If you had :)

What would you do if you had $1.5 Million dollars? How would you spend it? Would you help other's?

My going rate is ten percent given to charity of all money earned above and beyond my two and a half full time jobs. So if I had one and a half million dollars given to me I would donate one hundred and fifty thousand dollars to a well thought out, lesser known, charity. All current family debt would be paid off and the rest would be put into a conservative investment earning five to six percent which, after taxes, would keep pace with the cost of living increase every year. I would then ear mark the money, in a trust, for my two kids-to be released over a thirty year period upon my death. A trip would be nice but I would prefer to earn a trip rather then using the proceeds of a windfall. I think that hard earned money makes the appreciation deeper.

I would first pay off debt, and then probably make donations to community housing charities.

I would buy a new house, a car and all new furniture for my home and give some to my family.

omgosh this would be a dream come true for sure --i would first buy my house and pay off all my bills --then i would help some people out --then i would build a rescue and save as many dogs as i could !

Honestly, if I had that money I would pay off our bills, invest a amount,  give a sizable amount to my family/close friends.  I would them build a huge non-kill shelter for dogs and cats.  It would cover acres of land, NO animals would be kept in cages.  I would have dog runs built.  A huge hospital for the pets open 24/7, staff on the premises 24/7, I would donate an amount to cancer charities and give to a nursing home that I volunteer in.

That is a great question.  I would take some of it and share it with my family first, donate some, help others who are in need (cause I'd love to be a "secret Santa") and of course, I'd probably hire a very smart accountant/lawyer first!!!  Ah yes, but to dream!!!

I would live comfortable but I would invest it wisely. then I would re invest into real estate. it hardly ever goes down in value.

I would take time to visit my favorite CPA to figure out how much I need to send the IRS.  My way of saying I would pay taxes on it first.

After that, I would visit a Toyota dealer and choose a dream car.  I would also invest in insurance and plan a vacation to visit my parents in Montana. 

Then I would book a cruise and pay all expenses for my loved ones.  Any of them who want to be included would be welcome because memories are priceless.

Then I would sit back and observe to see who approaches me with the intention of manipulating me financially.  That could be a real eye opener.

[lguzman1]

If I had 1.5 million of dollars I would pay all my debt and by a house for my parents and for myself.
