I’ll buy a business and run it. Then the kids will grow up knowing that they will have a real job for them if they are no good at school. They can also experiment at our business and continue to work in our business. Eventually, it will become a family business and it will help them in the future and their family too. I don’t want them to follow what I did. Work hard for other business to get money and if I’m no good I get fired. I’ll let the money help my kids’ future.

my advise to all of you that said “id quit my job” is NOT to do that ,keep your job , 1 mil is not enough to do that right off of the bat ! if your not a doctor or a lawyer or a stock broker you can still live like one WITH your average joe job, invest a good percentage for a good return , buy some nice things with some of it , but more importantly use that mil to take the stress and worry out of your life, now if its over 7 million NOW thats a different story, but not 1 mil.

Real estate, purchase multiple properties in the area which are capable of producing a reasonable monthly return each (a $120,000 home rents for approx $1200 per month in our area, $800.00 per month would be more than reasonable after taxes and insurance per property x6 houses would yield $4800 per month with $2400 per month left for repairs, taxes and insurance) use the proceeds to accelerate the payoff on the current house (continuing to work of course) Depending on the market, create a 5 yr plan to retire. Cashout or continue to be a landlord, that depends on real estate values.

I would use it to open an ALL ANIMAL RESCUE in my area. There isn’t one and there are so many animals. Would add on to our house we we could use the extra rooms to help fund the rescue. If there was any left we would put it away so there was always money for the rescue. Yes its all about the animals..

Firstly, I would quit my day job.
Then, I would pay all the bills for my wedding.
Continue on, I would then buy a new or renovate house for my parents.
By then, I would give time to work at SPCA and orphanage.
Invest some on stocks/properties.

First I would find out who to thanks. Then I would get my husband to stopping working to take care of his health problems . Then I would pay off all of our debts and spend the rest of my life working in the service of others in need.

I’d be retired. Immediately
I live low enough on the hog that the interest alone on it would be three times my annual salary, so it would be no problem to quit working

I’d move more rurally and have room for fruit trees as well as as bigger garden. Except for moving I’d let the money ride mostly

I’d finish getting my daughter thru nursing college, and I’d set up college accounts for all my grandkids

And I’d be able to give, from the interest, to my fav charities locally. I think except for being able to give more generously, and to spend more time with my family (not working) my life would not change a lot as I’m already about as happy as a person can be.
