1. I would buy a new home for myself and my immediate family. 2. I would send money to others in my family. 3. I would buy a new, awesome computer (3 monitor system, of course :D). 4. I would buy myself a cool car. 5. I would give money to my local school system, because the schools SUCK! 6. I would spend the rest on things that I see may be cool. I would of course save some of it!

Depends on the amount but.. 1. I'd pay off our debt & pay off our house mortgage. Just doing that we would financially be set to do whatever & actually be able to afford necessities which leads to.. 2. Buy clothes & shoes my family desperately needs 3. Help out our adult children, not necesarily giving them money out right b/c they don't know how to handle money just blowing it on frivilous stuff like they do now getting help with the gov't. 4. Put the rest up for savings b/c something is always needing repaired/replaced 5. Provide needed things for a few chairities. Sorry I'm not one to give money to them b/c most of the money donated doesn't go to help the actual people. I won't go into this but one hurricane disaster proved that & yes we gave money to help.

I will buy a new house and lot. I will buy car for my daily use. Save others for the future used. Start a new business in order for it to grow and add the money more and help those people who are in need of help. What I mean share to the foundation that needs help and food.
