Your £100,000 Pressie

[joggerjayne]

You can have a pressie.

Up to £100,000

One pressie.

What would you like?

You can't pay off you mortgage.

You can't give it to good causes. There was £1m, and the other £900,000 has already been given to good causes.

You can't invest it.

You can only choose one item.

If it costs less than £100,000 you do NOT get the difference in cash.

Use it, or lose it.

What would you like?

Buy me a bungalow near the beach or in the country side. And thank you very much, greatly appreciated :)

I'd like a Panasonic coffee machine please, a snip at £899.99.......

[joggerjayne]

I've already asked for a Maserati GranCabrio
.

[bookbinder]

I'd invest it in an income bond, and have a steady, guaranteed income, which, as it was paid into my account every month, I would reinvest.

[joggerjayne]

bookbinder ... which bit of "you can't invest it" is too ambiguous?

:0)

[craft1948]

Oh bugger I thought you said 1k............

[The Builder]

A round trip ticket ......... as many countries as possible, good hotels, local food, and a local guide/escort for each country ............. should be a week or two before it all runs out ;o)

[mccfluff]

lots of shiny things, rubies, emeralds, diamonds,

[Psybbo]

Porsche 911 Turbo

[bookbinder]

My enthusiasm ran away with me, there. Oh, well, if I can't invest any of it, would it be OK if I spent it on a round the world cruise? I wouldn't mind one of those.

[Baldric]

The very bestest Porsche 911 you can get for the money

[joggerjayne]

Cars, holidays, jewellery ... and a (relatively) modest coffee maker.

Loving it.

[woofgang]

Gold.

I would want a painting by Modigliani, one of his etiolated nude studies. Though I'm not sure 100K would stretch to one.

[jno]

I suppose it would have to be some sort of car. Houses are too much, everything else is way too llittle except perhaps some jewellery, which I don't really wear.

Maybe some art... but I don't know what good stuff you can get for a mere five figures.

[EcclesCake]

A gift voucher for Quintessentially or any other high end concierge company will do me nicely!

[The Builder]

This would do for me, Sandy .............. anything by Lucien Freud........

oops................ Lucian

[Barmaid]

Well I'd like a new house. £100k is not going to get me the new house I want. Sooooo, I'd want £100k to a top quality home improvements company to put on an extension, a conservatory, a balcony, new kitchen, new bathrooms, mirror on the bedroom ceiling etc.
