a) £10 - This would just go on a magazine, EuroMillions ticket, packet of crisps and a bottle of coke or similar. Any change pays for the car park.

c) £1000 - Sort out all the small niggles on the car, you know, all those little things that aren't quite right but you ignore because they don't affect it's running.
d) £10,000 - Torn between a weekend/fun car, or money towards a house deposit. Given I'm a final year student, it should be the house money but it's a head vs heart battle...
e) £100,000 - Money towards a house, including deposit.
f) £1,000,000 - Buy a house outright, or maybe even build one, pay off my parents mortgage (something I've always said I'd do if I came into money) and make the rest work for me to make more.
g) £10,000,000 - As above, but with my dream house, plus an Aston to park in the garage

Upto the £100,000 mark I wouldn't spend any of it,I don't need or want anything that I don't already have money for.
The million and upwards,I'd probably buy a few properties,a nicer house for me and some as income/investments.Maybe a flash motor or 2 and a few nice holidays....I'd take Kelly Brook with me now she's single
