Move out and buy my house all in one go and I'd also go on a trip to either central Africa or Borneo.

1. Pay off all my debt.
2. Set enough money aside so I can finish my degree without having to get a job.
3. Set enough money aside to cover 1 year's living expenses after graduation while I look for a job.
4. Anything left will be divided between me, my mom, and my friend.

Buy a nice piece of land, build a nice house. Put some aside for further education. Pay of my parents debt, give my sister some money towards land/ house, and use the interest from the rest as spending money

I can't believe nobody has said this yet. It seems so obvious to me. I would put it all towards building a solar farm and start producing clean and renewable energy.

I'd probably do that too! I would not agree to accept gold certificates though and I would insist on having it in my possession. When the gold certificate ponzi scheme is finally exposed, the price of gold will skyrocket and the certificates will be worth less than an equivalent size strip of toilet paper.

I would buy an apartment...as I dont really need a house...around where I presently am in central new jersey and live my life out there..a nice apartment as well...get furniture, a nice TV, etc....I dont really need the latest gadgets or stuff.....just enough to live on and go in day in and day out. I just would save most of it and invest it i guess...dont really desire going all over the world and stuff like that.

Split it between me, my mother, and my sister.

I would take my share and deposit some of it in my bank account.

After, I would donate some of it to worthy non-profits.

The rest I'd keep in a secret place.

Mail-order bride?? But that's like buying a pet woman and calling her your wife.

I'd buy my mother, father, sister, and myself a new home to live in, and pay it off so it's all owned.

Not if I treat her like a person instead of a pet
