what would you do?

hello BP.

i have been hanging around here for awhile now as a looker and there is some great information here. 

that said, my goal is to be a succesfull real estate investor. not a big time one one that allows me and my family financial freedom. So  here is my question, i know enough about real estate to be dangerous. 

From our tax refund we are getting money back. i need to use that money to pay bills that are in the rears. i also know that if i dont do something now next year will be the same as 2014. i cant live with that. 

What would you do? 

1. take the money and invest it in a quick turnover using real estate?

2. do as the wife wants and pay bills.

I dont know when ill get achance to have this kind of money in my hands that i dont have to pay back.

My credit is important to me, and is in bad shape i am working on fixing so borrowing is out.

i have sold everything that has value (except the dogs).

my plan would be to quickly find a wholsale deal that i can turnover within 7  days.

i am looking now and its tough finding the right deal.

thanks for any and all suggestions.
