Tuition Money

If I was given roughly 80,000 dollars (estimated amount it costs to go to Illinois State University for four years), there are a few ways I would spend my money. To begin with, I would go directly to the bank and put half of the money in the bank. I would want to save some of my money and have interest grow so that I would later on, end up having more.
Next, I would I would go on a mini shopping spree. I would not go too out of control, but I would spend maybe 500 to 1,000 dollars at the mall! I desperately need new jeans and some other new spring clothes. I have never been to the mall of America in Minnesota so that would be the place I would go shopping first!
After going on my mini shopping spree, I would want travel to Europe considering I have never been there before. I would want to go Ireland because I am mostly Irish, and then I would want to visit Italy and Germany. I would want to visit the Shannon River in Ireland, and I would want to go to historical sites in Germany. I would want to also visit France and visit the Eifel Tower as I hear it is a beautiful place to be.
After a vacation to the countries in Europe, I would give some money to family, especially my mother since she has done a lot of me in past 18 in half years. After doing that, I would donate to foundations, organizations, and medical research (especially for cancer since a family member of mine passed away from the disease).
After all of my spending, if I had any mother left over, I would try to remodel some things in the house I live in now in order to help it sell as it is on the market! I would try to help pay for a remodeled kitchen and basement. Although I would not be able to pay for much, I would as much as I had left over into my family’s house remodeling fund.
