its funny how we treat money ,
If you had to work, and save that amount you would be really careful how it was used. But if its a gift it is used more carefree as almost a give away

I'd pump 100% (okay maybe 90%) into my business venture and hopefully be able to fire my boss in short order.

I think the money as part of a down payment for the daughter to get a house is good. She will pay less tax on her earnings and real estate is bound to hold its own for awhile before increasing. At least that's been the cycle for 50 years.
What's all this talk about a vacation? Hugh's job IS a vacation. |

Save it for a rainy day. Not often do you get left money. Its a good cash emergency fund. Keep it for retirement , the way things are going you might need it.

I'd take that loooooong vacation you've been dreaming about for a long time. It would be the kind where you go somewhere and don't have to ask the price. Just bring me that or this, lets ride here and there, and relax, and relax more and more. Come back later to the same life as you had, but much more relaxed.

What would I do with the money?
1) Barrett 2) Inexpensive sports car (my current thoughts are a 914 or Lotus 7 replica) 3) The rest goes into the boy's college fund. Of course, your situation is much different than mine.

What?!?!

We can only do 3 things with money...
Spend, give away and save. I would do varying levels each. Esp giving away.
