buy land : $70,000(few acres nothing extreme) probably in jefferson somewhere and build a house : $700,000

Sell the house, build another one with dream garage (and a pool ;)), put enough away for both girls to go to college, do some stuff for family members, buy a few cars and other toys. Probably still work part time though.

New age pirates? 🤣

Hospital, no prob, you have a staff AND an airstrip, not that far from places with hospitals…

> #1661 - Private Island, 681 acres with great elevations, secluded bays and beaches, fresh water, rich soil with fruit trees and tropical foliage. It is located a short distance from the southern tip of Great Exuma with close proximity to Georgetown. **This private paradise has its own 2,500 ft. airstrip that can easily be extended.** The main two-storey house with six bedrooms has spectacular views from every vantage point. This island retreat also features a unique two level observation gazebo connected by elevated walkway to the swimming pool and deck. Spacious and air-conditioned living quarters including games room, bar and gym. Ample staff quarters are located a discreet distance from the main house, whilst the resident caretakers live at the opposite end of this 681 acre paradise. The Island is large enough to be developed for a private resort or kept as an exclusive private retreat. Price US$19,300,000

Build a house for myself with a garage (equal to the size of the house or bigger) w/ a lift for the b/f and stock it with every tool he would ever need. prob give some money to my family (close family…no 2nd and 3rd cousin bullshit). buy all my friends any car they want. buy myself a few cars. Give some money to a charity. With the rest of the money… :dunno: maybe fill a pool with jello…cure cancer…save the money for a rainy day???

I’d stay in Pittsburgh. I’d buy a decent ~$500,000 home.

I’d buy 300+ acres in Northwestern PA and build a hunting lodge for my friends and family.

I’d build a massive well stocked garage with all amenities.

I’d build a street car that’s actually fast.

I’d buy/build/operate a 1/4 mile drag strip and keep it at least open for street cars every Friday and Saturday night 6PM-12PM between April and November. $20 for all the runs you can get.

I’d buy a few cars.

I’d give my close family members a few million each.

Live off the rest.

I’d move back to New England and buy a car. Then put the rest away for future spending…

And continue to work full time.
