What if you suddenly got 20,000 American dollars? What would you do with it? What about with 200,000?
With 20,000 - I'd probably just stick it into my savings, treat the family to a nice dinner, throw some cash to the parents and that's it. I'm a college student.... I'm in debt with an uncertain future.
With 200,000 - I'd still invest the grand majority of it. But I'd take a substantial chunk of that to go on a world tour of sorts to go to some of the places I really want to go. England, Germany, Vietnam, Japan, etc. One in a lifetime opportunity.

Do what I always do when I get cash. Take some to live with, and save some in the account I use for the money I will leave behind for whatever family I happen to have left when I inevitably die before everyone else.

Invest, save, travel.

Travel. The 20k, not so much, probably just America. 200k? Everywhere!

I usually go ~70% bills/savings, ~20% recreation, ~10% bankroll

It seems the economic climate has made you all rather responsible people. Capitalists would hate all of you.

I'd stuff all of It in the bank and let it fester and grow. Until I need to pay for college intuition and buy myself a nice small apartment because theirs a good chance that I'll have a distaste for roomie and prefer not to share the room.

200,000 I'd use part of it to pay for my last year of college, save the vast majority, and use the stuff I don't safe on a small international trip somewhere, where I don't know but probably someplace with cool historical sites.

I must say, having 200k randomly dropped onto your bank would make me feel quite a bit more confident in the future.
Unless rampant inflation renders the Dollar worthless, in which case it's a whole different game altogether.

I would stuff it in the bank. I have a low interest rate, so 20k or even 200k would be a nice boost

I'd buy some stuff I want that I haven't come around to getting yet and stuff the rest in my reserve.
