spend a million dollars in one day what would you do with it? I would pay my university in advance, then buy a house and a car. I would also buy my family some nice things and the donate some to charity. What would you do with it if you had to spend it in one day?

I would pay off all of my bills including my house and car. I would buy my husband and 15 year old son each a new car. I would buy a new house with furnishings, and would pay for each child's school in advance.

Your spendings sound really close to what i would spend mine on. I think having education paid for and buying a new house and car is worth spending the money on. I dont pay many bills but i def would help my mom out as much as i could in paying off all of hers. I think i would go broke just in helping my family get out of debt lol. My family doesnt know how to handle money very well.

I would get myself and my son a car. (I think) I'd have to think about that one alittle more. I would get a scooter, and golf cart and a jetski. I would get a house, buy christmas presents and if there was anything left I would give a large lump sum to the charity of my choice. That about covers it I think. I'd have no problem with spending it. Making it is the hard part lol!

I would donate a percentage to charity, pay off my housing loan, put aside some money for my daughter's education, pay my husband's course fees entirely and get a rented accommodation for my mother-in-law to live in. Got problems with her now. Sorry about that. Any left over, might go on a holiday around the world or buy a bigger place for my family.

i'm sure i would do very similar things as you mentioned. id pay for college -- by a home for myself, on for my mother and little sister, probably buy her a car as well -- and get myslef a nice one -- i'd invest in some kind of stock and i would buy an apartment building and jazz it up and rent it out!

I'd definitely invest it into something that I'd know would produce more income. I'll also save up half of it at the bank. When I know my income is stable enough I'd help people who are in need financialy. :)
