Talking Windfalls

Windfalls are sudden unexpected amounts of cash due to good fortune and not to illegal actions like robbing a bank or printing the money yourself.
What would you do if suddenly you received, oh, $500,000 or so?

Another World Wide Booty Tour......

No really I have changed a lot since 1995 so now I would just invest the whole amount in say CB&R stock and wait till they manage to pick apart Rexel and sell off what is left.

If I came into money, I'd pay off my credit card bill, and my college loans, and then probably bail out my jerk of a stepdad and pay off the mortgage on the new house since his job in the auto industry is precarious now. Then I'd shop til I dropped

Oh and my little sister deserves a car and a cell phone, and I need a new car.

And you then would be broke with nothing but a new Jeep and some crap with the Prada label on it. Plus make the stepdad sign the house over to you if you paid it off. As for the sister, don't get suckered in and buy a new car. get a dealer demo and save a few grand that you can put up for the high cell phone bill a young girl can run up in no time at all.

Ok first of all, there is nothing wrong with a new Jeep Unlimited with the inline 6. And for the record, I prefer manolo blahnik and coach to prada or louis vuitton or d&g, etc...

I wouldn't buy my little sis a new car, are you crazy???!!!! no point if she's going to wreck it, may as well get a nice used one and insure the crap out of it to pay for her next car lol.

Renee's usually on the phone because she can't go see her friends... and if she goes over, she gets the same deal my mom gave me: paying twice what the service provider charges for overages. I paid an extra $70 one month, and I never did it again.

I'd pay off my parents house, buy my daddy a new truck with the best seats money can buy (after 30+years of manual labor his body is shot), and I would get my little sister a nice Bronco for when she gets her license next summer (gulp!!). I would also pay off my old debts and try to get a house of my own, and get out of this tiny apartment!

Lucille,
How could you leave travel off the list? A sailboat tour of the Greek Islands would be a fine way to dispose of the extra cash. I'd send you chocolates from my tour stops....
