EVERYTHING. It is all been passed down to my name.

A volvo estate car thats about 8 years old, very good condition.
2 dogs
All house contents.

Keep and move into the house, or rent it out and live with ur parents if they're around. Invest the 80k in gold for example, dont leave it in the bank to depreciate, Sell the ****ty Volvo and play with the dogs.

This is what I would do...Originally Posted by MrGregory
Use some of 80k to renovate house (if needed). Rent it out, and gain yourself a steady income. Rents are high at the moment, and house prices are still recovering, so this is best course right now IMO.
Keep or sell car depending on your requirements.
Look after the dogs yourself. It's what your grand-ma would have wanted.
Make diverse investments with the rest:
You're UK, so you've got a £10'680k personal ISA allowance. £5'340 of that is cash allowance, so I would take advantage of that first. Put rest of allowance in a stocks and shares ISA. New tax year starts in April, so you've only got a few days to get money into these schemes for year ahead.
Say you've renovated house, that still leaves you £60k to play with, so I would clear any debts I already had and look to invest most of the rest. What you do from here depends on how financially savvy your are and your appetite for risk and how long you are willing to spend managing your assets. Personally I would put say £10k in a higher risk fund, and rest in lower risk investments.
I would also set aside £5k just to have fun with.
Congrats OP. If you make this money work for you you can be set for life, just about.
EDIT: Depending on personal circumstances, are you renting, or living at home, fully employed etc? I would still rent out grand ma's house, then use vast majority of her savings as deposit on a flat for yourself. Buyers market at the moment, and with the large deposit the repayments will be manageable.

It's a generational thing I think. They all got to buy houses at £8k in 1950 which have gone up 15-20x in value.Originally Posted by AnIrIsHbOy
Also bought up to live within means, save, not waste money etc.
