What would you do with a million dollars?

Buy a couple of flats and rent them out so I can have an income that doesn't involve a 9-5 job.

Invest some in stocks and keep the rest as savings.
 
First, I'd buy citizenship from St, Kitts and Nevis, renounce my US citizenship and then invest the remainder into blue chip dividend stocks and live out the rest of my life browsing the internet in some tropical country where my purchasing power would triple.

Deduct taxes, pay off my student loan (it's only like 15k) and mark the rest off as a donation to some charity for the homeless. I hate having large amounts of money.
 
Sit at home and smoke crack for the rest of my life.

In all seriousness, I'd buy my childhood house from my parents and live there. Track down old friends, possibly as well.

Invest enough for a comfortable yearly income. With the rest buy a reasonably sized house for a reasonable sum, Fort knox it inside and out. Turn it into a cat rescue resort. A couple of live in student vets (free accomodation etc) and a foster program for rehoming. Be the cat king I was born to always be.

Diversify among silver, gold, uranium stocks and crypto and buy nothing consumable except maybe just one nice pool orgy with 7 high end prostitutes and a very large bag of cocaine.

Pay off my student debt. Invest in a mutual fund (make more money). Travel. Probably use a fraction of it on dumb shit (video games, relationships, food).

serious answer: invest 900k into a very stable stock that pays dividends, and use the other 100k for vacation/fun/squandering money

Gonna go with this or something similar. Might share some with my few friends, depending, as I tend to be surprisingly frugal when I'm not buying alcohol
 
#0 2 Chicks at the same time (obv)
#1 taxes
#2 pay off all debts
#3 necessary dental work and cosmetic dental work
#4 Plug the rest into a IRA
 
Spend about 50k on a degree related for a hobby that I otherwise enjoy but is generally considered useless unless you're willing to work for degenerates (three guesses what I'm talking about).

But after that, I'd drop about 100-200K on a decent house (nothing huge or stupid expensive, but in a nice location and not falling apart) then put about 500-600K in savings to pay for the taxes for the next 50 or so years so I can get by working an semi-easy going job. I don't think dropping work all together is a good idea because sitting around all day doing nothing while completely shunning the outside world rarely tends to end well unless you're a creative genius, which last I checked, I wasn't. So having something to get me out of the house and bringing in a little extra revenue wouldn't be a bad idea.

I'm not sure if I trust myself to invest in something, but if my math is right, I'd still have about 150-250K left to burn, so it would be something to consider, though I'd have to do plenty of research so I don't end up giving a good chunk of change to some moron who's "make it big" plan hasn't even gotten out of the "mulling it around in my head" stage.

I'd buy a nice house, nothing too flashy, just enough to support me and any future spouse I might meet in the future. I would then fill that house will all the exceptional crap I've always wanted to buy like a suit of armour or other silly decorations. The rest I would think about investing in and maybe taking my family on a nice holiday.
 
Pay off existing debts, improve my home in various ways, do a little traveling, give my friends and certain family members each a nice gift and invest the rest.
