I would:

• Buy a FU environment Car, and use 100% of the speedometer because I paid for it.
• Buy a FU sized house, and fill it full of ballpit balls, cocaine and hookers.
• Buy a FU size music venue, pay U2 to play at the venue, give free entry to everyone and arm them all with 4 cartons of eggs each.
• Throw a massive FU party on the biggest ocean cruiser, invite only the top 10% of richest people. Then scuttle the thing.

Do I have any money left?

• 50% goes to developing Australia.
• 25% goes to the Linux foundation.
• 20% goes to whoever is still alive in my family.
• 5% goes to lizards on the internet, because frankly, the cats are getting too much attention and they are wayyy overrated.

I’d buy the condo my wife and I are renting. We really love it and the owner wants to sell it, but our monthly payment would almost triple.

Id also get a modest car, like a Corolla and a house in the countryside.

I guess this is not too wild, so I guess I’d also by a server rack to selfhost random stuff.

Buy a house I like better. Get some large windows, better insulation throughout the house, some small degree of soundproofing between first and second floor, and pay for some serious landscaping in our yard.

There are a number of people I would need to say “fuck you “ to

Relax.

Pay someone to organize all my stuff and buy the proper closets, boxes, etc everything. And bring my mom to where I live and give her a better life.

Pay everyone in my building several years' expected pay to quit all at once, except for one specific manager that everybody hates.

I'd pay my debts first and then travel.

First thing I would do? Without question a year-long holiday. I haven't had more than a few days off at a time for over five years.

Pay my parents retirement.

Buy a bowling center.

Buy a gaming PC and a VR headset, and then put all the money in investments and quit my job.

Besides debt and housing I would just take my partner on a lot of trips and buy her a lot of gifts. It’s been a rough few years health-wise for her and it would be great to treat her.

Go back to school start taking classes that actually interests me, instead of for a stable job.

Reminds me of a quote from the TV Show Billions.

“What’s the point of having ‘fuck you’ money, if you never say fuck you?”

• Bobby Axelrod, Billions.

However to your question, live life the way I want. Simple as that.

I’ll pay all my debts and that of my parents and then start a new life in Hawaii

Finish the home remodel. Then try to find the best approach to handle riches I guess. Taking care of the kids, getting them towards an exiting life. Support my wife with her entrepreneurial dreams. Make sure my mom is well.

Pay the new car I just signed for, buy a teardrop trailer and go camping out in Europe.
