Oh boy!! That would get me out of so much bill troubles that I am having!!! LOL I would make sure to get things that my family and I need and probably a lot of things that we want to....a million goes a LONG way. I think 1 family only needs so much. Money isn't the only reason for life. Chances are a big chunk of it would be donated, but with all the scams in the world, I would probably find a way to make sure that the money was going were it is really suppose to be going. I myself don't have much food right now, and I have been without a home (with childeren), so I think a lot of my donations would be used to feed, house, and put clothes on poor families. Yet...I would not let the families know where the help was coming from. God doesn't bless the people that flaunt the gifts they give out. So many people have helped me when I am down. I just wish that I could help more people to. I DON'T NEED A MANSION!!!!!, but I would love to own my own home.

Not to charity, because one million dollars does not go along way anymore. I would pay off all my bills, give some to my 2 kids, and invest the rest so it could grow for me.

Well, I would take care of my family first. Make sure that I am financially stable again. But I would definitely set aside a good amount for charity since I would have been a recipient of good fortune. Karma, man... Karma.

I would buy a house and a car and pay my way to get though school, and I would save the rest for my baby Taylor. Then I would give the rest away to people who needed it.

Well, Im a single mother so I would use the money for me and my baby girl. First, I would pay off my credit card debt, buy a nice modest home for me and my baby, buy a car or small SUV, buy lots of things for my daughter...all the baby essentials and buy clothes for myself...I haven't bought anything for myself in a while... and put the rest in savings...I want to be able to send my daughter to private school and I want her to go to college.

I would tithe 10 percent. I would blow the other 90 percent. And the next day I would drive my fancy car back to work and wish I had saved some of it.

I would pay off all my debt, buy a new house in a new town, buy my husband a new car, and then invest the rest so I can live on the interest.

I would pay off my car, my house, and probably give enough to my parents to pay off their house, then save the rest in a high yeild mutual fund, and if i see a charity i thought was deserving, i would give soem to them.

a little bit of both I think. Probably pay off student debt first, then give a bunch to charities....

Put it in a bank and live off the interest for years to come...that and you could donate some of the generated money
