(154,021 posts)Set up some trust funds for all my nieces and nephews. Worry about College? Not anymore.
The ones who already graduated will get a one time gift, if intelligent they will use it for their retirement, serious.
Perhaps buy a home and sell this apartment... definitely replace the truck, probably for a leaf or volt. I like the volt actually.
Home will get solar right out the bat... if we should decide to build, green all the way.
Use some quid to set a foundation to assist homeless vets.
Use another to set a foundation to help the Red Cross in Tijuana...
Invest wisely
Travel
Enjoy life...
Of course, first I need to actually win...
Oh and yes will remain a fighter for progressive causes.
