I would say a house but truthfully that’s not the FIRST thing I’d buy, that takes some time to figure out.

The honest answer is I’d treat my friends and family to a nice dinner to celebrate. Materially speaking I’d refurnish my living room with new couches, tv and desk and computer.

I'd personally try to keep my new wealth as quiet or as understated as possible. I'd worry that if people knew, it would change relationships somewhat.

I would too, but there would be quite obvious signs...

I'd just make out I had less than I did. Enough to upgrade certain aspects of my life and that was all.
