			After I recovered from the shock; I would hire an accountant with expertise in investments. I would buy some land up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina and build a totally eco friendly home complete with solar panels enough that I would be able to see power back to the grid. The house would have a few guest suites for visiting family and friends. I would donate some to charity and some to my kids. I would not quit my job as I am retired and a full time artist. I love the answers here!!!
