For a relatively small amount of money such as this, it would be better to pay down your debts, than to try to invest it.
If you put it into a CD or mutual fund, your percent return is going to be less (probably far less) than the percent interest you're paying on your car loan, student loan, credit cards, or whatever - pick whichever one has the highest interest rate..
You may choose to use it for vacation of something, and if so, that's certainly your option. But if it were me, I'd pay down some debt. You don't know how good it feel to be debt-free until you are. When I sent in that last mortgage payment, I felt like chains had just fallen off my wrists and ankles. |

If the interest on your car loan is low, don't pay it down - low percentage rates are like free money. Either pay down higher rate credit cards or start an IRA with a lump sum... Then again..... a cruise sounds good too... Just depends on what your goals are... |

Pay off whatever you can. |

If it were me, I would pay down my car loan. Once you get your car loan paid (and doing this would pay it off sooner) you can use the extra money you had been paying on your loan to go towards other bills or investing. The key is before you invest, you should pay down any personal debt such as your car payment. Once you have that out of the way you can take a portion (say half) of what your car payments were to invest in your retirement plan. The other half you could put into an emergency fund. De-stress yourself from those bills first, so when you save up for a vacation you can actually enjoy yourself. If you build up your emergency fund you can always use a portion of that to take a modest vacation, but you should always have a decent amount in an emergency fund. |

Why don't you start an IRA with the $1,500 because living off a just social security (if we still have it later on) is not enough to live on. Then pay off some debt. |

I suggest you to pay down your car loan and then sell your car and pay your bills. |

If you have little liquid assets then save the money in a savings account. Assuming you have some financial padding, Its an inheritence. Take a nice vacation so you have a good experience to remember your loved one by.
If the money came from anywhere else and you had liquid reserves, I would say pay down your debt. |

I would invest half of it into an IRA. I would buy something small that would make me feel good and then I would take the rest of the money and either pay off my smallest bill or at least reduce it so I could pay it off sooner. |

That is not a whole lot of money. But if you can pay off your car with it, do it. If you owe more on your car that $2,500, put $1000 on the principal, and take the rest and go on a holiday!! Enjoy!! |
