was from. The feeling I would get from that would be worth a million dollars. For me I would just treat myself a little bit more - not good at spending money so not sure how it would change me. My OH says I would still be hunting for bargains no matter how rich I was.

Now I'm talking euro millions here..... I would
Pay off all my friends mortgages Buy a chalet in the mountains (France) Give my immediate family 1 Million per family Move to a georgian style large house Set up a charity to help families with money for smallish things that are too expensive for them to pay out but are life changing Buy a house onSouthwold Have a small buisiness just because I can... Actually the list is endless and I would run out of money.

I would - Pay off my sisters and brother in laws mortgages Buy a larger house Put money into a pension scheme ( but then again if you had all that money you wouldn't need a pension scheme !!) Give some money to my daughters old school - which desperately needs new classrooms Pay off university loans Give money to a couple of charities I support Set up a couple of trust funds so that daughters could get onto the property ladder
I would try not to tell a soul - though if you started doing all the above people would soon cotton on !!

Firstly I would tell no-one except Mr F.
Secondly, Mr F would give up his job and all the travelling he hates
Then..... I would be a Fairy Godmother like aec13cat. I love the idea of posting envelopes through letter boxes in the dead of night.
I would pay off my sister's mortgage and sort my family out financially.
I would also like do things like buy a brand new washing machine for a hard up family. Small things which make a big difference.
For myself, I would love to have my house redecorated and Mr F would probably chose a new car. We would go on holiday.
I think the best thing would be knowing that you would never, ever have to worry about money and bills again.........

Pay off all the petshop bills and rent the unit next to us (which is empty and waiting for us) and have a pet paradise with lots of lovely animal stuff, give Crumlin childrens hospital a BIG donation and then lots of the above that others have posted. Oh and a very nice car BMW 7 series or a porsche with cream leather seats No kids allowed. just because I can.
mortgages for anyone I know obviously a thing of the past.

..keep it quiet! The idea of having so much money frightens the life out of me. I've always had to watch the pennies and I couldn't imagine spending for the sake of it. Hubby always sez he would buy houses for the kids but I think then they would be wanting fast cars and motorbikes !! My nerves would be in tatters

Keep it as quiet as possible !
Give up work and start to come to terms with having lots of lolly. Help friends and family as they needed. Buy a house surrounded by fields and a small cottage by the sea. Give up work and spend my spare time running a trust to help under privileged people get back on their feet, start businesses etc. Do some travelling around the world.

My Oh and I would give up work. He would start a gardening business and I would do Family History full time as a job.
We would give money to charity and I would volunteer at a charity. I would also buy a house by the sea in Norfolk and a flat in the centre of London and help out my friends and family and tour the world.

Find a safe surrogate mum for my daughter so she could have a child. 3,Buy her a riding school for the disabled so when she is qualified she has her own yard. 4Buy her an apt in Florida so she could go and warm her bones in the winter [and I could use it too!!]  5. Me and oh could give up work and travel the world and then come back and open a safe house for distressed children. 6. Buy a cottage in Mousehole with a view of Mounts Bay  7.Give to charity and an endless list of worthy causes.

Summer I would do all those things.
Would see my family were ok, that would be the main thing. Love to travel the world with OH before we get too old for these long hauls.
What about those two who have won £90 million between them. Wow ! !!
