    I would use it (and is currently what I am doing) to put a down payment on a second house in the South. No one gave me the $100K I have though (had to work for it).

    I have no debt, and I'm a millenial. The government will take care of me in retirement and if I save for it it'll be seized anyway.

    I'd honestly buy a Mercedes C63 AMG and give the rest to friends and family.

    I'd go home.

    A small percentage would go to clearing all remaining debt for my family (which is only a few thousand on a car payment at the moment). Might buy a couple toys (guns, cooking equipment, motorcycle, who knows). About $50k-$60k would be invested. The remainder would go towards buying a few acres somewhere out west (Montana, Wyoming, maybe Oregon). If the remainder wasn't enough to do that, it would also be invested until I had enough assets to do so.

    But I don't expect anyone to ever hand me $100k with no strings attached.

    I would put part of it in savings and investments and the rest would go towards a down payment on land.

    Pay off all our debt (about $45K in school debt). Invest at least 10K in stocks. Get some better health insurance for myself and my wife. Finally buy a few of the guns I've been coveting. Get my wife some better advertising so her real estate career can finally take off.
