$10,000

If I was the Youngers family I would really not know what to do with the 10,000 dollars. I think the smartest thing to do would be to either open up the liquor store or pay for Beneatha to become a doctor. It would be nice to get a house but you cant make any extra income from it. If Beneatha became a doctor she would be making a lot more money so they could probably buy a house, same with the liquor store. A house would be nice though because they need to have room for a new baby. No matter what they decide to do, they should not compromise their relationship as a family.
