Take it to Wells Fargo bank and get a loan for $200,000.

Buy a property for $150, spend $50 doing it up and sell it for $270. Either that or stick it into a high interest account untill I thought up a business idea.

Invest it in ACAS, PPD, and UNTD.

Realistically, I'd probably use it as a down payment/working capital for a nice apartment complex.

Idealistically, I'd buy they MOST OBNOXIOUS home theatre system anyone had ever seen. I'm talking IMAX BITCHES!!! WHOOOOOOO!!!!

Give some to the poor and put some in the bank.

I like helping out the needy because 'give and you shall receive" but only if it is teaching them to fish.

"Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him for a life time."

Saving it, don't get me started on that. If you want to save it put it into your 401K plans that invests into those mutual funds. Saving money in the bank does not keep up with inflation, at least not in American. But honestly, you could be from some where else so...sorry for jumping to conclusions if you aren't from the United States

I'd probably re-invest most of it!

I'm from New York. What are some great ways to give money to teach others? I was thinking of giving loans with low interest rate (lower than banks) to people who have big ideas. Is this legal? Also, set up a scholarship and give it to those who don't have much money for college. Hopefully I will be doing this as soon as I make enough in Wall Street.

I have over $100K most of it is in mutual funds and I am about to stick $60k into a property. My business interests are all low start up affairs, why risk more than blood sweat and tears?
