Default If you Had A $1000.000, How Would you Spend It?

---Would you try to live off of it for the rest of your life? Assuming you could?
---Or would you start a business that might generate more income?
---Maybe give some away to charity, or family?
---Take vacations that you never had the money to take before?
---Perhaps buy your annoying neighbors house and kick em out? Or better yet, buy a new house and move away from annoying neighbor?
---Or maybe do all of those things.

My aunt just passed away and left my cousin A Million and he can't decide how to use it. Poor guy. If only I had that same decision to make.

Granted, a Million is not what it used to be, but it's still allot. It would be tough for me to decide what to do with it. But, I know I would start a business. If not for big profits, then for something to do.
But what would you do?

I would get help from a financial person. I would try to invest and give to charity and help some of my relatives. I wouldn't go crazy with it.

I would try to find a way to invest it safely and use most of the interest to supplement my income, and/or maybe buy a tiny apartment. I would probably set aside some for charities as well.

Give to charities. Give to friends and family. Pay bills.

Also massive amounts of hookers and cocaine.

Give some to Friends and Family, and donate to charities !

Live off of it modestly, so it would last me and I wouldn't have to work anymore!! that would REALLY be a dream!! Not to sound lazy or anything , but I'm not a person who really enjoys working very much!

I'd have to move into a secret bunker and go off the grid if my family knew I had that kind of money.

Yeah really ! I thought about that before. If I were to get a massive inheritance or win a huge lottery, I'd sure like to give some to Family and Friends, but I think I wouldn't let on to them just HOW much I had!!!

A million is just enough to live comfortably but not quit your job. This is my pipe dream :

1. Go to Vegas for a week living large ($5,000 total)
2. Pay off bills for me, mother and brother.
3. Buy a new Ford Focus
4. Invest in municipal bonds and mutual funds – live off the interest and my salary
5. Give monthly to local food banks and advocate charities for children/women/elderly
