I was at $1.528 on Friday, but probably lost $10k or more since I last checked. It’s not even real anymore. Still have $440k in debts to pay off and then I owe my kids a living so I will work / save for 35 more years.

90/10 equities/fixed income

Of equities, 75/25 VTI or equivalent/VXUS

Outside of these accounts I have a little home equity and a little bullion.

Pay off debt. Bankroll the last 20% of the next Gillian Jacobs film shooting this Summer in Germany and sell that fucker at Berlinale '25.

Bankroll my own film slate fund instead of hitting up the p/e crowd im talking to right now.

Pay off my aunt's house.

Fly my extended family out to Europe and get a chateau so all the cousins and all their kids can relax together and make some memories like we used to.

buy a small house and set up some kind of safe but unexciting investment plan (ETFs?) to handle property tax for as long as the rest will bear. i don't know what i'd actually do with my life if i quit working, so not much would change. i could spend it on small quality of life improvements, but i don't really care once stable housing is thoroughly SECURED for years and i have peace of mind from that.

Home improvements with half (which will creep into becoming most of it). Other half into the same mutual funds as the rest of my savings.

$1M isn’t enough to make any real changes. $10M is, though - I’d quit immediately if I got $10M after tax.
