Re: If you had $1,000,000...
I would put it in several savings accounts (several since they are only insured up to $100,000.00) live off the interest. I would be cautious on who I gave some money to, because you would soon have more friends then you remember having. I can count my friends on one hand.
Live life normally and still work at my job because I love doing what I am doing. If anyone is ever in need of shoes and is ever in the Asheville, NC area visit me at the Dillard's in the Asheville Mall and I will professionally fit your feet in shoes.

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
I'd pay off my student loans and my house, give money to my college (Union Theological in the City of New York), figure out how much i needed to invest to guarantee some income for life, and then enjoy giving the rest away. How fun would that be!!!

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
After the inital shock here's what I would do.
Pay off mortgage (onoy debt I have) Sell house add this money to my stash Buy new house for cash Buy a motor home to WWOOF it around Australia without worries The remaining I would put half in a high interest internet account that I could get easy access to. Live off the interest 1/4 into a balanced managed fund and the final 1/4 into superannuation. Not sure if I would give my family or friends anything. Would have to wait and see how they reacted.

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
A million would generate enough interest to live on. My husband could quit working 7 days a week, and only build when he wants to.

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
hummm, if I had $1,000,000 I would pay off our current mortgage ($111,000) then sell our current house ($150,000 - giving us $39,000 back), purchase a newer BIGGER house with some land in kansas ($250,000), pay off the new houses taxes for 5 years in advance (taxes are cheap in kansas so I would say $2,500 for 5 years) That leaves me with: $676,400 - give or take).
That means I would be living mortgage free so the only bills I would have is utility/phone bills. I would probably furnish the new house with some items and stuff but all in all I would have let's say $576,400 left, I would put that in a high interest rate savings account and let me earn some more. Might even think about opening a business though.... Gosh I only wish.... oh send me an invite to that party too!

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
pay off all debt including the mortgage & live off the interest, see how that goes and then upgrade anything we'd like. The house would be the first on the list!

Re: If you had $1,000,000...
My 14yo son said that he would buy a $200-300k hous and a hybrid care all bought outright. The remainder he would invest while he continues to work and save more.
Me? I won't be working, that's for sure. I don't need a big home. 2-3 bedrooms would do fine. Bought and paid for. A silver BMW, with black leather interior and a slamming music system. The remainder I would invest so that I could have a modest income for the rest of my life then,I'd buy two dozen crabs, some beer, and relax.
