U won the lotery?? Good for you! Go around the wourld buy a big house and a nice car, invest about 500,000 that way if the investment doesn't pay off you'll still have some money, don't spend TOO much on the house though, remeber there will still be water electric gas and security bills, not to mention the dreaded council tax! Give a million to charity, but don't go too wild with your money or before you know it it'll be gone and you will still need to pay out on your other bills! Good luck on your spending! Enjoy yourself! But don't go too mad!

try COD If the company is legit they will take this option but free shipping is another matter and usually reserved for those that can pay by credit card. Bill me later can occur an in house financ e charge COD is your best option but bug your parents to use their card to buy it for you and if you have the money you can just pay them right back.

Set up a charity account at your local bank, then advertise for donations, specifying it goes to that account.  The account should be handled by an uninterested 3rd party (no family members or close friends) such as an accountant or other business type volunteer, to both add legitimacy to the fund and keep people from wondering where the money is going.  You can collect money other ways as well, (fundraisers, etc) as long as the totals get deposited into the account for the reward.\n\nNOTE:  Lately there have been some very dirty handed people who have collected funds for so called reward accounts or to help someone with medical expenses that have been total scams.   You might run into a few businesses that are a little leary of helping because of that, so have your stuff together and have a letter from the account trustee showing the cash flow is legit.

Use the envelope system.  Make a realistic budget for each category and when you get paid put that much money into each envelope.  When the money in the envelope is gone you don't buy anything else in that category.

Borrow the money from a trusted person and work to pay it later, within a more reasonable period of time.\n\nor take the harder, longer road...\n\nFirst of all, think of what you are able to do: physical labour, mental one, translate from a foreign language, are good with people, can work nights and so on...\n\nthink abt the things u r willing to do ;)\n\nand if your sum is realistic\n\nLook in adds, go to places and ask if they have any part-time things you can do, look for desperate people who need ur services immediately and are willing to pay more. Do many things and save all the money.\n\nWork, work , work and try, try try...\nGood luck!

List your income.  Then subtract necessary expenses - shelter (rent/mortgage, utilities - gas, water, electricity, not cell phone, satellite, internet), food, clothing, transportation (gas, insurance, NOT auto loan), and emergency fund savings (more on this later).  Do you have money left over?  If yes, go on.  If no, you need to get a second job or do something (yard sale, eBay) to get more money.\n\nNext subtract discretionary expenses - life insurance (needed if you have dependents, not so important if you don't), auto repairs (oil changes, registration), home maintenance and repairs (if you own), cable/satellite, internet, cell phone.  Do you still have money?  Then keep going.  If no, is there anything you can cross off this list (cell phone, internet)?  Now do you have money left?  If so, keep going.\n\nFinally we get to debts - auto loans, credit cards.  List these in order from SMALLEST BALANCE to largest.  Put the minimum on everything except the smallest, and everything you have left on the smallest.  If you get to this point and the money's gone, you need to start making some calls.  Start with the credit cards - see if you can work out a deal for smaller payments or skipping payments for two months.  You may have to talk to a manager, but if you call before they start calling you, they're much more likely to work with you because it shows you WANT to pay.  Don't let them tell you what you need to pay - only YOU know what you can afford.\n\nDo you have an auto loan?  Could you sell the car, pay off the loan and get something CHEAP with the money left over, or are you upside down?  Either way, consider selling the car.  If you're upside down, paying off a part is easier than paying off the whole thing.\n\nAbout that emergency fund in savings - ALWAYS have money in savings for emergencies (like getting fired).  Bad things WILL happen (especially when you're down), so it's better to be prepared for them.\n\nI hope this helps.  If I can be of any more assistance, let me know.

You have to estimate all your monthly expenses, add them together, and subtract that from your total monthly income after taxes. You should remember some emergency funds and some "fun funds" as well as the basic necessities like food and rent, car insurance, etc.

First, I would make sure you have at least 3 months salary saved up at the bank or in a money market fund for an emergency fund. Financial disasters like getting layed off or sick happen to all of us.\nSecond, I would pay off all high interest debt. Pay off everything you can except the house mortgage. Paying off debt is one of the best investments you can make. You will have more money in the future because you won't have credit card bills to pay.\nThird, if you have money left, start investing in mutual funds. I like Vanguard.com, other people like Fidelity, TIAA-CREF, and DFA.  Buy no-load, low cost funds.  If you are like most people you will invest part of your money conservatively, in money market funds and bond funds, and part aggressively in stock funds. Vanguard.com has an on-line questionnaire which will give you an idea how aggressive you want to be. \nInvesting in a mutual fund IRA for retirement may give you an income tax break. Talk to your tax adviser. You may also be able to invest in a stock mutual fund via a 401K plan at work.\nBelieving someone you met over the Internet and know nothing about is risky.  Read these websites for further information.

First, pay off any and all of your debts leftover from it. Second, treat yourself to something nice. If you don't want to and/or have many leftover after that, third, you can put that money into a high-interest bearing CD for 2 or 3 years yielding 4 or 5%. I would normally suggest a mutual fund with moderate risk (60% stocks/40% bonds) but the way the markets are right now, it may be a mistake. If you want a promising return, put the money into a IRA and either invest in mutual funds or individual stocks. Some good mutual funds right now are probably International Stocks/Bonds, US Bonds, Money Market Funds, and Balanced funds (containing bonds and equities).

The first thing you need to do is sit down and figure out what your expenses are. What are the bills you *have* to pay:\nrent\nelectric bill\nfood\ngas\ncar payment\n\nThese are all non-discretionary bills\n\nThen subtract your total monthly non-discretionary spending from your total monthly income, this number is what you can use on discretionary spending. Then agree on a personal spending allowance (play money) for each of you that you can spend each month. If he wants a new toy then he's going to have to save up his play money. The rest of the discretionary money should go toward common goals like paying down your debts and nice things for the both of you.\n\nThe link below is a great link to an excel spreadsheet that helps you calculate this. Just plug in the numbers and it does the rest!

The best advice I can give you is to consult with a financial professional.  He can do a risk profile on you and help work with you to invest your money in a way that best suits your needs.
