If you were to win a million or more what would be the first thing you would do?

After paying Uncle Sam, which would leave roughly half of the million left, the first thing I would do is pay off all of my debt and my house. Then I would pay for college for my son and set up a college fund for my daughter. The rest would be invested toward retirement. Fortunately, or unfortunately, I have this incredible practicality that keeps me very grounded so I would not be able to go out and blow thousands of dollars on something I don't need.

If I won a million dollars the first thing I would do is give God back his 10% Then Uncle Sam would get his share. Then there is my debts then come a nice second hand car then I would buy a nice little place back in my home state for somewhere around $50,00and become totally self sufficient. see what i could about some of the charities for kids.

Well, the first thing I would do is pay off al my bills, and then start looking for a new house. I think after that I would take a month long vacation to see some of the things that I would otherwise never be able to see. Take care!!

I would probably faint! I think I would pay off the bills and buy a house and use some for charity .

Well fainting is better than a heartattack there which I think I would have or I would go into shock then I would go buy a car pay my bill for a couple of months then take off too see my kids. then I would put money back for my daughter to go to college on then live off rest
