    If someone gave you a check for $100,000 (hypothetical), what would you do with it?

    I would pay off my car/credit cards (19k), put $15k in savings for my son, purchase a new car for $20k to replace my 12 year old car, give $5k to my brother to help lower his mortgage balance, give a couple thousdand each to my nieces. Use the rest as a downpayment for a home.
