If I couldn't put it towards credit cards bills then I would definitely save it. I'm ready to get our savings up where it needs to be 3-6 mos worth of income and then I can start investing some for retirement.

I would invest it. It is very easy to say you won't live on it!! I know, because when we bought our house, we were like, dh gets a huge bonus every year (30 K) that they divide in monthly allotments. His company was going well, IS still doing well, and we 'couldn't imagine that it would ever go down, I'm sure it will only go up" WRONG!! Yeah, the company is still doing well, and he still got a decent bonus, but nothing like the 30K we were used to living on. Like $350 less a month

We are ok, but when we had some other unforseen expenses, that's where it got scary and we needed to start really penny pinching. So anyway, I'd definitely invest it and put it towards ds's high school or college tuition.
