What Would You do with a Million Dollars?

If I suddenly found myself with a million dollars, I would
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Pay off my student loans an my mortgage. Get myself set up financially. Then maybe do some nice things for people when I'm able. Buy a prostitute.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:
"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."
For context, this is the previous verse:
"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

If I was just given a million dollars out of nowhere?
I'd probably pay off my oldest daughter and middle and youngest sons houses. Then give my youngest daughter enough money to have an incredible wedding and fantastic honeymoon.

Set aside half of it to think about. With the rest, I'd:
Make sure my girls graduated without college debt including grad school. Pay for the college of a couple other likely kids we know. Help my mother pay for step-dad's care.
Travel.

Keep on farming till the money runs out

I really have no clue. I've had a dream lately that I lived in an airpark in a 3-bedroom stone-siding home in a Texas suburb with a Cessna 172 in the hangar and a Ford truck in the garage (plus a few other things that would surely push it over a mil if it ween't already).
However, I have no dsir whatsoever to ever drive again, and feel like getting a pilot's license would make me even more anxious.
I'd likely put the money away,mostly, but donate 10% to Emily's Entourage or some other cystic fibrosis charity.

I'm actually doing ok farming. I'd probably buy more land, an irrigator, replace some more windows on the house, remodel the bathroom (it's hideous, 70s tile job), maybe get a decent computer . .
