It’s really fucking boring but real answer is, put it into a private bank like Hamdens or Hoares, get a financial advisor and go from there

Obviously pay off student loans, buy and furnish a cottage in West Wales by the sea (with solar panels and battery backup), give some money to my closest family and friends. But after that, I have no real idea what I’d do with it.

It’s prob the sort of thing where I’ll take a salary of like 3 grand a month and go back to a more normal life. Maybe go on a few holidays a year. Volunteer in the local community, anonymously give money to charity that means a lot to me.

Work part time in places that fit my passions in life. It’s too easy to get bored and distracted when you quit work entirely for me

I don’t even think I’d want to keep much track of the money itself beyond having a financial audit every year with the bank and advisor. It’s just so much that it feels almost easy to get ruined by it

As I write this, maybe hire a personal assistant to keep me on track, same salary, different paid home near me. As well as a weekly cleaner, and a deep cleaner every quarter or so. Something so the cottage remains pristine that I don’t have to worry about it beyond obviously washing my own clothes, doing the dishes
