Just say you win a million dollars. The "catch", is you have to spend it all on one thing.
I'd maybe buy a farm, and use the million as far as it would go.
You?

Most million-dollar toys are just money pits after purchase. Airplanes, boats, cars... If I suddenly won another million, I'd put it right into the stock market.

More land.
But a million bucks doesn't go as far as it used to.

...ain't what it used to be.
I'd buy land and either build on it or set up a nice campsite.

I would buy a piece of land that borders US Forest Service land and maybe a state school section or two. I have several places in mind.

Talk to my financial advisor and see what she thinks. Known her for about 25 years and always bounce my money ideas off her first. My idea would be a mix of some recreational land and some mutual funds and possibly some into an annuity I already have.

I should have made it ten million, one million will not buy eighty acers in Iowa.

Got what I need.
Scholarships to various trade schools like auto mechanic, electrician, plumbing, veterinary, engineering, and so forth. No fluff or social degrees.

Either add some money to it and buy land, or invest in diversified stocks.
