I’d pay off student loans. Then the house, then the cars.
Pay off every bit of debt, then quietly upgrade my life in ways no one could question — like ‘wow, she’s glowing lately’… yeah, that’s financial peace, babe
Pay off the house and buy a second. If someone asks I’ll just say I have a mortgage still.
I would sink some money into fixing my house. New guttering, full exterior repaint, gardens redone, new bathroom with a nice tub. I love my house and I wish I had more money to look after her.
Pay off debts, buy a kick-ass guitar and amp.
pay off all my debt then just exist and not be stressed out anymore
I’d just sell our home and buy a slightly nicer home, nothing crazy, but a big back yard and another bedroom would set me right. We can save the rest.
Pay off the mortgage and a portion of my partner’s debt. I guess it would be noticed by him quite quickly, but I’m including hlm in my secret. The rest would be put away where it can gain some interest so I could actually plan a retirement of sorts.
Pay off all my debt!
A car, a normal one.
I’d say a house, but I don’t think I could get away with that secretly. I am in need of a new PC though. so I will go with that.

Buy mom a Las Vegas trip . Mail it to her like it’s from publishers clearing house.

I would probably donate a portion of it for people in need. They don’t have to know it was from me. 😊
Buy a bigger home
Buy a bitchin’ car like a 1959 Deville and pay off mortgage.
Pay off this house, rent it out, move and not worry about fina plates too tough.
New roof. New flooring. New furniture.
Buy my own place, definitely
Debt, house, investment
I’d buy a newer car. Not anything flashy, just something solid and without a lot of bells and whistles that will run for 200,000 miles.
Then I’d invest the rest and use some of the interest each year for a nice vacation. The peace of mind of having that money in the bank will buy me a new glow.
Pay off my mortgage and then I’d go on a trip
I’d probably put it all into dividend stocks and when I reach retirement age start taking the dividends and tell people I’ve been saving my whole life
Pay of my car. Buy an investment house, rent it out. Passive income.
I’d buy a house for me and tell everyone I’m renting the owner is an old friend of mine who is giving me a great discount on rent. One of the rooms and the garage would be just for my hobbies
Neuro rehab!
A new car and some Lego sets.

Pay off all of my debt. I’d buy a house too.

A HOUSE. I’m immediately buying a house. And it won’t have any of the landlord special qualities. Top tier construction, new appliances.
Pay off my moms debt. Maybe the rest of the money would be enough to buy her a house in south korea.
Property somewhere private near water or mountains.
Debts, portion in investments portion in high yield savings. Then, take a dreamy vacation. After this, I’m comfortable and settled.
The very first thing I would do is go get a new car. Mine is pretty much done. It’s not even drivable right now.
Pay off my debts and make those dentist appointments! I am ready for new teeth!
I’d dye my hair blonde

Start my own business
House.
The first thing is that I would anonymously pay for my niece’s education in full, if I could. If that were not possible I would pay off any debt my siblings have. It would be perfect because none of these people would take the money. They would want me to have it. So anonymously it would be perfect.
Take care of my debt then Anonymously donate lots of it
Pay off all my debts and my wedding. Then buy my fiancé a car.
I’m a simple person. I’d pay off my small amount of debt, and buy some new clothes. I already have my dream car that I bought for $15k in 2019, I’d probably get that tiny dent on the side taken care of. I’d probably just focus on stuff that makes me look and feel put together. Nothing crazy.
Scattered real estate so I can pick up & leave anywhere anytime just , dissappear.
I’d buy all my favourite albums on vinyl.
Find my dream house.
Pay off medical bills, and credit cards for medical bills. Then get my car and bike 100% before buying a home
I’d buy a newer car (probably not brand new but a nice upgrade), a nice little cottage by the water, get all my teeth fixed (Crowns are damn expensive!) and invest the rest.
Put it all into generalized investments and live off dividends. If there’s a good investment otherwise I feel would pay off within ten or so years, I’d look into it.
Paying our debt. Buying a house in full then pretending i am paying mortgage
Nothing. I save it all.
Buy a nice reasonably home and a good used car.
A camper can.

Order a big ass steak dinner lol
A house, a car, pay off debts, invest, and donate. It’s amazing how many of us have the same dreams in common.
I would buy a house, a car or two, nice clothes, and whatever else I could afford. And then I just wouldn’t tell anyone that I got a million dollars. I’ll lie through my teeth or just tell them to mind their own business.
College tuition
Giving my Mother whatever her heart desires
Pay off debt and go on traveling around the world
Give my boss money to help her reach her retirement goal (she works 7 days a week at 68). Use the rest to buy a small house in Finland.
Pay off mine and my partner’s debt.

Give the responsibilty of a decent amount of it to a financial manager to make it grow for later or figure out how to grow it myself, save some for emergencies & use the rest to fix the things I’ve got going on in my life.
put most of it in a savings account.
Pay off all my debts
My debt
Buy a house with no mortgage and then live exactly as I have been. Everyone would think I just have a big mortgage. (I live in Canada so 1 million dollars will buy you a decent house with closing costs and that’s it.)
a coffee and a pastry. I need a lil treat to celebrate this
[removed]
My house. My garden. No one comes over so no one would know
Pay off my debt, including student loans. Pay off my mom’s credit cards. Replace my car with something not expensive at all but with good gas mileage and space. Take my mom and kid on a vacation, probably Lego land. Pay my insurance off for the whole 6 months at a time each time it pops up. Put the rest in my savings to add to each payday so I can save up and get a place somewhere I want to live one day.
I would get a modest home in a place where there is grass and it doesn’t smell like…city perfume. Nothing fancy. I would put the rest somewhere to make enough to cover the yearly taxes. Will it to my kids. And then finally get some sleep.
My student loans
Pay off my debt, all of it. Then have a legit spa day to myself, upgrade my bathroom to add a tub, get a puppy and do pay for training in full. Go to the grocery store without coupons. Enjoy the small things. Put money in my 401k and start a Roth IRA. But my bills on autopay so I can get those discounts. Pay my insurance in full to save money. But new tires for my car because they are old.

Pay off my loans. Get a passport from one of the countries that lets you buy in.
