I would probably have a heart attack .. have a house built on 20 acres but only make the house about 2000 sq feet, buy 2 new trucks, pay my parents mortgage off, and live a comfortable life.. nothing big

LOL! Heart attack first sounds about right. Then I'd buy the biggest house I could find in Truckee, CA. Then I'd buy my mom a house and put my neices and nephews through college - and send them all on trips to Europe. Then I'd finance a bunch of no-kill shelters for cats and dogs and establish some rescue farms for horses. Then I'd kick back, paint a little, write a little and live the good life.

I would give to people who have made a difference in my life first. MY parents, close friends and family, wife's parents. Then I would go nuts and spend on my wife and myself.
