This is a dream of mine so I know what I would do.
1. Give 10% to the church
2. Become debt free
3. Invest the rest to help our daughter

1. Buy a house, tired of living here.
2. Send tickets to my family and invite them to come visit us.
3. If there are still some left, it will be into saving account.

1) Buy a monkey (Haven't you always wanted a monkey?)
2) Buy a green dress (But not a real green dress -- that's cruel!)
3) Buy your love!  :heart:

(Wait, haven't I heard that somewhere....)

Hmm.... maybe it'd be more like:

1) Pay off my debt
2) Give a bunch to charity
3) Help out my family
4) Buy all the Barenaked Ladies albums (oops, too late)

First I would pay off me and my husband's school loans and then I'd probably buy a house and just put the rest in a savings account for my future kids. :)

1) Put it in a bank and collect interest
2) After collecting a little bit of interest, start sharing it among family
3) Travel and shop

I would buy a house ( get out of this apartment), finally buy a new car because the car I have has major issues, and get rid of all my debt.

Pay all bills, invest, and try to reach 5MIL+.  Then I could retire and travel the world.

Actually, that makes sense... Probably instead of just giving a lump sum to charity, I'd try to set up some type of foundation to invest the money in, and have the charity take the earnings from the interest. A lot of college scholarships are started that way; some benefactor gives the school a large lump sum of money, but instead of just dividing up that money among their students, they'll actually invest the money and use the interest earned by the money to create the scholarship. This way the money will last much longer.
