1. Give away a sizeable chunk. (Don't worry. It will come back to you.)
2. Get out of debt.
3. Take some classes toward a certification of some kind. Don't bother with degree programs yet. For most purposes they're way over priced.
4. Put the rest into a form that will hold its value or grow over time. Don't put it in a savings account, because the US dollar is a very bad investment.

I would pay off some of the bigger debts, then use some for collage classes so that I could get a better job. I'd also use alittle of it to buy clothes for my new, better job. |

First, I would pay off the debts. Second, I would look into improving my education.
Here is an article that shows high paying jobs that don't require a 4 year college degree.

Step one, put $20,000 into a 12 month CD to hold until tax season next year.
Step two, pay off all your debts.
Step three, put $4,000 into an IRA
Step four, put money into a 529 for your kids education so he/she can have better opportunities.
Step five, go eat a nice dinner. |

Pay off the debt. Its a monkey thats hanging on your back and will stop you doing any thing. If you pay it off, then you will earn so much more then you do now, cos you wont have all that repayments each month. |

If the credit limit is shot, don't raise further credits, Pay majority of the debts, because what ever the money u have received today, u r not going to receive in future. Tell the creditors that i have received only this much of money by way of a settlement and i request u to accept, and if possible,relieve me. However, in case in future i get extra money i shall pay u the rest of the money, since my salary is low and i have to maintain my mom also. Don't purchase the house. Just stay in the rented room. Today u may be underpaid, tomorrow your salary may increase and u may no more remain underpaid. The situation of underpayment may make u to work harder for the future life.
Remaining amount may be kept in the bank in fixed deposit, to earn interest upon it, which increase your income, as well as the funds can be made available in case of the exigencies to take care of the mom. |

I would use some of it for debt, but most of it I would use to make more money somehow (not gambling lol, something safe) |

Pay off debt and try to re-establish good credit.
Look into classes to further education to facillitate better job in future. |

You are grossly underpaid most likely due to your sub-par education. You have a lot of debt due to your underpaid job.
Get your debt under control either by credit counseling or pay it off if possible. Invest the rest in a small starter home/condo - you will begin growing equity almost immediately.
Get financial aid and return and get a good education either at a community college or online ( I got my bachelor's at St. Leo University online - only way I could do it with a disabled child and mother on chemo). There are lots of grants available to single women of low income with children.
Make a plan and work the plan. |

Buying a small hose or condo is something you can do, even with bad credit. With 50K down somebody will loan you money if you can find something for100K or so. That's 50% down. Find a Realtor who can help you. Have someone you trust, like your parents or a close friend who can help you look over any contract you might sign. Don't blow this windfall, you're going to need it, and it will benefit you the rest of your life to be careful with that money. |

I would pay off all of the debt, so that I could repair my credit, which would give me the option to buy a house toward the end of 2008...(the prime lending rate is rumored to be hitting rock bottom of about 2.5 percent at the end of 08 and alot of homes that went into forclosure will be liquidated by the banks)-(Bernake mentioned this)
If I had anything left over, I would pay off my car....Then if I had anything else left over... I would take a small vacation.
Now if you were in a different circumstance, I would tell you to put the money into some type of interest earning account....like savings, and let it earn interest for you. |
