As a rec player, I take out $130k and play some $50/100 tourneys.
Few nice holidays, do up the house and generally live without much worry.

I'm 57. I have no debt, nor do I have a pension or a regular income. What would you suggest I do with a £150k win?
Depends what lifestyle you are happy with, would you want to splurge it all on holidays or consumer goods or would you want to play higher stakes and enjoy that? You could give it away? |

Use it to provide a regular income for x years,either by investments or otherwise, if it was me. If I won a nice chunk like that now it'd be clearing the finance on my tractor etc, make business life easier, use the rest for a depo on my own yard. Poker wise just keep playing the same, like has been said there'd be no harm done in having a pop at one or two biggies though. |

Buy a house with small mortgage and rent it out. Would bring my retirement forward quite a bit, min 5 years.

Buy 3 IMO then and have the capital growth as well bringing your retirement even further forward. |

Would use a lot of it to buy a portfolio of high yielding shares. Should be able to get 5k income with 100k and no need to hope your tennant doesn't do one. Annuities pretty bad at 57. Do uou get a full state pension at 65 or whenever it is? |

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Property investment of some kind would be very hard to beat for me. Rental income would provide protection against inflation. Since it's much harder to sell a house, you're much less likely to want to do so at the wrong time if the market takes a downturn.
For someone without prior specialist knowledge, I think it's much harder to make a serious mistake with property.

European medium term notes
You need £100k minimum to get involved hence Your $150k winnings
Find a good FA and i mean GOOD
Obtainable is 20% paid monthly over 10 months direct into your bank with your initial investment placed in a trust which nobody else can touch.
Now i can already hear all the doubters getting ready to have a go at me, save your breath its a fact
As always i am only trying to help

Yeah 100% would tell her indoors the amount was less than it actually was. If she found out she would nag me into buying a bigger house instead of simply paying it off, which nitty old me would insta-do. |
