Get an ethical and highly skilled lawyer and financial expert, set up a trust to claim it anonymously, pay off my debt, charity donations, buy a house in Ireland preferably near the ocean, become a citizen of Ireland and never come back to the US other than to visit the gravesite of my parents.

Proactively make my current home handicapped-accessable for when my physical movement becomes more limited.  Install a top-notch security system.  Create a charitable trust.

I would get an attorney and an accountant and put half of it away for taxes.  Then take care of all my family and friends very abundantly  Then start doling it out to charities.

A ranch style house for us, a bigger house for my daughter, son-in-law and the baby, an education fund for our grandson, new cars for all of us and the rest would be split between St. Jude Childrens Hospital and Deborah Heart and Lung Hosptial.

Change my phone number, call my financial advisor and get the heck out of Dodge.

I have always wanted a house on the beach so I would buy a house on the beach and talk my daughter into moving close by to her own house on the beach.  Set up a trust for my kids and grandkids.  Buy a nice new car...and of course travel some.

What would I do? Take a deep breathe and relax.... because I'd know that I have plenty of money. Then, I would invest in worthy entreneurs' new start-ups....after funding the worlds greatest cat rescue organization on the planet.
