I’m buying a house so I don’t have to move every other year. I just wanna a place that I own. Then I would probably pay off my debt, purchase a car of my own so that I don’t have to share mine, set up college funds for all the kids, and donate a little bit of it.
If such an amount hits my account, I am going to buy a house for my siblings and I. My parents are late and doing getting a house with part of the money is the only thing that I can do to make my siblings happier. I will use the remaining to buy stocks.
I replaced my old gear with new gear, like a newcar, a gaming desktop and gaming gear, hell, even have a new office. I bought things that I really wanted for years, then used the money to go away with and do things in life, travel 🙂 also help other people and family out 🙂
Since we're only talking about directly buying a better house, a better car, and better technology, like an ultra-gaming computer, many televisions, a swimming pool in my backyard, etc., the first purchase would be the house.
If $1M hits my account now, the first thing that I would buy is a house. I won't buy just a ordinary house. I would buy a mansion first. That would cost me $300K. I would then settle down afterwards to make other plans for the rest of the money.
