What to do with $1,000,000.00?

[Kevin S.]

I wonder what do someone approaching retirement do with $1,000,000.00?  Buy a single property with cash and have about $65,000/yr in cash flow or use it for DP on a $4,000,000.00 property?  Would the cash flow be the same?  Or leave it in SP 500 ETF?  The question is probably over simplified but a good starting point for feedback.  Thanks.
