This is a fun one. The idea of this challenge is to say what you’d do in the first 24 hours if given a million dollars. I don’t know who originated this one, so please speak up if you know where it came from.

What would I do in the first 24 hrs with a fresh million?
1) Set aside 10% to make the world a better place. Yes, I’d give $100,000 of my million away. I am aware and very grateful that I already have it good, and that there are a lot of people who live in poverty, including refugees. There are also way too many animals in need. 
2) Hire someone to finish my house. We’ve been building an addition on our house for FIVE FREAKING YEARS! I’m over it. Get it done, already.
3) Invest $50,000 into cryptocurrency, and $50,000 (maybe more) into silver and gold. Speaking of, would someone be so kind as to show me the door into #steemsilvergold?
4) Pay off our debt. ‘Nuff said.
5) Buy tickets to a few music festivals. My man and I used to go to festivals every summer. Then we had kids. I’d like to have fun with him again on the dance floor, so I’d also fly 
6) Go shopping. I have too many clothes with holes in them. I’d rather spend money on organic food than replace my clothes, but it would be nice to refresh my wardrobe.
7) Go house hunting. Yes, I already have a house, but we’re planning to sell in the next year or two and move to a more progressive community in BC.
8) Send a portion to my parents. I have incredibly generous parents, and I’d love to send them a cheque to thank them for all the ways they've helped me in my life.
9) Order a custom Toyota Sienna. I will never understand why they don’t make badass mini-vans in North America. Whatever, I’ll make my own. The Sienna is the only van offered in AWD, so I’ll buy one of them and have a pop-top roof with a bed welded on top. Yes, I’m basically trying to make a dependable VW Westfalia. Then I’m gonna take that thing all over and meet as many awesome Steemians as I can. First stop, hot springs with 
I think that about takes care of the million dollars. Whatever is left over can go in the bank... or something.
