    If I won a million dollars I would buy a nice car buy my daughter grandparents out so they coulld retire and enjoy the rest of their lives along with my sisters I’d pay for their bills. I’d buy some cloth diapers a house int he country and plentiful of land to garden on and raise cows and chicjens that can roam free. Last but not least I go around and get homeless people back on their feet, rehab, small apartment, what they really needed. Oh and I’d take my family ona vacation.

    I would pay off all my bills, buy a huge stash of cloth diapers, find a cure for lupus for my mom, and buy a home for my family.

    A million dollars… Build the house of my mothers dreams, and set up a bank account to pay property tax for it for a few years. College funds for my kids. Pay off our house. And diapers. Lots of diapers.

    If I had 1 million dollars I would buy a home and a nice suv for my family. I would also put a lot into savings for my two daughters. After I made sure my family wad taken care of I would definitely use some money for a nice vacation one with the family and one for mom and dad only 🙂

  • Andrea H said...

    As I was doing a diaper change last night, I was just thinking about an organization that my mom’s friend works with – it’s home that helps pregnant teenage girls who are homeless and have family to help them out. I was thinking it’d be useful for them to have a stash of cloth diapers for the girls that live there, to use for their babies. So if I had a million dollars, after I did all of the default stuff (pay off bills/mortgage, vacation for the kids, more diapers, etc), I’d probably take a wad of cash and buy a huge crap load of cloth diapers & wipes and children’s clothing and formula and donate it to the home.

    I’d also get myself an industrial sized freezer and fill it with those Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake ice cream bars, because those things are awesome. I loved being pregnant because I could eat an entire box of them in one sitting and not feel guilty because, hey, cravings.

    • Jenny B said...
      September 24, 2013 at 11:51 am

      *have NO family to help them out.

      Sorry, typo. I started thinking about those ice cream bars and was too distracted to properly proof-read my comment before posting. 🙁

  • Sara said...
    September 24, 2013 at 7:45 am

    With a milion bucks?! The husband and I have already discussed paying off debt so that I could be a SAHM. We would then get a car seat that rear-faces with a larger weight limit, an ergo, other baby items. We would update all our family’s cell phones, probably get a used car and SUV, then save.

  • Janice said...
    September 24, 2013 at 3:51 am

    I would buy a new house and farm closer to where my husband works. I would want a house big enough to host guests and volunteers with his organization.

    If I had a million dollars, I would buy a house. I would make sure my baby had the best cloth diaper stash in the world, and that he had everything he could possibly need. I would go back to college and get a better degree, and I would set aside money for him to go to college as well. I would take my little man to Disney World and watch his have a blast. Whatever was left I would split between charities & my savings account for emergencies.

  • Patricia B said...
    September 23, 2013 at 2:01 pm

    I would pay off my house, my car and my student loans. then I would buy my husband the truck he wants, and then set up bank accounts for my boys so that when they are old enough they will have some money. with what is left I would work things out so my husband and I could live comfortably. hey a girl can dream 🙂

  • Danielle D said...

  • Andrea Penner said...

    I would move to an acreage and build a nice (but modest) house, buy a new vehicle, travel to Australia, set aside some university funds for our children, and then give the rest to charity. I wouldn’t want our lives to change too much!

    September 22, 2013 at 9:34 pm

    I feel unoriginal after reading others’ comments, but I do think I’d buy a lovely house with that kind of windfall. I’d certainly plan to donate part, but you asked what I’d buy!

    I would get the heck out of this God-forsaken area, move back to my beloved mountain home and put my husband, myself and my oldest daughter at home through school. I don’t know if it would quite be enough but it would be a nice start.

  • Stephanie said...
    September 22, 2013 at 4:36 pm

    It’s hard to even comprehend a million dollars. I would first pay off our debt (student loans) and then would support the teen center where my husband and sister-in-law work. There are so many at-risk kids in our city, who just need someone to help them “find their feet”. It would be amazing to see what (almost) a million dollars could to do to support this city!

  • Laura Jacobson said...
    September 22, 2013 at 4:32 pm

    If I had a million dollars, I would move to a smaller home and buy my sister and her austistic son one right next door to me, and on the other side of me…I would buy my sons family one. My sons family had to move back home with me due to loss of a job…and I am so blessed to see my grandson grow everyday! I would love to have us all close by so we can see each other often and help each other out!

  • Tyler Reavis said...
    September 22, 2013 at 3:27 pm

    If I had $1mil, I would pay off our debt, buy a whole new wardrobe, go on a really nice vacation, & put the rest into savings. 🙂 I’m sure we’d make a few more big purchases…maybe a new truck.

    Put away money for my kids’ college funds. Buy a slightly bigger house with a bigger backyard. Buy a larger car. The rest goes into an investment or savings account for emergencies.

  • Jessica Long said...

    If I had a million dollars I would buy my wife a new wedding ring as her push gift. She lost her ring about a year ago and times have been too tough for us to really replace it. I would then buy a new car for my wife so that I wouldn’t have to worry about driving around in an old one with the baby. I would also pay off all of our loans and debt.

    Then I would buy her all the cloth diapers she wants and then take a class to learn how to use them 🙂

    A Million dollars?! I’d buy a nice home. Probably 4 bedrooms with a big yard or on a big property. I’d take a vacation with my husband!! I’ve never travelled outside of the United States so I’d take a trip to Europe. I’d make sure my parents and my husband’s parents are cared for as they age.

I would also like a newer car, but the current one still “works” so I guess just pay for repairs on the current one.

    First of all if I had a million dollars I would buy a big stash of cloth diapers. Then I would buy a big house, a nice car, a vacation home in Hawaii. I would also buy each family member a house, give to charity and make sure I had money for my kids college tuition set aside 🙂

  • rachael bolin said...
    September 19, 2013 at 4:28 pm

    First thing would be to get caught up on our bills and pay the lil bit we owe on our house. We would probably use the rest to repay my hubby’s parents for helping us out so much for the years. That would be the rewarding part! I hate being in debt

  • Annie Cernohous said...
    September 19, 2013 at 4:22 pm

    If I had a million dollars, I would buy a large RV! Pay off all debts, help my parents and siblings with theirs, and pack up all the little ones and travel the country while homeschooling. No better way to teach geography and history than to show them places in person! 🙂

  • Jessica said...
    September 19, 2013 at 1:47 pm

    I’d probably end up giving most of it away! My husband and I both work with at-risk, street-involved or homeless youth… And there is so much good that could be done in our city with that much money!

  • Jennifer S. said...
    September 19, 2013 at 1:28 pm

    If I had a million dollars, I’d buy a new car and take a dream vacation to somewhere tropical or to Europe! I’d probably do something smart with the money too, like saving or investing, and share some with my family. I wouldn’t know what to do with all that money!

  • Sarah said...

    If I won a million dollars, the first thing I would do with it is tithe ten percent. I’d then pay off our mortgage and car, give some to our parents, give to charity, and save the rest. Oh, and buy more cloth diapers of course! 😉

  • Ellen Frederick said...

    September 19, 2013 at 10:49 am

    If I had a million dollars I would pay off my house first. LIving debt free would be a huge relief. Then I would set aside enough money so LO could go to college. I would help out my family and pay off their debt, as much as I could. Of course I would go on a little shopping spree…get a full stash of cloth diapers so I don’t have to wash every day, get LO some cute new clothes, maybe a few new outfits for myself. LO is still very young and I’d love for him to see the world. We would definitely take trips every summer. I’d like to save most of the money – never know what could happen in today’s economy.

    With a million bucks, I’d pay off our house, get a new car, and help out a few of my favorite charities. Then I’d convert some more mamas to cloth diapering so I could set them up with cute fluff(my last is almost out of diapers!)

  • Kel. said...
    September 19, 2013 at 10:37 am

    I would buy all the cloth diapers I would ever need. Save lots for college for the kids and retirement!

  • Rachel Legoute said...
    September 19, 2013 at 9:57 am

    If I had one million dollars…

    If I had to pick ONE thing that I would buy if I had a million dollars, I think I would have to say a home. I can’t imagine spending that much money on one home, so I’d probably buy a home here in the States and one close to the city where my husband grew up overseas…

    But even that wouldn’t be enough to use up one million dollars…so I would probably think create and endowment or investment fund so that the money made from it could be invested into the charities with which I work, and I could actually be the person giving money to the causes that I love so much, instead of always having to ask others to give to them.

    I’d also probably buy some more of the new elemental diapers. I think I love them.

  • Tracy said...

  • Rebecca said...
    September 19, 2013 at 9:38 am

    I would start by buying a house (as we having been living in an apartment). Whatever was left would take much prayer to determine the best use for it at the time.

    September 19, 2013 at 9:25 am

    If i had a million dollars i would hire a maid! I hate house cleaning. As far as what i would buy… i think we would just pay off our mortgage and other loans. A nice shopping spree where i could hire people who have some fashion sense would be nice too! I have absolutely no idea about what is fashionable!

  • Brandi M said...
    September 19, 2013 at 8:49 am

    With a million dollars one could buy anything really but I would go a different route. Being a stay at home mom things are tight most of the time and this makes my husbands role as the money maker hard. To make his life easier I would start my spending by paying off every debt we had then get rid of the junky car he drives to save us money ( while leave a new car behind for me and the kids to keep us safe) and buy him a newer car. Then I would pay someone to finish his household honey to do list so he no longer has to have that over his head. I would live the “greener” lifestyle I have always dreamed of but couldn’t afford, by buying more cloth diapers and making our home more energy efficient. Finally I would donate to others so they may suffer less and live life more fully.

  • Tiffanie Terry said...
    September 19, 2013 at 8:36 am

    If I had a million dollars (after sharing it with my parents and in-laws), I would purchase a lot more land for our farm. There is nothing better than having room to roam and reflect in privacy. Plus, my husband enjoys farming, so it would be a win-win!

I would give money to my old youth pastor who is now a missionary in brazil who provides water filters to the people on the amazon. We would adopt a child and put money aside for all of our kiddos for school, weddings, and anything else that could come. Would put money in a high interested savings. Yea I have NEVER thought about this….lol!!

  • Maria said...
    September 19, 2013 at 8:18 am
