first thing I'd do is buy my mom a house and py off all our debt. It'd be nice to have some time alone as an adult without having to leave her homeless or whatever. Next I'd find a restoration shop for my truck, buy the shop and make them fix my truck. Why buy the shop? Why not I've always wanted to be an automotive restorer and now I've got whatever is left after taxes and fees. Then I'd probably have my own house built the way I want it. After that idk. I'd have more money then I'd ever know what to do with, have my own shop with the latest and greatest gear and the best mechanics around. I'd hav le my own house and my mom would be taken care of. I'd probably buy my best friend and her parents a house, afaik she still lives at home and her parents rent.so that'd be doing them a big favor.

First thing I would do is buy a house back near where all my friends and family live. I had to move 2000 miles away from everyone I know because it was too expensive to live there.

Good job taking care of your mom! It's the hardest job, but when you're done you'll have great memories.
