Pay off my bills. Help some friends out and enjoy the rest of my life.

Four doors with a good size bed. I would probably go with blue for the color. @Stereoguy

Pay off what’s left on my house and then I go on my own private road trip across the country like I have always wanted to do. ☺️

Once I knew that it wasn't put into my account by mistake and I wasn't going to have to give it back to someone else who was meant to have it, I would:

Buy myself a beautiful dream home near the lake.

Contact the Gerson Clinic in Mexico and see if they could cure my Dad's cancer (not just treat it), as they have been known to actually cure cancer in a lot of people. If not, find another cure, and a qualified doctor who would be able to convince my Dad to give it a try.

Buy a nice new computer for myself, and another one for my boyfriend. We already each have a computer, but something with a lot more memory and a solid state drive would be nice. And perhaps a friend of mine, who know computers inside and out, could put Windows 7 on both of them, since I still believe that that's the best operating system.

Go back to college and eventually get a degree in veterinary science, and maybe open up my own veterinary clinic, and possibly an animal boarding house too, for people who are taking trips and can't take their pets with them.

While I'm going to college, help my nieces and nephews pay for their college tuition and other college-related expenses.

Get married, if things are still good between my boyfriend and me, and see if there's any way we could still have a family. Actually, this would probably need to be one of the first things, after doing whatever I could to cure my Dad's cancer, since time is of the essence.

I'd be down at that bank quicker than shit drawing out my money and closing that account.

@SW-User Yeah, I have nothing against my mother... yet (jk babe) you have such a good heart.

I'd go pick up liss and head towards France.

@Stereoguy I don't like being surrounded by rich people.

Ok. I would make much more extensive inquiries about the deposit. I would ask to see the security footage of the person who made the deposit, and I would request the bank to contact them to make sure they had intended to deposit that money to my account. I would not just accept the word of the first ding-bat with whom I spoke on the phone.

THAT would probably take at least two weeks. If the bank were uncooperative, I would make a police report, and/or tell the bank that I was making a police report.

@Stereoguy Well, I've told you some of them already. But heck...that's a lot of money. I would start out the same way...I would try to disaster proof the money so that if the same sort of bad luck happened, I would still be able to have an old, old age in a nice little apartment with a kitchenette in a care facility.

I know that my son won't take care of me personally, so it would be really nice to be able to have that in my final years. I would set aside enough in a trust so that I could have an income even if I lost my mind and mismanaged everything. (I thought of that because of my mother and her dementia).

And then I would buy a nice house with my 4 man jacuzzi inside a 4 season room, and a super, super security system. I'd like to have a very high wall around my place, so that only birds could come in, or mice, and I'd like to have a barn so I can shelter homeless cats and pay a vet and a couple of cat wranglers...😂

I'd like to have a really nice garden, with lots of vegetables and herbs, and a flower garden in the distance, and a gardener to take care of it.

And I'd like to have a chef, and maybe even get a massage once a week.

By the time I pay for all of that, I think I would be near to broke, but I would have a nice house to leave my son. 😂

😮 Thank Almighty God above for the miracle. Pay off my debt, buy a house, set up college funds for my kids, donate money to charity, give some to some of my relatives.

Figure out how it got there before spending. Or else i may have to give it all back
iamnikki · 31-35, F
@Stereoguy honestly if it magically appeared, i dont think I'd spend it. It wasn't given to me and i didnt earn it. Far as I'm concerned it isnt mine. Open a new account and go from there

@Stereoguy this is too impractical
JimminyChristmas · 56-60, M
Move to different accounts, wait about a 6 months to make sure nothing happens, and then buy a mountain to live on. I would buy all 6 houses on my road, and keep them for people that are important to me. I would have too many animals to count.

I’d get myself a financial advisor and lawyer and transfer all that money to a trust in my name first tbh
@SW-User 🤔 Is your bank account in someone else's name?
SW-User
@Snowvixen no but trusts have various advantages esp w taxes

Buy as much decent housing as possible and rent it cheaply to people in need.

YourBuddyRandall · 26-30, M
@Stereoguy Yessir! But I said I would rent them cheaply, not free. Sustainability is important. The Achilles Heel of most humanitarians is that they give in an unsustainable way. I would approach the situation with intent to be savvy.

Trip to Colorado smoke some weed, while eating in luxury for one week. Proceed to travel to my hearts content around the world. Buy some land like 500 acres and farm it to the end of my days improving the land.

I will buy 125,000,000 worth of gold and store it into my swiss account (I would open of course ). The rest I will give to various charities. Then I will keep living my life as it is now.

Either buy a house or get a house built from scratch. Get driver's license and car. Help out some family and friends. Buy two trips for a later date; to Seattle and Adelaide (preferably during the Fringe). Build a new computer to replace my current one which is from 2010. Take some courses. Save and/or invest some of it, make sure that I keep enough to last me (hopefully) for the rest of my life. Might buy additional property to rent out. Probably tons more I would have liked to do, but that's what I got off the top of my head.
