How would you spend $500,000 in 24hrs and a week to live.

Hypothetically, when our health is okay, majority of us are about the money and materialistic items. If you had $500,000 what would you do, you have only 24 hrs. to spend it. Along with only a week to live. Honestly I think, that I would get my bills intact. Pay all my bills, funeral arrangements and get my family ahead for the next 4-5 months.(Not too far in advance, in case they decide to move or something.) Use $100,000 to buy gift cards and phone cards/minutes of all sorts for the family. Use $500 to buy video equipment, to video messages to my family and to encourage my children when I'm gone. $120,000 in college funds for all 3 of my girls. A reliable vehicle for the family, a home anywhere they want. Life insurance for the everyone (or increase it.) I would then use what's left to visit family for awhile, then go home and just enjoy my children the best that I can. God Bless. Remember we never know if we will have tomorrow, so enjoy those around you.

I will do every thing for my family with that money. I would fulfill all the needs of my family. I would secure the rest of the life of my parents.

I would donate a very big amount to Sea Shepherd and Farm Sanctuary, then would check up all my pets and save the rest , until I knew how to invest.

Thank you for responding. Great choice. It is a shame about the whales and all these endangered animals, I applaud your decision. These animals HOPEFULLY will still be around when we ourselves, let alone mankind is gone.
