I've received a bunch of money and I don't want to just waste it away on bills. I was hoping for advice. "What would you do if you got your first $10,000, knowing what you know now?"

I'm unemployed at the moment because of Covid, but I've been given a sizable bit of cash by my father. $10, 000. It was wild. We're not usually able to throw that kind of money around, regardless of willingness.

Thank you for your consideration.
