If I had a  million dollars, I would pay off our house, build a new one, and put some money away for my kids. I would try to give some to each of my family members as well.

I would have fun with my family and sock the rest away, of course after buying a house and a new car.

I'd invest some of it into stocks, among other things. On top of starting a morgage on a new house, nothing too flashy so it wouldn't drain my till. Then I'd find ways online to increase that money. :) It takes money to make money.

Give my baby the world. i no sounds wierd but it isnt. Idontcare about me. I care about her and giving her everything. Since the day she was born shes had hell, she is really my niece, but my sister was on drugs and didnt want her. So i tookk her in and have raised her since the day she came out the hospital, and im in the process of adopting her forever. She is 2, and id give her the world. And help out other little kids who have parents that dont want them, abuse them or do drugs while pregnant.   :wave:

I would pay off all of my undergraduate student loans and put the rest back into investing (bonds, CDs, savings accounts) and continue to live as if I didn't receive anything so I can retire earlier.

I'd help my brothers. One of them is laid off and the other one needs money for a down payment on a house. I'd save the rest so that my husband and I could retire early.

I would donate it to an animal welfare program like RSPCA or The Humane Society, as well as underfunded shelters.  :)

I would have to say keep bills paid in advance, find a fix'er upper house to buy rather cheaply, get a decent runnig car by buying a used car with some mileage and set some back for my daughter's college fund!!! Start a business that really helps out the community! (I know most of this is material but hey you can't take it with you when you go!)

WOW i would need to stop crying :P  Then pay off our college debt, buy us a home, as well as do the same for my sister.  I would then let my parents pick a lovely house, and IF we still had cash left over i would start with basics, furnature, bills, clothing, etc. 

Maybe i would buy a Cross stitch kit or 2 (hundred)

Pay off credit card, buy a new car, buy a small home, give to 2 favorite charities, share with son and his family, and it would either cause me more stress or get rid of a lot it.....

Pay off every single one of our bills and debts.  Buy a house, two cars, than put the rest away into savings for our kids college and future.
