Pay my house off and eliminate all of my debt. Invest a good chunk of change in Tech stocks.

Swiss account definately 1/2 the money

Pay cash for small 3 bd room house while living off the rest to go to Med School.

Interest in swiss account should be nice after 6-8yrs of college. (always wanted to go but have family and job so it's hard to do)

Nah, just 4 or 5 days.  We stayed in a 4 star in Daytona Beach for a whole week and flight/hotel/car/food/drinks/shopping came out to less than $2500.

First of all, if you're going to Hawaii, you're going to want to spend WAY MORE than 4-5 days - trust me  ;)
Secondly, it's not Daytona.  Prices are WAY WAY WAY more.

Third, if you've just become a millionaire, don't be a cheap-ass!

 ;D

A million isn't that much really. Nice, but in terms of property (depending on where you live, obviously) a million can't get you shit.

Agreed. These days a million is nothing.

I know but that's why I asked.  The idea is to take what used to be a lot of money and use it to make so much more.  And to enjoy it, of course.

After kidneys, a beachfront in Maine, and ditching $200K I don't think you'll have enough interest to live off of.

wouldn't tell a soul I had it basically.

my tolerance (job) would get extremely short the day the check cleared

I'd get my phd

probably spend more time in the gym fighting also

live a nice frugal life actually me and my wife with no stress, take a few trips

work government job and bank majority of the winnings to spend as we go if need be


....basically nobody would know I had the  $$$
