I'd get pissed on a regular basis and buy special software to ensure the tails on my lower case Gs were not cut off.
Or orft! ggggg!

This is something I just don't get with footballers. Players are always looking for or wanting bigger, new contracts. Loyalty is pretty much out the window now. But what does it really matter if you are earning £110,000.00 a week or £200,000.00 a week. You can't spend it, you are a footballer so it's not like you can jet off on holiday each week or get pissed every night.

Goerge had a damn good go at it

The most curious thing..
For how long?

Even I can drive only one Ferrari at a time, and they are useless for taking the empties down the tip.

They have to bung a shed load into their pension scheme to make sure they can maintain their lifestyle when they retire with knackered bodies. You need a big pension pot to pay £1m plus pa from the age of 35.

I'd buy Goldstone Retail Park and rebuild the old ground back.

I would get my helicopter licence and fly over Selhurst Park every match day playing Sussex By The Sea over massive speakers like Apocolypse Now.

Whilst dropping Seagull shit everywhere....

I would probably pay myself £1,000 per week and then use the rest "sponsor" Sergio Aguero (or other Spanish speaking centre forward) to play at an award winning stadium at Falmer.

Or I would buy a tractor. I love tractors.

I'd by a house every month or so, maybe even by a whole street knowing that it would set up any family/offspring for a long long time afterwards

On another note, if you were a world class footballer (lets stick with the theme and say Yaya Toure), would you want to play for United/Barca/Arsenal or would you be happy to play for Brighton in the Championship and (inevitably) the Premier League because it's your home town?

A few years ago probably cocaine although I wouldn't be here now if I blew 220k a week on it.

So I'll settle for a couple of stunning hookers and a packet of twenty Benson & Hedges. :p

Live Mortgage free - my god that feeling would be amazing.

Buy a nice car or 4. not a good investment but when you're on that money...

Ensure my family and close friends could also live mortgage free. And buy them expensive gifts for birthdays and Xmas.

Go on Caribbean holidays, ski holidays (footballers can't do this I know) and city trips every year.

Save a lot to ensure you could keep your luxury lifestyle when retired. I say save... I mean invest really as I wouldn't want thousands/millions in the bank.

Give some to charity.

Give some money to the schools I attended.

god knows what else. It's an extreme amount of money lets face it.

I would think Man Utd / Barcelona / Arsenal have all won their domestic league and European trophies, but my hometown hasn't so I would like to help them achieve these ambitions, which is far more ambitious than helping Barca win another CL.

Firstly I would buy Crystal Palarse and liquidate the place first thing on Monday morning. Apart from that I would have loads of whores round my new gaff on a daily basis. Additionally I would have a burger king once a fortnight, think that's enough for me, Im so easily pleased.
