      How much money we are talking about? If it is really a lot, then I would like to set up an research institute together with a hospital.

      I know I should probably say something worth while and some science i would but the money towards, but really I would just travel the world.

      If i got offered the money to put into science – I would give a local cancer charity I currently work for some of it. I would want them to put it towards summer scholarship funding for teenagers who are interested in becoming scientists. This would mean that we would be able to have them in the labs in their summer holidays to give them a taste of life as a scientist so that they could see if science is a good choice for them as a career.

      If it was to be for me personally, I would like to think I would still give some money to my favourite charities, but I would also do something quite sensible with the money like buy a house and maybe go on a couple of nice holidays to somewhere which I couldn’t normally afford, like New Zealand for example.

      I’m with Carla on this one, I would most likely go travelling!

      I’ve answered this somewhere else, but I’d buy a boat and a house on a lake!
