If I had 2 Million $'s, I would pay off all my debts, get a new house built, 3 large bedrooms, large kitchen, large bathrooms, two car garage, large backyard, paved driveway, then give to my church.

Pay off all bills, put most of the rest in some kind of investment to live off of and have a good sized slush fund in savings that was easily available for medical bills, emergencies and travel.

I would assume that the two million dollars would be above and beyond what I was currently earning and investing. I would quit one of my three jobs so that I could spend a little time analyzing investments and good places with which to place the money.  I would invest one and a half million dollars conservatively in a balanced portfolio earning five percent which would pay me seventy five thousand dollars a year and of that earned money: thirty thousand dollars would go taxes, twenty five thousand would go back to the initial two million and twenty thousand would be added to what I give to my family already. I would use the other five hundred thousand dollars for other, riskier ventures. I have lived a long, hard working and frugal life and wish to leave my children well off.

If I had $2 million dollars, I would get all my bills and my daughters' bills paid off, support a few charities and save the rest.

First thing is always to get out of debt. That would be my focus. Put money away for children's college, help other family members, and then do some investments. Then I would see how I could enjoy some of that money.

I would donate a lot of money to charities, travel, pay off loans, give some to family and friends, buy lots of clothing, and buy lots of amazing skincare products.

1. The first thing I would do is to split $1 million to St. Jude's, Shriner's, Wounded Warriors, Dan Band for veterans, and there's another veteran organization.
2. Give $50K each to 2 sons.
3. Buy hubby's dream '55 Crown Vic.
4. Finish this house the right way. Hmmm. Tearing down and rebuilding might be easier. :)
5. Invest the rest.

It would be so fun if you were rich to secretly pay someone's rent or randomly surprise people with $1000 tips and things like that.

I would do the following:

1. Pay off my two student loans

2. Pay off my automobile loan

3. Pay off my mother's expenses

4. Purchase a four-bedroom home in the south

5. Invest in the stock market (or real estate)

6. Donate to a few charities and my church

I would pay off all of my expenses, too!

Hmmm id set 500,000 in a retirement account that gets invested. I'd put 1 mill in savings with high interest and just live off the interest. For the remaining 500k it go into stocks and bonds for non retirement
