    I'm boring. I'd pay off my student loans and then buy houses for myself, my parents and my sister.

    I was thinking the same thing and paying those damn school loans off, then take care of the parents, they took care of me for 18 years.

    My Financial Adviser lives 1,100 miles away. The first thing I would do is buy him a first class ticket and Hotel to meet with me, so that I could sit down with him and make a plan. Then I would start designing my new life and the lives of my family.

    Very first thing? An iPad for my bf because he really wants one. I'd give it to him then ask him to guess how I had the money for it. :D

    A lawyer (if nothing else, to look over every word of any document I'd be signing that was associated with the winnings, let alone to create a very carefully structured will)...

    ...and then take care of my family...

    ...and then... in addition to creating college funds for my young relatives, and creating scholarships in honor of various friends and relatives who have passed, I'd be off to graduate school...

    I'd pay off my mothers debt, purchase property, new truck, invest. In that order.
