So, lets do a hypothetical setting right here.

Lets say that someone were to give you $1 million, or the current exchange rate equivalent thereof, in the currency of your country. And it come with no consequences. No drawbacks. No need to pay it back. A gift.

What would you do with it? Would you spend it? Invest it? Hold on to it? Give some away? Donate to charity (HB counts under that one)?

What would you do with that?

Get divorced before they hand me the money. Then pay everything off and move away. Invest what I need to make sure I'd have enough to last me long enough and then splurge a bit.

I would probably get a house, ridiculously powerful new computer and a new smartphone. Then I'd probably invest good portion of what's left (most likely in several different things) and maybe travel a little (if nothing else as a weeb I'd have to go to Japan).

Give a chunk to my mother. Buy a new car. Pay off debt. Try to supplement my quality of living for my remaining decades with the remainder.

Buy myself new car. Something fuel efficiant and reliable.
Get better photograhpy equipment and get more involved with that.

Well, that would be the first things. House would probably follow, a bike most likely.
But I would definitely try to leave as much as possible to open my own car shop. Hire some mechanics, get them quality tools and workspace and run a car shop as ive dreamed.

Buy a nice house and invest the rest. Possibly more than one house and just flip them after so many years.

Ha, that's a really easy qestion for me, since I have a plan, I just need money (like Dutch van der Linde ;p). First of all I would have to invest half a milion to get an investor visa and could live in US - that's the hardest part of the plan, and having such a amount of money would make it much easier. Then (the most imortant thing) I would sing up for Alcor (Crionics company). The rest would go for an apartment and living while I would look for a job. If I had more I would donate to SENS Research Foundation, because we NEED people like them. And maybe I should also buy meself some damn english classes ;). That's my plan anyway, and since I don't have a milion I have to go the hard way. It's funny how some CEO can get 15$ milions just bc and for many of as, well we most likely never see that much of money.

Buy a house, quite my job, buy two really nice drumsets and a lot of other equipment, buy some instruments and maybe other gifts for my friends, build a new computer with the latest and greatest hardware - and then probably go on vacation for a week or two.

Buy a house. Divide the rest into two and invest one half to make sure my wife is better secured when I'm gone and invest the other half in research of my rare disease.

Pay off my student debt
Buy a proper PC+VR, PS4, Switch
Invest it into something with a decent-okay rate
and I guess continue living as I am now, finding a job, the usual jazz. It would be such a nice feel having such a safety net..

Financial Adviser, they get you buying and get you selling. Sounds good, but if you have to trust someone else with your money, you already lost.

Coke and Whores. At least you know you had fun and lost.

At this point in my life, maintaining a yard is a chore. I'd go with moving to somewhere where a house costs under $100k and the rest in mutual funds and mixture of bonds and dividend funds.
