First, I would contact my accoutant and find out the best way to collect it. Do I take it all myself and break it up, or bring everyone I would be giving money to with me as joint winners. LOL (The Wall Street guy is still lives inside of my head)

But if it were just me collecting...

First I'd pay off all of our debts.

While Lee and I are out shopping...

I'd go to my parents and ask them if they had $250k each to just spend on themselves what would they buy... Then go buy it for them. Do the same thing with Lee's parents.
They can do whatever they'd like with the rest we'd give them.

Set my nieces, nephew and Lee's niece up with trust funds.

Give our siblings a 'bag o money' each. (amounts would vary HAHAHAHA)

Then plan and take a trip around the world for a few months.

When we get home, go back to work cause Lee would have spent the rest shopping around the world LOL

It's a nice dream... but for now it's back to work for me Thanks Jason! I needed that diversion LOL

My best,
GA
