Easy enough . . . I would take care of family first, like paying debts and making sure everyone is stable financially. I would take some of the money and use it to help people who are in finacial trouble and are able to pay back after they get on their feet again. Like the housing market is bad and too many people are going into foreclosure. I would lend to those capable of working through their hardship. I would lend them money at a reasonable rate without making it harder for them. The purpose is to help them get through the bad times. Too many investors lend mone;y with intention of big profits. I do not know of anyone who lends for the purpose of truely assisting someone out of temporary hardship and setbacks. Good people have unexpected hardships and need helping trusting hand without incurring added problems. |

Well, it's probably $500,000 after taxes, so I would pay off my house and car, buy a duplex to rent out. Pay off my student loans and finish college. Most of all, I would tell my boss to shuve it! and take my time looking for a new job. Then if a few months, I would be broke except for my rental income (which is a gamble).
If it's 1 mill post taxes, I would invest the rest by paying off my duplex and other rental property. |

Put it straight into the bank to earn interest. But probably not at Northern Rock. |

I would pay off everything I owe, including my student loan. Pay off dad's mortgage and a bunch of his bills. Restore the antique cars at home. Put some in savings and invest the rest. |

I would buy for other people wants important to their lives. A trip for them to enjoy, a computer to do their homework, a nice car they've always dreamed about, etc....
The joy of sharing $ 1,000,000 would far exceed any rewards I could consume for my own personal gratification. |

I would invest it and live on the interest, at 12% that would 120k per year. |

MOVE!, put away some money for my daughters college education, go on a trip around the world, give a big chunk to St Judes, .... then invest the remainder for a nice retirement. I wouldn't stop working... I just would care about my job a little less :) |

Do I have to give any to Uncle Sam?
If not, then, I'd find the highest yielding Bond and sock away 80% of it, give away to M.S. Charity 10%; and live on the remaining 10% and the interest from the Bond |

buy a nice house (wouldn't go over the top but would get a nice one without ever having to worry about bills again) The rest I would buy my friends and family presents with.
Once I have my house all my wages (other than gas bills etc.) I will be able to spend on myself...
Not particularly exciting but if you spend it all on treats for yourself then you will get bored because you have never had to work for anything. |
