Just off the top of my head, because it is fun to dream once in a while!

1. Pay off all debts.
2. Set aside enough money to take the boys through their doctorates debt-free, if they so choose.
3. Pay for our nieces and nephews undergraduate degrees.
4. After that, then we would set up various investments so we can live on the interest.
5. Donate to the AOII Foundation (including endowing a scholarship for my chapter of initiation and the local collegiate chapter). I'd also earmark donations to Hosparus of Louisville, our local humane society and our local Golden Retriever rescue group,
6. Donate an equal amount to the charity(s) of DH's choice.
7. Home repairs. I doubt we'd move right now based on the boys' ages, but would definitely invest in some creature comforts and updates!
8. Travel. When I say travel, I mean wherever the heck we want in first class.
9. New--or newer--cars for DH & I. No, we wouldn't buy cars for the boys but would keep DH's current car for their use (it's 8 years old, in great condition and completely paid for already!)
10. Membership at Disney Beach Club Villas.
11. Upgrade our Blue Jackets season tickets to ice level.
