On top of her head?
I would invest 1 million in:
A small solid house on a big piece of land in Central Texas. Approx 300k-400K
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

Substitue Atom and Audi for E39 M5, 997.2 C2S and mod the S2000. Also, I would open a bar.

In many ways, money is like fire.
A wonderful tool capable of doing fantastic things, or, a device that can destroy and even kill.
It just depends whose hands it's in.

If I'd had 3 million in my pocket when I was 16 I'd be broke, in drug rehab, and probably paying child support. If I had 3 million now I would hire an accountant, pay off all our debt, and live off the interest on savings and investments in a beach house for my baby and me 
Oh, and get my NSX
