my own personal chef.

I love cooking way, way, way too much to do that.

Lessons from Blumenthal and others, plus a top class kitchen I may consider splashing out on, but I'm happy pootling through cookbooks and experimenting as I am.

If my family was lucky, i would get them a stipend of 10,000$ per year, I wouldnt want to spoil them.

This is an important consideration. When dealing with large sums of money like this, your utility is probably exactly the same whether you keep it all for yourself or split it between 20 of your closest friends and family members, but why spoil so many people? That's just irresponsible. Keep the money to yourself.
