I think £100k would allow me to take time away from work to do courses that would significantly increase my earning potential and invest in something to generate a small secondary income.
Agree with your assessment, probably £2m.The "life-changing" part makes it difficult to answer because there is definitely a scale to that. Every extra £1 makes things a bit different. I've got a good job, nice house and am fairly comfortable. If I got £100k it probably wouldn't drastically change much now but I'd probably be able to retire earlier than I expect and make the impending mortgage rate increase a bit easier when my fix runs out but it wouldn't change my life. If I got £500k I would probably end up moving into a bigger house but the rest of my life wouldn't really change. I'd still be working but we'd be able to afford more holidays, pay for kids stuff when they are older like university, travelling and house deposits which I hope to be able to do anyway but would be more comfortable. Properly life-changing I would say would be retiring now and having my time be my time instead of my employers and that would probably need a couple of million and lot of discipline not to spend it all at once.
I'll chip in with Bri and give him a fiver to renovate the City centre.About £2bn would allow me to buy Hull City and have them competing for the Premier League and Champions League.
I might buy a new Ipad too.
