First, open up mutual fund brokerage account, signing myself up as my own advisor. The 70k or so after taxes would generate about $2100 in commissions to myself. Then could write checks out of it while still being invested in the market. Pay off a little credit card debt built up. Get living room furniture (new end tables, coffee table, long skinny table behind couch, wide screen plasma tv, new sound system). New computer, K2 Lotta Luv skis for the wife. Think about a new car, get a fence for the backyard instead.
