What would you do with 1 million dollars?

Aside from all of the obvious. . .pay biils, pay off mortgage, help family, bank accounts for my sons. . .I have always had a dream to do something for a little pueblo I visit often in Mexico. I want to put computers in their school with internet access so that these kids, many of whom have never left their little village, can communicate with the world. . . I think of the possibilities for teachers and education and what not. . . .Teachers can "share" a classroom online. . Students can have "electronic" study groups. . . These kids will be able to access the info on the world wide web for their homework, learn the basics of a computer. . . both of these things are totally unknown to them. . . . If I had a million dollars I would continue to "work" in the sense that the above dream will require work even after computers are purchased and little pueblo is wired. Besides, a million dollars today, well taken care of and invested (CDs,401k,IRA, ect.) will last longer than I will live. I hope that doesn't sound to corny, but that really is my dream. Everything I do online to earn an income is not to make me rich. Sure, I want to pay off my mortgage. But I am very happy with my house, my car, my life. I only need and want so much and the rest of my efforts is for this little village that I have sort of adopted.

I would pay off my bills, buy a house for me and one for my sister and her kids. I would help some freind out with some bills and maybe buy them a car. The rest of the money would be in the bank. I agree with you on staying working. I would stay working just to stay busy otherwise i would be shopping everyday and spend all of my money..

Id pay off all my bills and put the rest in the bank and live off the interest and never have to work again with the and id deffiently go on a world cruise .
