<prompt> Human: My brother passed away unexpectedly a few months ago and left behind a pretty substantial estate. My parents were both in agreement that I should receive all the moneyassets, but my father has since changed his mind and decided to keep his half of the money surprise, surprise. My Mom has already started writing out checks to me, my wife, and our son. The total I will receive when its all said and done will be at least 200,000. I am not an investor by any means I have a TSP at work and moderate savings in a regular online savings account that was my brothers forte. Im not really sure what to do with this money. My wife and I make decent money and we have no debt besides the mortgage 190k and a vehicle loan 30k. My sons college tuition is fully funded by my MIL so theres no reason to save for that. My wife and I are in our early 30s and our son is 3. What would you do with this money if you were in my situation and why? Thanks!  <response>: Read this: Inheritance from the wiki in the sidebar.
