That's a great question! Honestly, the first thing I do is get off the street because exposure is dangerous. I would need a cheap apartment and some type of minimum wage job. The challenge is getting both of those at the same time though because I have no fixed address and no proof of employment. With the car I might be able to make decent money in pizza delivery and be able to pay for insurance that way. With the three languages, I would then look for another, higher paying job where that could be an asset. Maybe a bank teller? Tour guide? The $100k is a huge asset if I ever decide to go to college but it doesn't really go far when it comes to financial independence.
