selfish: disown the same immediate family members so they won't be able to hit me up for additonal $, and move to spain to start over.

Answer 1

I'd take all the money and park it where it'll generate the strongest monthly revenue, then take 25% of that cashflow and sponsor the development of a poor village somewhere. I'd ensure it had its own clean water supply, that it was energy-independent, that its children were educated, that there was a library stocked with a broad book selection and many of the world's best periodicals and that there was a free clinic dispensing care and advice to everyone who needed it.

The goal would be to transform it into a healthy, sustainable village that was simply as independent and as happy as a place could be, and for as little money as possible.

Perhaps it could become a model for development within a broader region.

Answer 2

Let's see, I have spent over 25 years privately researching for a few cures privately, (cancer,aids and any virus that mankind has to deal with) so I'd open up a research and developement firm and do the lab experiments that I need to get done that could be a possible cure for cancer, aids and any virus that's out there.
I also have a system that will by pass the electric and gas companies for home electrical energy and the same system can be used in an automobile to replace the internal combustion engine. I've found a way to bend the magnetic field of energy and using the repulsionary field of energy in the magnetic field, the system will turn a small dynamo to create d c electric energy and using a varible resistor, you can control the energy to a three phase d c electric motor. (like an accelarator) to drive the auto anywhere you want to go. so that the gas companies, electric companies and petroleum companies couldn't monopolize the industry and they would have some catching up to do. find ways to help people in general any way i could.
