Paid off my house, bought two more houses as rental properties that bring in $1,600 and $1,700 a month around Denver, spread some out in market investments, and set up a trust for my son when I broke out and sold part of my company in 2012. Splurged on a new car for my wife recently and a couple toys for myself and we live comfortably.
It was exciting to see the money in the banks at first of course but it didn't last long because money in the bank doesn't do anything for anyone unless you enjoy giving the bank free money to lend and earn interest. I still work my ass off every day to try to continue making what I can before my stress kills me early and everything goes to my wife and son.
