I'd become debt-free, rent an apartment, buy a new guitar and a new bass alongside a shitload more effects pedals and a pedal board, put together a beastly bitcoin miner, and expand my record collection. After that, I'd probably invest in various rock and metal t-shirts and sustainable volumes of a wide variety of mind-altering contraband.

Id buy a house first decent size, out of the way with a small bit of land for a glasshouse and growing my own fruit and veg etc. Id have loads of trees all around for privacy and plant loads of pines so i could inoculate beneath with amanita muscaria.
Id sort my family out and a few good friends.
Id then travel the world to donate money to all the smaller conservation places that are saving land and breeding animals, not the big ones who take money and do shit, all the small ones that are making a difference.
Then id come back to my new glasshouse and grow cactus and other things commercially, not because i needed money, for fun and to spread them far and wide,
Id buy lots of animals to keep and look after.
Then id just travel around the world, and grow things at home use lots of Entheogens ha! Id be quite content.
Maybe bang out a sprog to leave it all too hahahaha Or leave to charity, not letting government take it.

I'd give it all to those in need like the poor, or those who are ill and in need of immediate medical assistance. I wouldn't keep a cent.

I'd probably give my mother a new home on the beach(her dream). She has sacrificed so much for her own children, worked 2-3 jobs a week just to get us food on the table and clothing, the child support from my father helped pay for rent, but life has just been rough.
I'd Pay for college for my brother and sisters. Help me Get through med school. Invest intelligently.
Then move to Seattle, Washington. As for the rest of the $$$, I'm indecisive at the moment. Probably donate lots of it to the poor, find homeless men on the street and do stuff like this

Money would be better spent going towards a mutual fund of some sort rather than directly to a charity. That way, you could invest half of the interest gained per year into charities, and allow the other half to continually build. That way you would make a powerful contribution every year, and could establish an estate that will keep doing so long after your dead, giving money to whatever charities you approved of in life.
This is how the Nobel Peace prize has continually payed recipients each year since it's inception, with payouts that gradually increase each decades and stay well ahead of inflation. The starting sum he left to start the foundation was 9 million dollars, a lot of money in the late 1800s.
Granted, 10 million won't get as far today as 9 million did back then, but there is plenty of charitable causes that are arguably more worthy of the same funding technique as the Nobel prize, and that you could potentially make less political and less corrupted after many decades pass.

First I'd buy a house somewhere in the neighbourhood here. Then I'd buy a nice, but not extravagant car.
The rest of the money I'll use to live off modestly, as I live now, so that instead of grinding away my life for some huge corporation, I can spend all my time doing work in the community. (Nature organizations, mental health care, care for the elderly, organizing neighbourhood parties.. I do all that anyway, but it sucks that I need to have a job so I can't focus on what is really important. Money like that would change everything.)

I would build a fortified self sufficient off the grid xeriscaped horticulture forest compound by a lake deep in the woods with a massive deep underground bomb shelter / bunker underneath it that is also food producing and self sufficient, with geothermal and solar power, gardens and greenhouses , livestock, etc.
Essentially I would attempt to construct a home base that would be capable of preserving my life and my wife's , as well as our carefully selected group of people, through the coming global methane cataclysm .

Well I lost it all. Took me 2 months to gamble it all away on what I thought was a sure thing. Funny, thought I would be crying in a corner having lost 10mil (and if this was real let's face it I probably would be), but am doing ok hehe.
Was actually going to throw a good $500-1000 real dollars on it, but lost that money months ago . It was worth 10,000,000 hypothetical dollars to see this upset, but only hypothetical dollars - thanks for this epic question Asante. Am broke

wow....10 million....thats a lot of dough.
I would first pay my debts, then buy some cool ass toys, cars, boats, jet skis, quads, mini helicopters, private jet maybe.
After that, i would hope to have a few million left i would get a house.
Then next i would buy some land and make a huge orphan compound and make a nice little community with outdoor and indoor activities, its own school, and "how to take psychedelics" courses of course 
Then i would get into flipping old shitty houses into modern masterpieces. That would be fun.
I would also make some sweet Marketplace contests here for some lucky shroomery members 
After that, i would hope to have a million left and be bummed i spent it all and hope to retire and travel the world.

First thing I would make sure several people I know who're close to me had their lives set, so this would leave me with 5 million.
My brother might have a kid soon, so he would be my first priority, and would give him 1.5 million, and I would give some money to my mom but she has some money coming to her when her dad dies, and she's getting older, so don't know how much to give her, but probably at least 1.5 million, and I would set it up so that whatever money she had left over when she died went to my brothers kid, and the two kids mentioned below, but only to the kids, not to myself, or my brother.
I know two kids that went through a touch time in the past because their parents were young and dumb, and I would set up some type of fund for them to have access to when they reached 21 years of age, or if they needed it for college, I would make it so only the kids could access the money, nobody else. I would give these kids 1 million each, leaving me with 5 million.
Then I would buy something that I could travel around the country with, nothing to fancy, maybe a Jeep with a popup camper on the back, and two decent bicycles to throw on there, and some proper camping gear.
I would consult with someone about finances, and see how much I would need to save in order to live a decent life the rest of my life, but I wouldn't want anything extravagant, that lifestyle turns me off, and with that amount of money I could figure out how much I needed to invest in certain things which would continue to make me money, and how much I could spend on traveling around the country and helping those in need.
I would put 1 million in the bank and from that buy my Jeep, popup camper, and gear I would need to travel around, then use the other 4 million to go around the country and make a positive impact on as many lives as I could. I would avoid major charities, and would rather see someone that needed something, and help them out that way, this would be more hands on I think, and that would be cool to actually see someone benefit from what you have given them.
You know see someone that needed an operation, and pay for it, build a house for people that needed it, find a family that was in debt, and take them out of it.
I would definitely try to find something to invest some money into, this way I could still have income coming in, maybe I could find a way to start a small business, you see people win the lottery then go broke from helping others out, I wouldn't want to be that way, I would be smart about it.
It's easy to be grateful with a large sum of money, and want to share that blessing with others, then next thing you're broke, so some wisdom would be needed when dealing with a situation like this.
I would probably like to get a business up and running which was involved in medical marijuana. I would not want to stop working because when I stop working/creating, I get very depressed. So after I helped some random strangers out around the country, would probably buy a very small home to live in, and then put the rest of my life into medicinal cannabis. Or perhaps I would buy a few trailers in different parts around the country, this way I could travel from coast to coast.
The video below really hits home with me, and I feel like the medical cannabis field to be one worth investing money in because it's on the up and up, and seems like a good field to get into because there's room for growth there.
