Pay off all my bills, buy a new house and car. Pay off all my family members mortgages. Invest and give to good causes.

If I am capable of running a business, I would open up shop and expand over time so that I can provide people with satisfying and worthwhile jobs and careers.

If money and volunteers can make a difference, I would cooperate with foundations or set up my own to get homeless people off the streets and back on their feet again so that they can regain pride in themselves.

I would set up college funds for hardworking students who are passionate about their dreams, my siblings in particular. I would sponsor exchange programs so that students don't have to settle for dreaming about new experiences in foreign lands. On the same note, I would travel throughout the world.

Since only $100,000 are FDIC insured, I would have to find a lot of banks in which to put my money. Investing in stocks is a gamble and I don't care for the loss of control like that. I don't think anybody who suffered losses during the Great Depression ever recovered their losses.

I'd sit back and have a little cognac snifter to relax a bit. Then I'd have my phone numbers changed immediately to eliminate being called by all the 'needy folks' out there who would want to share the largesse.

Then I'd treat myself to some luxuries here and there, just for fun. After getting myself settled with all my 'wants', I'd sit down with my dear wife and start a plan as to how to distributte some of this money to various charities we like.

A billion bucks is FAR more than I would ever need to enjoy everything I could ever want, so it would be necessary to start working on how to give some of it away to recipients who would give the 'best bang for the buck' with the donations.

I would quit my job first. This would give me time to park my car on the side of the road with the hood up, and hand out a $1000 to every person who stopped to help. And any other way I can think of to reward good people who are not looking for rewards.
I would also start a campaign to force all schools in the U.S. to require a financial class in school. Too many kids not able to balance a check book, or know how not to commit financial suicide with credit cards by the time they are 20.

I would invest it so I could retire at 30 or 35. Buy a house, cottage, boat, all the toys I've ever wanted, and pay off all my debts. I'd donate a portion of it to a charity I support, and then I'd go on a vacation to Dubai for a month!!

Start several foundations to help people and turn the rest of the money into much much more through relatively safe investment. It takes money to make money, and with that much, you could turn it into 10 billion.

Well, I wont donate a large part to the scpa to help abused animals, pay off all our bills, quit my job, and start a non-profit to send care packages to our armed services and their families here in the states. Invest the rest.
Great question, Thank you!!
