No I'm not going to post any paid to read links, or any ads in this discussion, I just want to know. If some one gave you a million dollars tax free, no strings attached what would be the first thing you'd do with it. I'd put it in the bank and only take out what i needed to lie on I could live for a few years on a million dollars. It is nice sometimes to dream about being rich, even if I never will be :)

Me too! I'd pay of all my bills, including my mortgage. Then I would buy college plans for my kids. Then I would take a couple of weeks off from work, and then travel with my family. If there is anything left over, I would get me a good stock broker to invest the money. After that, I'll go back to work and feel a little better knowing that I don't have any debts.

The first thing i want to do is to take my family, especially my father and mother, on a vacation. They have worked hard all their life. If I have a chance to have a lot of money, it will be my priority to make them happy.

I completely agree. If I had a million dollars, no strings attached, I would give a good portion of that money to my parents because I realize how hard they have worked in order to make my life easier than they had it.

The first thing I would do is pay off all my debts. Maybe build a new home.
