If I had $3M, I'd buy property.
I would invest 1 million in:
A small solid house on a big piece of land in Central Texas. Approx 300k-400K
Atom 3 for the weekend. Approx 70K + Track Membership at Harris Hill Rd.
Family car. (TT V10 Audi Station Wagon
)around 600K so far give or take a few....
200K to my parents to help with whatever they need.
200K to various charities.
The other 2 Million would sit in a bank account/CD depending on the market. The interest would pay off most of property tax for the house.
I would continue working and growing my career and my family and adding to my $2 million.
Eventually I would either use that money fund my own business, or use it as a venture capitalist to fund someones great idea... Win/Win Situation

3 mil just isn't enough to do anything with. I'd probably just save/invest most of it. I might buy a Porsche, and I might buy a house on a couple of wooded acres, but that's about it. If you start spending it, it'll be gone too fast to remember.
