i would DEFINITLY not take the LUMP sum. they RAPE you on taxes. rather, i'd take the payment period plan.

I would pay off the debt for all my closest friends, for others that don't have a debt, I'd buy a car. :D

I'd give a big chunk to my parents and family, I'd invest in quite a bit and live a very nice life

I would live off of the interest if possible (around 500k/yr), put it in federal and muni bonds. travel with friends and get a couple other degrees, start a business...

you could take lump sum and invest it all and make a shtload of money on compounding interest ;)


me personally, i would put it all in an ING account and live off the interest for the rest of my life (after buying all my toys of course)

I would pay off debt and invest. I would then use the money to make more money, have fun, and help as many people as I could each day.
